Learn Drawing Fundamentals
This course combines both formal and informal approaches to drawing. Each week, Camila will guide the class through a unique drawing experience. Participants will work observationally from life in various contexts and settings, including studio-based work and street drawing. The course will emphasise drawing as both a skill and a tool for self-expression, helping participants discover and develop their personal style. Designed as a rolling program, participants will journey with Camila as their guide, exploring a range of drawing techniques and materials.
