Children’s Book Creation Workshops (Monthly Club – All Welcome!)

October 10 @ 10:00 am 1:00 pm

Cornish Craft Barn CBW-Monthly-Club
£18.00 Half day session! Includes access to our extensive art materials (including paper) and refreshments including homebaked café cakes.

In this monthly workshop series, we will apply the principles of numerous well-known children’s authors and illustrators, review good practices from our carefully curated CCB library of children’s books, and unlock our creative illustrative skills through explorations with unexpected materials during each session. We will draw from our imaginations, capture the essence of a story, and produce our visuals around a well-crafted narrative, whether with rhyme, alliteration, playful repetition, or even wordless. Let the illustrations tell the story!

Please sign up to our regular Children’s Book Illustration & Authoring workshop series (3 introductory sessions) before signing up to this monthly club 🙂 The three session induction ensures you then attend the club with our project(s) developed enough to get value from the monthly session and your peers.

In these fun, hands-on-from-the-start workshop sessions, you will continue to:

  • Apply good practice for a wide variety of picture book types
  • Develop a plot structure and storyboard it
  • Work on character development (written and design)
  • Look at writing techniques and styles
  • Create a book dummy for words and pictures
  • Develop your style and approach for page spreads
  • Explore illustrative techniques and unusual materials
  • Design your book cover
  • Cover final artwork and book design file for submission

Plus much more. Join today and lose yourself in a rewarding and fulfilling experience with peers, while also developing their projects. We’ll develop the knowledge and tools to produce an end product that we can be proud of, share with family and friends, or even publish.
