Scooter McKenzie's Cartoon Workshops for Adults

Picture
Even if you were terrified of art lessons at school, you'll enjoy one of my cartoon workshops.
Join in and learn skills you can share with family and friends.

You'll wonder why you don’t draw every day.
We all did art at school and yet as adults we never draw at all. I think that's a bit sad.
This isn't an art class where you'll be judged, marked or criticized in any way.
All I'm saying is, let's draw some funny faces and remember how much fun scribbling is.
Within the first few minutes we'll move all the way from stick men to making your very own characters that can show a whole range of emotions and expressions.
Don't believe me? Put me to the test.

What's it all for?
It doesn't have to be FOR anything... BUT, if you want a reason to book me:
• I can entertain your group as a guest speaker with an interactive show that they'll all enjoy and talk about.
• If you're doing some staff training, I can be the warm-up to the main event to lighten the mood and show that learning new skills is easy.
• Imagine sitting down at a family gathering and showing everyone how to draw cartoons. Coolest Uncle/Auntie status is guaranteed.
• What if your kids put down the computer games and watched as YOU taught them something
creative and constructive.
• Maybe, just maybe, you might want to make more of this new talent. Create your own greetings cards, liven up an email, draw your own Facebook Profile Picture or add a humorous finale to the company Powerpoint presentation.

Workshops usually last one to two hours.
A humorous illustrated talk about my life as a cartoonist is also available for those less able to join in.

• Fun   • Interactive   • Educational.   Discover the cartoonist within you!

Testimonials

Thank you so much for running the two cartoon workshops at Abingdon County Hall Museum for the Abingdon Arts Festival 2009.
They were both a rousing success. You led the activity really well, and the glowing praise from the parents and children after each event was extremely gratifying for the Museum.
Your warm approach and attitude made it a relaxed and enjoyable experience for our staff.
Hopefully, you will be able to fit us in, on your inevitably busy schedule, when we reopen in a few years time.

I employed Peter Bellingham (aka Scooter Mckenzie) to run cartooning workshops as part of a family day, on the recommendation of a colleague who had seen him at Abingdon Museum. He ran several sessions throughout the day and had everyone from toddlers to grandparents joining in at the same time. He was able to skilfully adapt to all of these different participants so that everyone enjoyed and gained from the experience. It was lovely to see different generations working together in this manner.  He was very patient, with a calm method of delivery.  Participants learnt a lot of techniques and I’m sure that many of them will have been inspired to carry on.
I would recommend him to any other organisation looking for a fun and informative activity.

Peter has now done two cartooning workshops for East Midlands Mensa that have entertained and enthralled dozens of members. Peter makes it all look so easy! Lots of fun for all ages.
