About

Come and create a graphic frieze in the form of a leporello, from a simple sketch to a finished drawing.

How does an artist tackle a theme? How do they form, deform, and metamorphose the subject that obsesses them?

Balzac was a perfectionist; he made up to 19 corrections to a single text.

Rodin took seven years and produced over 120 versions to complete his sculpture of the author. But is it ever really finished?

In this workshop, you will follow set rules—such as rhythms and constraints—all within the excitement of the artistic process.
