Pia's workshops were always well planned, structured and pitched to specific client groups. Her creativity, coupled with her tone and encouragement always removed barriers participants felt about their own abilities. Pia can teach technique and is very skilled in supporting participants to observe carefully and critically, to develop personal responses and explore and experiment with confidence. She is exceptionally well organised and an excellent planner and communicator.Lucy Wheeler Education Project Manager, Bow Arts I’m committed to sharing the benefits of drawing with young people, placing emphasis on careful observation to build specific skills and promoting wellbeing by engaging carefully with the world around us. &nbsp;Drawing supports motor skills and handwriting, which is, of course, a form of drawing. My carefully planned workshops engage with specific themes and topics and help integrate arts into the school curriculum in primary, secondary and special needs settings. As well as developing practical skills my sessions include collaboration and conversation, encouraging students to share thoughtful responses to their own work and that of others. Resourceful use of materials ensures activities are accessible and protects both the environment and school budget. https://paperprojects.org/museums-culture-community Thu, 16 Apr 2020 11:40:06 +0000 Arts Education https://paperprojects.org/museums-culture-community museums, culture &amp; community&nbsp; <img width="2062" height="1536" width_o="2062" height_o="1536" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/41a598266e05a4bf8fe240da67280bde72ff84c8873cddf0b847b1f7df36eadb/1-a-studio-fish2.jpg" data-mid="67334820" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/41a598266e05a4bf8fe240da67280bde72ff84c8873cddf0b847b1f7df36eadb/1-a-studio-fish2.jpg" /> <img width="1536" height="2560" width_o="1536" height_o="2560" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cd7764fcb1d9ef9dd6c2d508fc0acdda66ad9398968b62c916a582a08bb52d5e/2-museum2.jpg" data-mid="67334821" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cd7764fcb1d9ef9dd6c2d508fc0acdda66ad9398968b62c916a582a08bb52d5e/2-museum2.jpg" /> <img width="2560" height="1536" width_o="2560" height_o="1536" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/be5eb872d34d4e9307faa343c19c1c1a55798697c4d352372effb472fde8e157/3-stamp1.jpg" data-mid="67334822" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/be5eb872d34d4e9307faa343c19c1c1a55798697c4d352372effb472fde8e157/3-stamp1.jpg" /> <img width="2388" height="2337" width_o="2388" height_o="2337" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/694cb7fe4e4152b19a80d38231368b0fafd695ed06efc24c377915229adcf6da/ya2-2.jpg" data-mid="67607775" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/694cb7fe4e4152b19a80d38231368b0fafd695ed06efc24c377915229adcf6da/ya2-2.jpg" /> <img width="1144" height="687" width_o="1144" height_o="687" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/475b757083c3eaf62477b84ae5580c3830f5c988bd07d30548a2e1093f4c4c32/4-cpdr.jpg" data-mid="67334823" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/475b757083c3eaf62477b84ae5580c3830f5c988bd07d30548a2e1093f4c4c32/4-cpdr.jpg" /> <img width="1521" height="2384" width_o="1521" height_o="2384" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/52cd25c615a79bc1eb9b400f2d1864faef33763391942a89355ea1ede0eb907f/5-museum1.jpg" data-mid="67334824" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/52cd25c615a79bc1eb9b400f2d1864faef33763391942a89355ea1ede0eb907f/5-museum1.jpg" /> <img width="2560" height="1536" width_o="2560" height_o="1536" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/eaf0aaa8a89efbdb87957c1e227872b6b4cbf9f433bf32bb624698646c783937/6-farm.jpg" data-mid="67334825" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/eaf0aaa8a89efbdb87957c1e227872b6b4cbf9f433bf32bb624698646c783937/6-farm.jpg" /> <img width="1536" height="2150" width_o="1536" height_o="2150" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7384f3ddc7cbca9561da67345c12cfbcfcde75ce70e3241e5e0d100adbf40a30/7-museum3.jpg" data-mid="67334826" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7384f3ddc7cbca9561da67345c12cfbcfcde75ce70e3241e5e0d100adbf40a30/7-museum3.jpg" /> <img width="1536" height="2560" width_o="1536" height_o="2560" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b9730ed66a187cee8f4fac4b078a27746c3a7dab83d119390ad74ab8821db9fc/8studio-stick.jpg" data-mid="67334836" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b9730ed66a187cee8f4fac4b078a27746c3a7dab83d119390ad74ab8821db9fc/8studio-stick.jpg" /> <img width="2048" height="1344" width_o="2048" height_o="1344" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c376859347958781447b7ecef365a92336cfc6acf68685b0092a20c38ceaa698/MUSEUMS---COMMUNITY.jpg" data-mid="67334848" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c376859347958781447b7ecef365a92336cfc6acf68685b0092a20c38ceaa698/MUSEUMS---COMMUNITY.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fd376a3923829bd012e4e86bbbd7fcf07af2c190e9333c5c29411d962174075d/mus-2.jpg" data-mid="67607709" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fd376a3923829bd012e4e86bbbd7fcf07af2c190e9333c5c29411d962174075d/mus-2.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7308acd4ad4d72c25bd07a22ac8fdf0d07f481d5d30ad6915c9ecf7b2c45718c/museum.jpg" data-mid="67607711" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7308acd4ad4d72c25bd07a22ac8fdf0d07f481d5d30ad6915c9ecf7b2c45718c/museum.jpg" /> Pia was such an excellent and inspiring tutor when she worked with us leading an intergenerational arts and crafts group that was attended by a range of kids, families and older people. Her activities were always inventive and exciting yet achievable. Although it was a drop-in group, many people returned week after week. Pia's lovely energy manages to be both fun and calming which is ideal for some of the children we work with - I couldn't recommend her enough as a teacher and artist. Jemma Bicknell Head of Community Programmes, Time &amp; Talents Inclusive sessions encourage visitors to engage with the collection and reflect ethos of the organisation. My workshops make participants feel welcome, build their confidence and inspire them to make personal connections to develop a sense of ownership of the collection. &nbsp;Workshops may be open or more formal, targeted at specific groups.

The students have benefitted from her wealth of knowledge and experience that she shares through well-informed presentations, structured workshops and demonstrations. ‘Bedroom printmaking’ has always been most popular with the students, as she’s shown them how to engage with print without print studio equipment, using easy to access materials and adjusted techniques. She is a passionate, patient and inspiring tutor.Henrietta Beadle Senior Lecturer and Pathway Leader, Kingston University Drawing is fundamental to creative careers, and I work with students ambitious to progress in a diverse range of professional fields. My lectures, workshops and tutorials are designed to inspire and sustain the future practice of young artists studying on Kingston University’s Art Foundation course and The Royal Drawing School Young Associates Programme. Drawing, critical and investigative techniques are developed through my applied and research sessions. The young artists learn practical skills and make personal connections to artists, media and cultural or social ideas. Projects may progress into the form of printmaking, painting, photography, sculpture, film or textile arts. Students build impressive portfolios, allowing them to advance towards their chosen career. A co-operative and professional studio atmosphere is nurtured, establishing the importance of collaboration, sharing ideas generously and appreciating constructive criticism. https://paperprojects.org/artist-support Thu, 16 Apr 2020 11:40:05 +0000 Arts Education https://paperprojects.org/artist-support artist support <img width="3264" height="2448" width_o="3264" height_o="2448" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fb4b2bdd5b3cfc4c99a89af4eb25dcc5bff853ba2f4d85bfe32a658c326bc152/as14.jpg" data-mid="67603009" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fb4b2bdd5b3cfc4c99a89af4eb25dcc5bff853ba2f4d85bfe32a658c326bc152/as14.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="2840" width_o="2448" height_o="2840" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/86f4e12a056e8acd883e4a3be5b41634ba5bcf972ffb9c1de5f273fb6de0cc7e/as-TITLE.jpg" data-mid="67602999" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/86f4e12a056e8acd883e4a3be5b41634ba5bcf972ffb9c1de5f273fb6de0cc7e/as-TITLE.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="2448" width_o="2448" height_o="2448" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cdbf8a905f5fe20751555bb310c5b81aea42a00c3f6490afa1122911ca714b07/as10-2.jpg" data-mid="67603006" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cdbf8a905f5fe20751555bb310c5b81aea42a00c3f6490afa1122911ca714b07/as10-2.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/47216cc9ba6fa682b123a6af2bd7be2d17fa1795937694f09e7471cbd69a579d/as12-2.jpg" data-mid="67603008" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/47216cc9ba6fa682b123a6af2bd7be2d17fa1795937694f09e7471cbd69a579d/as12-2.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b571e04f70f0fdad4e2d04463167baae29fb7bcca61f4dea8e6e211edfe67d16/as11.jpg" data-mid="67604766" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b571e04f70f0fdad4e2d04463167baae29fb7bcca61f4dea8e6e211edfe67d16/as11.jpg" /> <img width="3264" height="2448" width_o="3264" height_o="2448" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/341442c62b9308cceb55c8a4e51a2e0eee238ef1d6e7f9982921bf9bf5d8f69c/as7-2.jpg" data-mid="67604765" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/341442c62b9308cceb55c8a4e51a2e0eee238ef1d6e7f9982921bf9bf5d8f69c/as7-2.jpg" /> <img width="4926" height="2498" width_o="4926" height_o="2498" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/96fefbe08a8f0e0e4c91bcd3144aa3ab2dded26836535e7c65cedbb96cbbb87a/as6.jpg" data-mid="67603002" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/96fefbe08a8f0e0e4c91bcd3144aa3ab2dded26836535e7c65cedbb96cbbb87a/as6.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="2928" width_o="2448" height_o="2928" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cdee1ca166611183710b75215d53deee7cf370abdace5ba8f8be9c61c3b85884/as8-2.jpg" data-mid="67603004" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cdee1ca166611183710b75215d53deee7cf370abdace5ba8f8be9c61c3b85884/as8-2.jpg" /> <img width="3264" height="2448" width_o="3264" height_o="2448" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/433c47b2c5c921501f3516068f8d27df845f216f876cb464a28dc88f51b87397/as9-2.jpg" data-mid="67603005" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/433c47b2c5c921501f3516068f8d27df845f216f876cb464a28dc88f51b87397/as9-2.jpg" /> Pia’s work with ActionSpace’s artists with complex learning disabilities is outstanding. She encourages them to explore their creativity, develop their skills, strive for excellence and achieve their potential. Her success in doing this is demonstrated by the joy the artists display when working with her, the standard of the artwork they produce and the positive feedback they received from visitors to our exhibitions. Sheryll Catto Co-Director, ActionSpace It’s a privilege to be a part of ActionSpace’s team supporting artists with learning disabilities. I work closely with individuals to understand their interests and assist them to develop an ambitious, independent studio practice. I lead ActionSpace’s programme for adults with profound and multiple disabilities, based at The Greenwood Centre in Camden. Activities and materials are adapted for individual participants, and everyone is encouraged to make independent choices as we experiment with sound, touch, light and movement. I’m proud to share our practice and principles with NHS and social care trainees visiting our sessions. Carefully curated exhibitions, events and open activity sessions engage with a wider audience and showcase ActionSpace’s projects and the exceptional work of the artists. &nbsp;&nbsp; Find out more about ActionSpace here&nbsp; artists work pictured: Linda Bell, Philippa Marshall,&nbsp; Abu Hasnat, Patrick Moses, Sara Anthony. https://paperprojects.org/cpd Thu, 16 Apr 2020 11:40:06 +0000 Arts Education https://paperprojects.org/cpd continued professional development &amp;&nbsp;teacher training <img width="2323" height="1536" width_o="2323" height_o="1536" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/aebc5ee59d5c94006ea2939072cd12a12320bd36361fb1dfd001212b88400920/1.jpg" data-mid="67334254" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/aebc5ee59d5c94006ea2939072cd12a12320bd36361fb1dfd001212b88400920/1.jpg" /> <img width="2560" height="1536" width_o="2560" height_o="1536" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fcb7a5c1d9cc8a1f52486be41c633feb28743e5cef5ff4d622c17f3615962118/1adrawing-marks.jpg" data-mid="67334255" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fcb7a5c1d9cc8a1f52486be41c633feb28743e5cef5ff4d622c17f3615962118/1adrawing-marks.jpg" /> <img width="1536" height="2120" width_o="1536" height_o="2120" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c35784b096f2df30c8029d8d56dcbb572ceb7d82f86525b7ea5929c21a1c3597/2.jpg" data-mid="67334256" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c35784b096f2df30c8029d8d56dcbb572ceb7d82f86525b7ea5929c21a1c3597/2.jpg" /> <img width="2408" height="2408" width_o="2408" height_o="2408" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/32753cbc0d053f67fbefab2684ac29ccc6d8a21d6210955405e92e31791d48f0/3-drawing-heads.jpg" data-mid="67334257" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/32753cbc0d053f67fbefab2684ac29ccc6d8a21d6210955405e92e31791d48f0/3-drawing-heads.jpg" /> <img width="687" height="1144" width_o="687" height_o="1144" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/204b0da3f728e16e1c65b0c58ccab43aea99a4b49a8cf206eb89a5c4e36f152d/4.jpg" data-mid="67334258" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/687/i/204b0da3f728e16e1c65b0c58ccab43aea99a4b49a8cf206eb89a5c4e36f152d/4.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4a075dcc20280638cdf735b2f20bd6aa9720d73d34559e878c7372c0746c3e8d/CPD.jpg" data-mid="67334259" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4a075dcc20280638cdf735b2f20bd6aa9720d73d34559e878c7372c0746c3e8d/CPD.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/13c524537aa7d3f70c386343c8dc683f845e7a7bf20bc764f7e5c3f217f5b72e/CPD.jpg" data-mid="67607997" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/13c524537aa7d3f70c386343c8dc683f845e7a7bf20bc764f7e5c3f217f5b72e/CPD.jpg" /> Relaxed CPD sessions introduce new skills in a fun and accessible way, with techniques adapted to particular themes and topics. My work connects drawing with other subjects and promotes it as a tremendously valuable educational and wellbeing skill. Each session is designed to support the specific aims and values of a school, to help integrate drawing into their curriculum. Building confidence liberates teaching staff from anxieties about being ‘bad’ at drawing, and offers an opportunity to take a more personal, playful approach. Alongside sharing practical skills, I introduce relevant and relatable artists for reference and provide a framework for engaging thoughtfully with their life and work. https://paperprojects.org/special-educational-needs Sun, 19 Apr 2020 19:55:08 +0000 Arts Education https://paperprojects.org/special-educational-needs special educational needs <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/884771d6c98e224a9ad1924b35416a122954c7bada3c2e38ebf5fe0e9bfe3999/SEN-2.jpg" data-mid="67606690" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/884771d6c98e224a9ad1924b35416a122954c7bada3c2e38ebf5fe0e9bfe3999/SEN-2.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="2457" width_o="2448" height_o="2457" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/437b8249ec8ba444717a3f39122dc18daba2185df5dd577c0bc9a170bd6fb351/sen3-2.jpg" data-mid="67606691" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/437b8249ec8ba444717a3f39122dc18daba2185df5dd577c0bc9a170bd6fb351/sen3-2.jpg" /> <img width="3264" height="2448" width_o="3264" height_o="2448" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/930288e9d94c865563640ff6f166c6d2a56b1f9349e16851f9c1b2a06a851786/sen4-3.jpg" data-mid="67606693" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/930288e9d94c865563640ff6f166c6d2a56b1f9349e16851f9c1b2a06a851786/sen4-3.jpg" /> <img width="1968" height="1968" width_o="1968" height_o="1968" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/98e94f97b3a15fdb5fb57acdd5468e3f09a824edeb255e3a93cc08c044a3f627/sen5-2.jpg" data-mid="67606694" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/98e94f97b3a15fdb5fb57acdd5468e3f09a824edeb255e3a93cc08c044a3f627/sen5-2.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="2448" width_o="2448" height_o="2448" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5993ebfd4519033b6dedec833d93022d11b6c8597ed900dd332d45cf8c183107/sen7-2.jpg" data-mid="67606696" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5993ebfd4519033b6dedec833d93022d11b6c8597ed900dd332d45cf8c183107/sen7-2.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ad0c6d7643de0ef51e00eae4e320a1e505eca8927c50e0de2e3c030ab0906ab0/sen9-2.jpg" data-mid="67606698" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ad0c6d7643de0ef51e00eae4e320a1e505eca8927c50e0de2e3c030ab0906ab0/sen9-2.jpg" /> <img width="5184" height="3888" width_o="5184" height_o="3888" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6d4898cc3be15ba2ae368241d12bc446cf9c363a697c194688f1a6e6ba045ce5/sena.jpg" data-mid="67606702" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6d4898cc3be15ba2ae368241d12bc446cf9c363a697c194688f1a6e6ba045ce5/sena.jpg" /> <img width="2448" height="3264" width_o="2448" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ee891dbc577724ac7c0f317833fd786b49ebf68b5b1d38b11c7c51db51e0ce33/sen6-2.jpg" data-mid="67607083" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ee891dbc577724ac7c0f317833fd786b49ebf68b5b1d38b11c7c51db51e0ce33/sen6-2.jpg" /> Pia is able to engage the most sensory learners and help them to participate in the most well-resourced, creative and differentiated art activities. &nbsp;She was able to produce astounding creativity with them and they responded really surprisingly to these activities which included colour, audio and tactile activities including dyeing, sound techniques, charcoal work, and paper making. Sarah Joshi Class Teacher, Phoenix School London Through a long term partnership with teachers at a specialist state school for Autistic students, I have been delivering playful activities which explore the sensory possibilities of materials. Sessions are open-ended and responsive, allowing individuals to direct their own outcomes. Students often find it particularly exciting and rewarding to make their own art materials from scratch. Equipment and spaces are used imaginatively and safely, and I prepare and adapt for unpredictable behaviour. Building an energetic creative atmosphere keeps students engaged, and I maintain balance with periods of calm concentration. Working closely with teachers and support staff to share skills and knowledge, students are encouraged to work collaboratively, make independent choices and share ideas non-verbally. https://paperprojects.org/why-draw Fri, 17 Apr 2020 13:00:46 +0000 Arts Education https://paperprojects.org/why-draw <img width="1135" height="1135" width_o="1135" height_o="1135" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/da7a81ba120f1814dee841e7bce6b485d0d0d516979b4a2707fff158a5596f61/1.jpg" data-mid="67345046" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/da7a81ba120f1814dee841e7bce6b485d0d0d516979b4a2707fff158a5596f61/1.jpg" /> <img width="1037" height="648" width_o="1037" height_o="648" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8e09cf2f8f53fff55390438d2a4d9ca73764da6c9cde46e7bc2dc4f3b718ea17/2.jpg" data-mid="67345047" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8e09cf2f8f53fff55390438d2a4d9ca73764da6c9cde46e7bc2dc4f3b718ea17/2.jpg" /> <img width="2560" height="1536" width_o="2560" height_o="1536" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/73a662f1bfa910dbcd75584ec5351d2209ef382514351a7f4e9a81a272bc07cb/3.jpg" data-mid="67345048" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/73a662f1bfa910dbcd75584ec5351d2209ef382514351a7f4e9a81a272bc07cb/3.jpg" /> <img width="2054" height="2054" width_o="2054" height_o="2054" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0829c22284922cdd0e8316e1ef7d4ed2af4d7746b92df0563ac1e05ee287de7a/4.jpg" data-mid="67345049" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0829c22284922cdd0e8316e1ef7d4ed2af4d7746b92df0563ac1e05ee287de7a/4.jpg" /> <img width="1462" height="1954" width_o="1462" height_o="1954" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cb03e84d8d32956744bb4a9453864427427d1f53308741d6950fcb45f9eb302b/5.jpg" data-mid="67345050" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cb03e84d8d32956744bb4a9453864427427d1f53308741d6950fcb45f9eb302b/5.jpg" /> <img width="1536" height="2560" width_o="1536" height_o="2560" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e1dfc95f8109a1a4c1aa6a7c4e5055b88a273d3e5a10e8d0eac5067234143430/6.jpg" data-mid="67345055" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e1dfc95f8109a1a4c1aa6a7c4e5055b88a273d3e5a10e8d0eac5067234143430/6.jpg" /> <img width="1536" height="2560" width_o="1536" height_o="2560" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0cc512c5d7126a4609aa5e3581f5b97c8dbb6a09e9f0ded342bc7af9f3482ee0/WHY-DRAW.jpg" data-mid="67345056" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0cc512c5d7126a4609aa5e3581f5b97c8dbb6a09e9f0ded342bc7af9f3482ee0/WHY-DRAW.jpg" /> Drawing is a simple activity with transformative powers.Drawing can...
