I've held many workshops at schools and libraries, teaching children how to draw characters from my books using simple techniques that they can also apply to their own drawing. I have also appeared at events such as the Bradford and Oxford Literary Festivals, the latter as part of a discussion panel on humour in children's books.

"Matty's drawing workshop was a real hit - the children were totally engaged, and Matty encouraged and inspired artistic talents in everyone with his simple instructions and demonstrations of his terrific book characters. Great fun!"
