Drawing for Adults: Domingo and Drawings with Carla Gamalinda

The 2022 Summer Virtual Workshops is a workshop series for kids, teens, and adults to learn and rediscover Filipino culture and identity through art. It features works by Juan Luna, Damian Domingo, Jose Honorato Lozano, and Fernando Amorsolo from the Ayala Museum’s current exhibition Intertwined: Transpacific, Transcultural Philippines.

This workshop will have three (3) three-hour sessions on 3 consecutive Saturdays which aim for adults to discover and learn the basic art principles through drawing and will focus on composition, colors and value. Discover what makes Damian Domingo’s export painting and drawings exceptional to the local and international market. Study basic techniques of drawing and learn to render them with colored pencils. This is an introductory drawing class for those who are eager to learn drawing and for those who need a refresher course.

The adults’ workshop is for ages 18 years old and above. Read more details below the poster.
