This relaxed, creative workshop introduces students to sketching as a fun way to express ideas. The focus is on creativity, observation, and confidence — not perfection. No prior experience is needed.
In this workshop, you will practice basic sketching techniques, build confidence in your drawing skills, and learn how to express your ideas clearly through visual storytelling.
