Minnesota Centre for Book Arts - online teaching 2022

Drawing in Books
Workshop Dates: Saturdays: April 16, 23, 30 and May 7
This virtual workshop, led by Netherlands-based illustrator and visual artist Babette Wagenvoort, is an invitation to sketch, play, and think about ways you might incorporate drawings into prints and artist’s books. Experiment with several ways to use drawings in books—from the many benefits of using a sketchbook, to drawing used in book art, to illustration and sequential drawing. Practice drawing and sketching through live exercises during the workshop. You will be invited to continue building your skills outside of the workshop and to create an optional independent project. This workshop is open to anyone who would like to
explore drawing. No prior experience is required.
