South Ken Kids Festival
Im very very excited about the South Ken Kids festival next month.
The line-up is really AMAZING... have a look... quentin blake / marc boutavant / kitty crowther
the entire list is really amazing, ive really never seen such an exciting line-up like that before and im very honoured to be alongside those names
Quentin Blake, Stephanie Blake, Marc Boutavant, Lauren Child, Kitty Crowther, Polly Dunbar, Sara Fanelli, John Hegley, Joëlle Jolivet, David McKee, Julien Neel, Axel Scheffler, Viviane Schwarz, Hannah Shaw, Olivier Tallec
I will be doing 3 different events. see my events page here. It includes a DRAWING DUEL with Joëlle Jolivet .... Im not exactly sure what is involved but im sharpening all my best pencils in preparation (owl is sharpening his beak just in case it gets nasty)
The full programme can be viewed from here
PS if you look on the website you might see a stray owl has accidentally fallen in there. we are very sorry about that. myself and owl are working on our professionalism over the next month to make sure this wont happen again.
..................
SOUTH KEN WORKSHOPS
We also did some school workshops and invented our own little stories
In the original early version of the story owl bumps into animals on the way down when he falls from the nest. So, in the workshops we invented some things that could happen to owl on his fall. Here he bumps into birds/down chimneys and into the mouth of a crocodile! Fold a page in half and do a before and after fall!
