Year 2 illustration show


Joanna Keys, Abbey Massey and a small friend selling a selection of handmade books at the 2nd year end of year show "Lead". Held in the George Rodger gallery at Maidstone, it was a triumph. They are looking particularly happy to have prized £2.50 out of me for a catalogue. A bargain as it turned out, as it will inevitably become a collectors item.


Course Leader Neil Breeden ensuring quality control over the various refreshments available.


Some damn fine work by the student known as Lucy Parris. This is just a taster, more soon.

Comica




We had a great day at Comica last Saturday April 21st.
Current students and staff as well as recent graduates of the course showed their books and zines – all very unique and beautifully made. We enjoyed the live drawing taking place in the Great Hall of Bishopsgate Institute with creators including Tom Gauld, Simone Lia, Darryl Cunningham, Andi Watson, Mark Stafford & many more…
We saw some great new books by NoBrow and we discovered Aben Maler, a small Danish publishing company with very interesting titles – have a look here. We had fantastic feedback and we look forward to coming back in November with more books, zines and prints!
