It’s that time of year again: next week I’ll be doing some art activity days at Oswestry Library, this year as part of the Oswestry Makes Festival. This year I’ve somehow got myself roped into three different events: I’m giving a workshop on applied comics at one of the 6th-form colleges on Oct. 1st, plus I’m doing a “Steampunk Heroes” drawing and colouring session in the morning and a live painting of a specially-commissioned piece of steampunk artwork in the afternoon at Oswestry Library on Oct. 3rd. The steampunk comes courtesy of the theme of the final day of the Oswestry Makes festival at the library, which is a mini comic-con, complete with costume competition and a chance to meet author Kate O’Hearn.
So, the other thing I’ve been roped into doing is coming along to the library’s comic-con in costume…
What is a well-dressed steampunk artist wearing this season?
