Don’t be afraid of drawing what is not reality !

In this watercolour and drawing workshop, Delphine will share with you her favourite way of painting with energy and creativity.

She will explain step by step how to draw as quickly as possible without heavy equipment, looking for a global vision that will enable you to achieve a personal interpretation.

Usually, we begin a sketch by drawing the outlines, and we finish by adding colors. Sometimes it’s good for creativity and spontaneity to change habits. Delphine will propose to begin by splashing watercolor, in accordance with your mood, without drawing any figurative lines beforehand. Just as a “sensitive possibility”, as if in a dream, with a poetic approach. While the watercolor is still wet you will sketch outlines with water-soluble pencils which can produce expressive colored lines and unexpected effects.

The aim is not to produce realistic artwork but to capture the emotion and the essence of the scene with a global vision.

The most important point is how to feel the mood, drawing without confusing speed with haste, and using a creative approach.
