Drawing course for young people

Are you between 13 and 17 years old and interested in drawing? Then this course is for you!

The drawing course is held by visual artist Cecilia Jiménez Ojeda who lives and works in Oslo.

Cecilia will first present her own artistic work, and will then introduce the course participants to the techniques she uses. All course participants have access to their own tablet to take pictures of selected smaller objects. These photographs will be the starting point for making your own drawings with a pencil.

The purpose of the course is to help participants develop their own drawing skills and inspire them to continue working on finding their individual expressions. Each participant borrows course equipment such as various pencils, ruler, rubber band and drawing sheets.

Course date: Saturday 24 October 2020
