Join Utah-based illustrator and artist David Habben for a workshop that will help you prepare your unique children's story for publication. We'll learn the process for effective text placement and pacing, plus creating engaging compositions and book formatting. Students will gain a greater understanding of illustration through the process using their sketchbook to refine their artwork as well as their story. If you're looking to take your book one step closer to being published, this is the class for you! David "HABBENINK" Habben is an artist and illustrator based in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.
