Diamond Time – Drawing and painting Workshop facilitated by artist Ahmed Sabri

This workshop is designed for beginners and art students who are interested in learning how to research different ways of thinking, rather than specific painting techniques.

The workshop will take place in Medrar from Sunday, May 8, 2016 to Sunday, May 22, 2016. There will be a total of 7 lectures offered on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays each week at 4 PM. After the workshop, there will be a three-day exhibition to showcase the work produced during the workshop.

  • Lecture Three: Collecting materials to create improvised paintings (5 hours)
  • Fourth lecture: Determine a topic for work and discussion (5 hours)
  • Fifth lecture: An open lecture to a group of artists about quoting, theft, imitation, paraphrasing, and how to write about the artistic project with more than one concept (3 hours)
