Robin’s Presentation Details
Robin
Muller gives an informative, yet humorous, look at the writing/
illustrating process. Using many original illustrations, he guides
students through the ins and outs of writing and illustrating.
Robin’s
presentations are an energetic and upbeat look at the creative process.
From rough drafts and rough sketches, Robin emphasizes the number of
times a story, or an illustration, has to be reworked before it is
ready to be published. He finishes off his presentation with an
illustration, where he and the students make a picture together.
Robin will
do two or three presentations in a day.
