    Join us for an illustrated exploration of visual storytelling methods used in graphic novels and comic books, from page layout to multiple media and storytelling techniques. Included will be many examples from Scott Hanna’s published work and the work of other artists in the field.  Scott Hanna is one of the most published inkers in the industry today. His drawing/inking work has appeared in over 100 books to date. He currently works for both Marvel & DC Comics. Topics in Scott's work cover a vast range of Superhero themes including many of the Hollywood movie adaptations, including "IronMan" (the first movie), "The Hulk," "Daredevil," "Batman Forever," "Spiderman 3," and "X-Men 3."  His comic and graphic novel pages have been exhibited at the Smithsonian Institution and at MOCCA, the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art in New York City.  This program is presented in support of the exhibition, "LitGraphic: The World of the Graphic Novel." Organized by the Norman Rockwell Museum, this touring exhibit features over 200 original art works, including paintings, drawings, storyboards, studies, books, photographs, and a documentary film offering insights into the lives of the artists and the nature of their work.
