DRAWING WORKSHOP ONLINE

 MARCELO GUIMARÃES LIMA

The DRAWING WORKSHOP is designed to develop the fundamental skills and concepts for the practice of drawing both as a discipline of its own, and as an essential foundation for the Visual Arts including Painting, Graphic Design, Illustration, Sculpture, Design, Architecture, Digital Arts, Fashion Design, Decorative Arts and other related areas. 

In all these fields, drawing is an essential skill that involves and develops a capacity for observation and invention that extracts from the organized and creative experience of vision and gesture the elements for the construction of representative forms, imaginary forms, conceptual and prospective forms. 

Drawing is a basic instrument in the Visual Arts and it is also a specific artistic form. In this way, aesthetic and historical questions of the arts of drawing are also introduced in the DRAWING WORKSHOP.

We provide individual and group instruction via video and teaching platforms.

Languages of instruction: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese
