From 12 to 19 November 2023

From 19 to 26 Novembre 2023

ESSAOUIRA, the ancient city of Mogador, is one of the most beautiful towns on the Atlantic coast of Morocco. Its history linked to Rome and Portugal, as well as its Islamic essence, makes this place a point of cultural miscegenation whose result invites mixing, tolerance and creativity.

This Travel Sketching workshop in Essaouira is open to people wishing to learn or improve their drawing skills in Urban Sketching.

During this workshop you will learn to develop your sense of observation to depict a bit of everything that surrounds you in your sketchbook:
Bbuildings and emblematic elements of Essaouira and town and places near to Essaouira, characters, market scenes, animals, arquitectural details…

We will remind in a playful way some fondamentals of drawing, such as perspective and composition, and we will learn to forget them from time to time to play with the spontaneity of our lines and color.
We will also explore complementary techniques to drawing such as collage, typography and watercolor.

Observation, experimentation and letting go will be emphasized.

This course will help you acquire the confidence and ease which are necessary to progress.
