This Sunday, July 12, Franklin Einspruch will lead a workshop, “Using Your Head to Draw the Figure,” at the Boston Comics Workspace.
You can reserve your spot (for a mere $10) at Eventbrite.
This workshop will cover the basics of drawing the human figure out of your imagination. It will introduce a simple system that relies on proportion, geometry, and just a little bit of anatomy to get a drawing of a person to read well in a panel. The artist can elaborate on this system to make figures appropriate to any genre, from superhero to slice-of-life. We will also talk about working from reference.

BCR’s Jonny Bloozit’s epic spiritual noir “The Nowhere Man” is Kickstarter-ing. Jonny is raising funds to collect his fabulous minis in a larger-format, perfect bound graphic novel. Will your children someday look up at you, with wide, innocent, trusting eyes and say “What did you do when The Nowhere Man was on Kickstarter, (daddy/mommy/parental designation of your choice)?”
What will you tell them?
