Award winning Author Isobelle Carmody travels a lot and not just in a geographical sense. She has also traveled through many different genre while following the story road. She began to illustrate her own work twenty years into a career made of words, and found there were new stories she could tell with a combination of words and images. She has worked with artists on graphic novels and while doing her PhD kept a graphic journal which will be published. Her most recent project is merging her art with another illustrator to produce a Little Fur graphic novel.
She is offering a special two hour workshop that will introduce those wanting to make a foray into the world of words and images to the many different ways words can be enhanced by images. Those attending will learn how to create images that work even if they (think they) can't draw, and they will come away with a basic understanding of how a graphic novel works.
This workshop is suitable for children aged 10 years to adults.
