Your Subject: Cartoon Drawing and Non-Representational Illustration

  • Stove Works 1250 East 13th Street Chattanooga, TN, 37408 United States (map)

Join Artist in Residence Paul Peng for a drawing workshop in the classroom!

Is your comics drawing experience haunted by the desire to desire something new? Does a cartoon picture of a monster boy in a strange situation leave you in a deep quandary over the ontological status of The Drawn Subject? If so, join us for our upcoming experimental cartooning workshop facilitated by November 2024 Stove Works resident Paul Peng. Join Paul on a series of collaborative exercises and activities in non-representational drawing, illustration, and storytelling to show how you, too, can draw something that makes you feel weird. Don't miss this chance to figure out what we mean by this!
