Mrs Wordsmith’s Illustration Workshop at Greyfriars

About the workshop

We had the absolute pleasure of spending the day at your child’s school, running a series of illustration workshops. Led by one of our talented Art Directors, these workshops were designed to help students in Years 1, 2 and 3 invent and draw their very own characters. Illustration is a big part of how to tell a great story, so we shared our top tips such X and Y. We were blown away by the creativity we saw, which really inspired us – and we hope your child has come away feeling inspired, too!

Spot your illustrator at work!

Here are a few of our favourite moments from the workshops. Have a scroll through the photos and see if you can spot your child working on their very own illustration (which we highly encourage you to look at up close!)

This website and photos will be available until the end of June/2025
