Eina is taking part in a new edition of Barcelona Dibuixa, a festival organised by the Barcelona Institute of Culture (ICUB), with Draw Your Favourite Pet, a workshop led by illustrator Linda Mantovani, taking place at Bosc on Sunday 18 October, from 10 am to 2 pm.
A graduate of the Postgraduate Diploma in Creative Illustration and Visual Communication Techniques, Linda Mantovani proposes an activity open to children, families and people of all ages, inviting participants to experiment with drawing through play, observation and imagination.
How would you draw your pet? And what if you could invent a new one? Using a range of materials and simple techniques, each participant will be able to create their own creature and discover different ways of depicting animals.
The workshop focuses on the creative process: observing, imagining, experimenting and transforming. A shared experience designed to encourage curiosity, imagination and personal expression through drawing.
