Cartoon Doodles at WDC
Spent a long but rewarding day yesterday at the Winchester Discovery Centre helping children to cartoon doodle to tie in to WDC’s Jon Burgerman’s Brain Drain exhibition (if you’re not familiar with Burgerman, click here).
My aim was to share some cartooning skills and encourage some spontaneous drawing to result not in a specific finished scene but a sea of inter-weaving characters and objects. None of it is planned, you just start in one corner and get drawing - and see what appears.
The morning session was aimed at younger children (5-7) while the afternoon session for older kids (8-12). I’ll post some examples from each session in second, but meanwhile, here’s one I did prior to the day to show the attendees what I had in mind.
