Free Drawing Workshop: Turn yourself or your loved ones into a fantasy character

Details

This is not just a character design workshop — it’s a storytelling experience.

In this creative session, you’ll design a fantasy or sci-fi character based on a real person: yourself or someone you know. Whether it's your mom’s magical gardening skills, your best friend's chaotic brain, or your own inner world — we’ll guide you through turning those real traits and stories into compelling visual elements.

You’ll learn how to:
Find character traits that matter to you
Turn narrative into visual design through mind maps, keywords, and visual research
Use basic principles like shape language, silhouette, and pose to express personality

By the end, you'll walk away with an original character design that’s rich with story, emotion, and imagination.

🛠️ What to Bring
Drawing tools (iPad, sketchbook, pens, etc.)
A photo, story, or object that reminds you of the person(don’t need to be printed. Photos in your phones are enough! )
A phone or any digital devices that can access wifi in the library(for visual research)
Openness to mix emotion, narrative, and imagination

💡 Who Is This For?
This workshop is beginner-friendly, but also rich enough to inspire experienced artists. Whether you draw often or haven’t drawn in years — this is a space for creative transformation and shared inspiration.
