Freedom for Art, Special Workshop on art on account of Indepence Day

Freedom  for  Art
Celebrate Independence day day through art
(A one day exclusive workshop on art)

Art House is the result of the collaborative efforts of dedicated artists with a vision to change the way young art is perceived. Having struggled to find an exhibiting platform, decided to create a space where any upcoming artist would be free to display his or her talent.

Since past 3 years Art House is holding art workshops for public who are interested to learn art, here we bring in practicing and professional artist to teach drawing and painting. Skill is taught in our workshop by demonstration by the artists, followed by practical sessions for participants.  The teachers take a round while all participants are working; they correct them while going wrong. 

We do not take more that 15 + 5 participants in a batch, so that we can give one to one attention while they are drawing or painting.  Also all our workshops are out-door, as we believe that a lot could happen in nature (each participants get inspired by various elements around them), unlike studio practice like all participants are made to draw still life or life study.

On account of 66th Indian Independence Day on 15th August, we are holding a one day workshop in various categories like line drawing, charcoal drawing, caricature drawing, water color, creative painting, wood-cut and printing and origami.
