the-headIn this workshop you will be experimenting with various media of your choice to let your inner child, the wild, raw and primitive energy come out from depth of your fundamental human instinct that has been carried at all time throughout ages. This energy that is locked inside us and doesn’t make its way out, is the universal energy that existed in all ancient art forms.

Let’s try to explore and bring it on paper or canvas. You will have the opportunity to unleash and express your inner wild visions the way you wish. I will have pictures and examples for you to use as guides to start this journey.
