You can't be Leonardo da Vinci. Drawing Experience + Dinner. Class 1

The classes have been prepared connected, with different exercises which will challenge our minds and increase our creativity.

Some of you asked me for drawing classes regularly.
You decide which ones you want to come.
See the options below.

Why this title?

Because one day my father told me:
-“You can't be Leonardo da Vinci”.

He had a lot of potential, but he was overly critical and shy causing him fear and judgment. A bad combination to explore your creativity.

I don't let anyone define my limits.
Do you?

So I asked da Vinci for some inspiration and he answered fast.
He is full of ideas and we want to share them with you.

His drawings were not just studies of anatomy or invention, but meditations on how deeply we can see.
Leonardo believed that drawing was a way to understand the world, to train both the eye and the mind.
By slowing down and observing like he did, we rediscover the joy of translating what we see into lines, shadows, and forms.
