New Workshop Format: Live Sketching

Hello Guys! 🙂 I’ve been receiving requests for a follow-up workshop to the Watercolor Doodles workshop.

Of Generosity, Preparedness & Fulfillment at Work

Bright hues have been a constant fuel in my life and holding workshops for the past years have made me realize that more than the brush strokes and the happy colors *Mostly Teal at the moment*.   Fulfillment also comes from getting to meet workshop participants for the first time and getting to know their stories.

We were contacted by the Advertising Students of Central Philippine University to hold a workshop coupled with an outreach and I didn’t really know what I was in for.
