What will you discover when you look a little closer? This workshop is open to teens and families, of all skills levels – no artistic experience required.
An aspiring educator and future famous artist, Payton prides herself on her passion and love for art. Her love doesn’t just stop at art, however, but extends to literature and media, too! With major inspiration from J.R.R. Tolkien, Lewis Carroll, and Kimiko Y. Craft, she hopes to invoke joy in the lives of others through magic, fantasy, and charming stories.
Zan is an aspiring interior designer, comic artist and poet who is currently in their senior year of high school. Zan is currently working on a fantasy comic of their own named Rise of Dystopia which is their own long-term project. But despite this they are striving to improve their artistic skills as they enter their post-secondary.
Ethan has grown up in love with world-building and its many forms. With inspirations such as Dungeons and Dragons, Dune, Studio Ghibli, and Cyberpunk, Ethan hopes to create worlds that inspire others and influence our own.
