Had a splendid time with Abbotswood Junior School's Art Club recently. They have a well led, and so well attended, club meaning the children are all raring to go and keen as mustard. Armed with their fancy new pens and sketch books I took them through some cartooning basics, showing them different ways to build an interesting and fun character before they had a stab at it themselves followed by some constructive critique. It was all over a bit too soon, but appeared to be left with the inspiration to carry their cartooning forward to greater things.
