| Hi, Kev F Sutherland here, the writer and artist for The Beano, Marvel and many other comics. You may have heard of my far-famed Comic Art Masterclass? I hope so, because I'd like to bring it to to a school, college or art centre near you.
I teach pupils all there is to know about making comic strips and manga. I can work with two groups in a school day, up to 30 in each group, any age from 7 (year 3/ Primary 4 Scotland) upwards. By the end of each session the group has produced a comic containing a strip by every single one of them, a copy of which they take home, plus I've drawn a caricature of every one of them (I can even draw all the staff if there's time). You can see examples of my workshops, and videos of me in action below. Ring or email for details. 01275 872111 / 07931 810858 kevf.sutherland@virgin.net |

Comic writer and artist Kev F Sutherland's work has appeared everywhere from The Beano to 2000AD, from Star Trek to Viz, from Spider-Man to The Funday Times (and most points inbetween). See KEV'S COMIC STRIPS and caricatures Since 2003 Kev has been offering COMIC ART MASTERCLASSES to school and colleges, which are proving ridiculously popular. Kev F is a respected comics expert, appearing regularly on TV and radio (recently on BBC 4's Battle Of The Books, Channel 5's Spider-Man Story, Channel 4's RI:SE, HTV's Life Class figure drawing series), and in his own ITV1 comedy show The Sitcom Trials. Kev F's Comic Art Masterclasses have been run successfully with pupils and students from Primary (yr 3 / 8 yr old recommended youngest) to Sixth Form and to Art Foundation Year students. The classes aim to educate and enthuse pupils in comic and cartoon art, teaching them all techniques and tricks of the trade, presented at a level suitable for each age of pupil. By the end of every session we aim to have created a brand new School Comic and to have drawn an individual caricature of every pupil. |

 Typical press coverage  |
 Kev's classroom style is entertaining as well as educational, drawing on his skills as a stand up comedian. One day of comic art masterclasses (ideally 2 sessions per day, classes no bigger than 30) can be arranged for little more than the price of a supply teacher (just 225 pounds plus travel). The only materials required are a flipchart and marker pens, access to a photocopier, and drawing paper and materials for the pupils. See below for Recommendations.
