'Where the cows go bong!' Illustrating Nonsense Poetry with Liv Bargman

Join local illustrator Liv Bargman in this creative workshop for Bishop’s Castle Arts Festival to explore the whimsical world of nonsense poetry through imaginative illustration and playful visual storytelling.

Drawing inspiration from iconic poets such as Edward Lear, Spike Milligan, Ogden Nash, and Hilaire Belloc, the session will blend poetry, drawing, and character design. Liv will share her signature specialism in character creation in a fun, accessible format, suitable for adults.

Participants will create fantastical characters using a playful prompt system inspired by the concept of the transmundane—things that exist beyond the physical or visible world. Then, we’ll explore visual interpretation of nonsense poetry through hand drawn typography and illustration
