Marisa Grilo is a multidisciplinary artist based in Portugal whose practice moves between ceramics, printmaking, and expressive illustration. Her work is deeply influenced by nature, tactile processes, and experimentation with materials. She is co-founder of doBARRO, a ceramics studio and shop in Porto dedicated to creative exploration and hands-on making. Marisa is also a member of the collective Squid Ink Works and has over five years of experience working directly with children and diverse audiences through artistic activities and workshops. Through her practice and teaching, she seeks to create accessible and playful spaces where people can connect with materials, creativity, and slow craft.
Not at all! The workshop is designed to be accessible regardless of your experience. Through simple exercises, you’ll explore drawing and storytelling at your own pace.
It’s designed for adults who used to enjoy drawing as children but stopped over time, as well as anyone who wants to reconnect with their creativity and enjoy drawing without pressure or expectations.
You’ll take part in simple drawing exercises designed to loosen up your hand, unlock your drawing style and help you rediscover the pleasure of creating. The focus is on experimentation, confidence and enjoying the process rather than producing a perfect result.
Yes, all the materials needed for the workshop are included, so you don’t need to bring your own art supplies.
You’ll have the opportunity to create drawings during the session and take away the experience of reconnecting with your creativity. The organiser doesn’t specify exactly which finished pieces participants will keep, so it’s best to confirm this with DoBarro if you’d like to know what you can take home.
