A travel sketchbook workshop on the French Riviera ?
Come and discover the art of the travel sketchbook in one of the most beautiful regions of France!
Register for a travel sketchbook workshop: travel and draw or reconcile holidays with your passion for drawing! Travel to the heart of your creativity!
What is it all about? An intense practice of about 6 hours of drawing per day to learn, improve, inspire and stimulate each other, letting ourselves be carried away by the enthusiasm of the group!
The program will include: sketching, drawing, layout, training on aerial or architectural perspective and nuance! All this in gray pencil, ink, colored pencil, watercolor or mixed media!
The travel workshop combines:
- Learning to sketch on the spot or freehand sketching (which is very different from painting or drawing inside a workshop!),
- Learning to use different mediums and techniques,
- Illustrating in a ‘sensitive’ way with one’s own observations and emotions,
- Using the notions of aerial or architectural perspectives to give more realism to sketches,
- Playing with shadows and light in a conventional or more pictorial way,
- Transcribing an atmosphere in black and white or color,
And sometimes, according to inspiration having fun by adding writing!
