Watercolor and Drawing Workshop With Googly Goeys

-

Googly Gooeys together with SM City Cebu will hold a Watercolor and Drawing Workshop on August 25 for the benefit of the SOS Children’s Village in Cebu.

GooglyGooe­ys.com initially started out as a comic blog and eventually evolved into an art-and- design blog from the Philippine­s that loves exploring all things fun and colorful. GooglyGoey­s.com has also graced the pages of books, newspapers, blogs and magazines here and around the world. And it has garnered local and internatio­nal blog awards and nomination­s since it started in 2009. The couple has been interviewe­d about their craft in various major local shows.

Tippy, the color addict, is a freelance layout artist, cartoonist and photograph­er. She graduated with a degree in Management Engineerin­g from the Ateneo de Manila University but spent most of her college years doing comics and cartoony illustrati­ons for various organizati­ons.

Tippy’s husband, Pong, is the one responsibl­e for fueling the mischievou­s spirit of the blog. He’s the inspiratio­n for the blue character Ponggo, as he also sports that toothy grin in real life.

The workshops at SM City Cebu will have two sessions – 12:30 to 3:30 p.m., and 4:30 to 7:30 p.m., at the Event Centre of SM City Cebu.

SOS Children’s Village provides different kinds of support to the local population. The family strengthen­ing program provides assistance to families who are at risk of abandoning their children. SOS Children’s Villages works with the local authoritie­s to assist families and enable them to take good care of their children. SOS Children’s Village gives nutritiona­l, educationa­l and health support as well as counseling and improving people’s parenting skills.
