After two years of working online, it has been exciting to get back into a classroom and experience the Drawing Studio in real life. Students took advantage of the situation and quickly developed a friendly and supportive community. In four weeks of the program, Drawing Studio became a place to explore ideas, develop skills and collaborate with other SIT Studios. I was impressed by the students’ dedication to create, share feedback and work collectively towards the final exhibition. It has been a great pleasure to work with these young creatives and I hope they will continue to use drawing in developing their talents.
