This course offers original, contemporary and constantly renewed workshops around the art of drawing and illustration. Students develop their sensitivity as well as their ability to create and express themselves in colour, lines and materials. The workshop programme is based on the culture of art, its history and current events. They allow students to acquire the culture, the gestures and the essential tools to be able to express themselves and create.

Program

Learn and develop your artistic expression using different tools: pencils, brushes, watercolour, felt-tip pens, pastels, gouache, neocolours, pens, graphite, charcoal, etc. So many techniques to discover and to deepen! Students develop their skills through creations, drawings and illustrations on themes suggested by the teacher. Accompanied by the teacher, they will be able to develop, grow or perfect their artistic practice.

For Apolline, the possibility of accompanying the children in the realisation of a concrete project is essential. The teacher therefore proposes, in line with the courses given in visual arts, the possibility of carrying out an exhibition or micro-publishing project. Through a playful, social and enriching experience, the children will understand the context of a real project and its implementation.
