Drawing course
A little history...
The first drawings are in the prehistoric stage, when the homo erectus, the humans of that time, represented on the walls what they considered important to convey: fighters, animals, food ... At that time the drawing was very important as it acquired the language function, used to convey ideas without needing to mediate words. Even now, drawing is considered as a universal language. Hence, there are drawings that have been recognized as icons.
"And you, who pretend to demonstrate the figure of man with words, take this idea away from you, because the more you describe, the more you confuse the spirit of the reader and the more you will get away from the idea of the thing described, it is necessary to represent it and describe it If you find it easier to know the natural object because it is in relief, than the one that is drawn, since you can see the object from different sides, you must understand that, in the different images that I give you (successively) from several sides , you will get the same effect, you will draw the bones of the neck from three points of view separately, then you will do it from above and from below and thus you will give the true idea of their figures, ideas that neither the ancient nor the modern authors could ever have give as true, without an extensive and annoying paragraph.

Painting course
In the evolution of its history, painting has taken different forms, according to the different media and techniques that have emerged. Until the twentieth century, painting is based on the art of drawing. In the West, fresco painting. At the end of the middle ages and during the Renaissance, it is based on the application of paint on fresh or dry plaster.
Over the centuries, different methods and artistic styles have been happening, as well as theories related to the purpose of art, in some cases reappearing in later times with some modification.
In the Renaissance, fresco painting on walls and ceilings gave way to easel painting in oil, but was re-updated in the twentieth century with the works of Mexican muralists.
The need to express an emotion through art unites painters. there have always been painters bent on representing the exterior aspects exactly. Realism and symbolism have alternated throughout the history of painting, revealing significant affinities and influences.
"Yes, Millet's painting, the Angelus of the evening," is something ", it's magnificent, it's poetry, with how much pleasure I'd still talk about art with you, but we only have to write frequently, find everything beautiful you can; most do not find anything beautiful enough. "

Young artists
When children are young and interested in art, we must let them express their creativity because it is very important for their integral development.
Art is a language that will make the child express itself through different elements and it will be creativity and imagination that have a more important role in this whole process. Art for children is a way of life and has many benefits.
That your child wants to draw throughout the house does not mean that in his adult life he is going to dedicate himself to be an artist, but if you let him express himself freely, then he can be whatever he wants to be
because he will be a more sensitive, safer person with great communication skills.
When the child draws, paints or performs other activities of plastic expression, without realizing it, he will be expressing emotions and sensations, even those that are deeper within his being, because emotions are present in us since we are born.
In order for the child to enjoy the art, we must empower them to do so. That is why in this course for the children we work with a good program prepared to work different aspects in an exponential and very creative way, learning with different materials in different exercises that increase their abilities, interest and motivation for art.
This course is aimed at people between 5 and 16 years of age. Dividing these ages into two groups, children from 5 to 10 years old, and young people from 10 to 16 years old. So to be able to work with them in the most appropriate way at their age.
Each student goes at his / her own pace, that is why the classes are very personal, and they progress individually, regardless of the rhythm of the classmate. In this way, each one focuses on their work, their own evolution and avoid prejudices and comparisons.

History of art
The history of art is an important way to better understand the complex set of thoughts and feelings that Humanity has had throughout the centuries. But also what a group in certain conditions or context has generated and what through that form of art (painting, sculpture, film, photography, textiles, architecture, music, theater, decoration) has tried to transmit.
When we talk about history we refer to the study of the past, that is, of what was already. We can make general history of Humanity but we can also specify our study in some branch or specific information that forces us to carry a much more personalized analysis of the data.
Art is not only an artistic work in itself but it is much more than that: it is the understanding that the human being of a particular time makes of it, what it seeks to express and also what it wants to generate in those who enjoy that work . Art, and with that also the history of art, seeks to decipher and swim in the depths of the complex human mind that needs means to channel itself and make its mark.
in this course we work chronologically, focusing on the most significant events and
the representatives of each era and some of his works.
We can delve into many of these works, place them in a chronological context, as well as in the life of the author. Know the pretension of the different works, as well as the management of the technique used.
