Illustration for self-expression

I was very happy to give a workshop at Nasawiya about using illustration to deal with your frustrations. I had a great time, met lovely people, and we all drew and chatted about illustration. Add to that cake and juice, how better can it get? 🙂

I’d like to thank Nadine Moawad and Joelle Hatem for helping me to organize it, Jessica Dheere from SMEX for the projector, and everyone who attended for their participation and making this fun!

Here’s the outcome of the workshop, for more photos, check out the Facebook photos.

My illustration of the event:

Joelle‘s existential cartoon 😀 [click to enlarge]

A 12-year old girl, Alice El Asmar, surprised us all with her AMAZING TALENT, she’s a real pro [wacom and blog and all!]

Jessica‘s cartoon who looks just like her!

Nadim’s also kind of existential cartoon

Abeer‘s drawing against photography restrictions in Leb – She’s right!

Ali’s Gemmayze demonstration:

If your drawings aren’t here, please send them to me at maya.zankoul [at] gmail [dot] com!

Have a lovely weekend all 🙂 I’m off to play some piano…
