This course is for children and adults alike who want to explore their artistic side through exercises and games designed to train a specific creative or artistic ability.
Anyone can be an artist. Puño, a Spanish illustrator and educator based in Colombia, works on this very simple but powerful basis, and assures that using just your hands, brain, and some basic tools, anyone can become a great artist, overcome creative blocks, and learn new family activities for a rainy day.

Description
Start by getting to know more about Puño, his professional journey, and some of his influences specifically relating to this course before taking a tour of the materials you need to complete the exercises.
Now it's time to get to work! To know how to draw you have to know how to think, so Puño shares several great ways to stimulate your creativity and see reality from different perspectives. The key to being a great artist is observation!
Next up, it's time to sharpen your pencils. Puño walks you through a series of drawing exercises for exploring different worlds, from gestural expression and body language to the construction of drawings with geometric figures. Remember that your drawings don't have to look like things themselves but rather how you see them.
Continue with some more exercises, this time to get stuck into the materials, acquire some manual skills, and understand the time that each project takes.
Use colored paper to experiment with the interaction between them before photographing real household objects to build abstract landscapes. Finally, learn to make printed drawings with several different colors using EVA foam and colored tempera.
