Graphite portrait drawing workshop for kids in Lisbon with Catarina Alves, a teacher and artist passionate about drawing and the power of creativity, a one-hour hands-on session at 25 euros where children explore the expressive possibilities of graphite through the creation of portraits. All materials included, no prior artistic experience required, in a relaxed, encouraging and genuinely supportive environment where the focus is on enjoying the creative process as much as the finished result.<\/p>\n
The session covers basic graphite drawing techniques, observing and drawing facial features, proportion and portrait construction, lines, shapes and different drawing techniques, light, shadow and creating depth, textures and details using graphite and how to give a portrait expression and personality. Catarina guides every child through the process with personalised support, encouraging each one to explore their own style and build confidence in their artistic abilities at their own pace.<\/p>\n
