Teaching begins with you: Learning to draw enhances your communication skills using the visual language of art, creating dynamic teachers. Develop your cognitive skills, improve your self-confidence, and learn how to teach your new drawing skills to children in simple fun ways, every day. Every line, every mark on a creation, tells a story. Drawing skills foster the language of art as an expressive medium for meaningful reciprocal conversations via storytelling and self-reflection.
