Let’s Make Some ART!

“Art isn’t a luxury. Art is a necessity“

Alvaro Batrington.

Quote from his interview on “A Brush With” The Art Newspaper

Learn To Draw “Drawing is more than a tool for rendering and capturing likenesses. It is a language, with its own syntax, grammar, and urgency. Learning to draw is about learning to see. In this way, it is a metaphor for all art activity. Whatever its form, drawing transforms perception and thought into image and teaches us how to think with our eyes.”
