I'm sorry I keep mentioning it, but April really has been the busy one for Comic Art Masterclasses. A flight to Dublin and two flights to Edinburgh, along with trips to everywhere from Preston to Grantham to all points inbetween. Not bad going, though I say so myself. Here we end the month in Aylesbury, Brixton, Livingston and Glasgow.
Rise Aylesbury is a college, rather than my usual primary and secondary schools, so I was doing a one off class, and offering career advice, to 17 to 25 year olds. They seemed to enjoy it, I hopeI didn't put too many off a career in the arts.
Jemima's Birthday Party in Brixton was another one of those novel events that I do from time to time (and am happy to do, please get in touch) trning my class into 90 minutes entertainment for nine year olds. Amazingly they love been told to sit down and work and learn stuff.
I returned to Williamston Primary in Livingston for a second day, following last week's splendid day. Not only did they come up with great stuff, but they were another group of younger-than-I-usually-work-with Primary 3s (that's Year 2 in England). They did great. Also bought lots of books, so I'm not going to nit pick.
St Francis of Assissi Primary in Glasgow rounded off my three weeks of flight-based travel with a couple of cracking comics. That's supposed to be Erling Haaland on the left hand cover, based on one of the titles they rejected, though he wasn't the celeb they chose for my demo strip.
The celebrities these six groups chose to appear in my demonstration strip were Jesus, Sherlock Holmes, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Michael Jackson, and Elon Musk.
