Meet Christian Watson at Waterstones Manchester Deansgate

Meet Christian Watson at Waterstones Manchester Deansgate acontece a 25 de outubro de 2026, Waterstones, em Manchester.

Deansgate is delighted to welcome Christian Watson , the artist, animator and author behind the beloved Mr. Skelly . Christian joins us for a limited signing, celebrating Mr. Skelly's print debut, How Lucky Am I . Following the gentle, Instagram-conquering skeleton on his quest to find the meaning of life, How Lucky Am I is filled with beautiful hand-painted imagery and quiet wisdom that can be found in the appreciation of small, everyday wonders. Reserve a copy of HOW LUCKY AM I at the link below to guarentee entry. Please be prepared to queue, and if you need to, make sure you bring plenty of water and snacks in case you are queuing for a long time. We advise those with accessibility requirements to get in touch with us in advance by emailing events.manchester@waterstones.com , to let us know how we can support your visit. About the Author Animator and designer CHRISTIAN WATSON has long lived by the creed that a person ought to remain a student of many things. Actualising this, he founded the 1924us studio, a workshop devoted to thoughtful design and the preservation of simpler virtues, talents and fading skillsets. In 2023, while residing in Tasmania with his wife Elle-May and their two children, he sketched the first likeness of Mr Skelly, a small figure that, to his surprise, came to hold meaning for millions. Christian writes as he works: with plain earnestness, an eye for the unseen and a belief that even the quietest life is extraordinary. His work, as well as his studio, can be found at www.1924.us and @1924us
