Suitable for all skill levels, you'll craft both the creature and its lore in this fun, hands-on art workshop. No prior drawing experience needed, just bring your imagination. Think Tim Burton meets Fourth Wing; perfect for lovers of the creepy-cute, gothic whimsy and dragon fantasy.
All premium supplies are provided; artist grade pastel pencils and pastel-mat paper so you can focus on crafting your beautifully dark masterpiece in a cozy setting. With only 30 seats available, this exclusive creative immersion will sell fast. Book early to secure your place in the Hatchery.
Presented by: Nicola Milan
Nicola Milan is the creator of Thelonious Creature, a whimsical art brand inspired by Victorian gothic aesthetics, creepy-cute characters and slightly macabre fantasy creatures. Working with pastel pencil as her preferred medium, Nicola conjures everything from snobbish Victorian aristocrats in top hats to fantastical beasts, all infused with her signature gothic charm.
Nicola’s previous sold-out Fringe World event, 'Burton & Bubbles: Create Your Own Gothic Masterpiece', saw a full room of Tim Burton fans delight in crafting their own weird and whimsical characters - from headless serpent ladies to eccentric aristocrats. Guests left with unique artworks and the joy of having created something deliciously strange together.
This year, create your own gothic dragon in The Dark Hatchery.
