Experimental drawing workshops

This exciting workshop series is inspired by performance art, calligraphy, mindfulness exercises and a very personal interest in primal sensory experiences related to mark-making. It is very open-ended and sometimes elicit profound reactions.

• Mark-making activities involving concentration and mindfulness
• Synaesthesic experiments using drawing in close relationship with sounds, touching, tasting…
• Exercises to free the mind and the body from preconceived notions about drawing.

Where I conducted this workshop:

• Ideas Block LT

Art workshops for children

Workshops for children are generally a combination of practice from higher art education (fundamentals like colors, observation, shape design) and self-directed experiments inspired by the Reggio / Montessori education system as well as playful approaches to art, following Hervé Tullet’s great workshop series.

Where I conducted this workshop:

• Taškius primary school
• Kindermusik Antakalnis
• Lycée International Français de Vilnius

Live drawing

Sometimes an organisation or a company want to have an unforgettable, one of a kind memory of a specific event. I can be there and draw the crowd in a discreet manner during the event.
