Realistic Into Fantasy

Welcome to Realistic Into Fantasy!

Come join us at Pinecone Studio for a creative event that teaches us to see the everyday in a new and fantastical way!

This program starts with a demonstration by Katherine. We will then draw/illustrate a botanical or animal specimen of our choice (Weather permitting, we will be moving outside for observation and outdoor sketching). The second half of the program will focus on helping us modify our drawings to fit a more fantastical setting.

Whether you're a fan of mythical creatures, epic adventures, or enchanted worlds, this event is perfect for anyone willing to stretch their creative minds!

Guided by Katherine Souza:

Katherine Souza is a visual storyteller and writer currently living in Maine. After being raised on a steady diet of books, games, and films, she makes narrative art that crosses between literary, interactive, and visual media.

She earned her BFA in Illustration and Game Arts at the Maryland Institute College of Art, with a small interlude to study Visual Communication at the Alberta University of the Arts. Her passion and admiration for narrative art comes through the themes of ontology, paleontology, and semiotics.

She has put passion into practice through game design, writing, and illustration. She hopes to bring her worlds to life for others to live in and enjoy.
