It's called “remember drawing” because we all used to know how to draw when we were children, before deciding to become adults. Our workshop centers on discovering some of the artist inside oneself. And you know that art can help you to get closer to your feelings, can help you express yourself and impress the others. Because drawing is more than a basic skill. It's a language, a communication tool and a road to unexplored territories.

We invite you to play with images, open the door to visual creativity and show you some basics features of image creation. Learn to draw so that you can put on paper, ideas that don't fit in words. Learn drawing for visualizing your dreams and visions.
