Ever wondered how your favourite story characters come to life?
Brenton will show you how it’s done—starting with basic shapes and warm-up drawings, then transforming them into unique heroes with feelings, quirks and backstories. You’ll even see how a single scribble can spark an entire story!
Then it’s your turn!
