Illustration is idea-driven: it recognises ideas as a foundation and object of its practice. Illustration also upholds the tradition of drawing, a foundational cognitive activity that predates cities and agriculture.
In this 2-session workshop, we will explore the fundamentals of Illustration through practical tasks. This is both a short introduction to the field and an opportunity to reflect on drawing while pushing your expressive ambitions further.
