Learn to draw detailed hatching and create truly powerful images

Manual drawing is a fascinating process of great wealth, and exploring its limits, but above all, its wide possibilities through the use of mixed techniques, is what graphic artist Jorge Lewis wants to achieve with a clear objective: to create powerful images based on black and white Jorge creates and expresses stories with his drawings, for 18 years. His work is exhibited inside and outside Colombia, his country. In addition, he publishes his own books and produces serial editions of fine art and other products, that personal style.

In this course, Jorge will teach you to realize your full potential through manual drawing and some mixed techniques. You will carry out sketching processes starting from black and white, and you will learn to make patterns and textures using different materials such as stylographs and markers for the realization of powerful images digitally finished.
