10:00 – 16:30
FROM 15 TO 18 APRIL
WITH PASCALE BREYSSE
(4-day workshop for ages 11 +)
Create your illustration combining drawing and digital design
If illustrating means translating an idea, a feeling or an emotion, it also means giving free rein to your imagination, your poetry and your inner world. It is like diving into the vastness of the ocean.
This makes it possible to enrich the idea, to show what is not said in the text, and thus to create a mutually enhancing relationship between text and images. This workshop is an invitation to take this journey, allowing unforeseen images to spring forth. Digital technology is a wonderful tool in this respect.
Your illustration will be developed out of drawings made in the traditional way, in pencil or pencil, and then scanned. The image thus created will surprise us in its treatment, its statement and its shape in resonance with your idea or inner feeling….
