In this 2.5 hour workshop we will start by looking at the different parts of a monster and drawing as many variations we can come up with. How many monster eyes can we think of? How many mouths? And so on. Next, using a collection of different templates (based on the four basic parts of a letter) we will spend some time forming as many letters as we can. Finally we will form and draw our initial, add our monster elements, outline and colour. Participants will get a monster alphabet poster to take home and colour. 

In this 2.5 hour workshop we will start by thinking about what makes a mermaid a mermaid and how we can make our letters feel “mermaidish! Tails and scales? colour? Shells and bubbles? Then we will practice drawing these elements. Next, using a collection of different templates (based on the four basic parts of a letter) we will spend some time forming as many letters as we can. Finally we will form and draw our initial, add our ‘mermaid’ elements, outline and colour. Participants will get a mermaid alphabet poster to take home and colour.
