In classes we learn that drawing is an art to which we must devote time. We learn, little by little, to delay the reinforcement, dedicating more and more time to improve our drawing. We learn to draw vertically on an easel, to hold the pencil in different ways, to separate ourselves from the drawing and look for errors. We learn to structure and simplify. We learn to stop, observe and wait. We learn to pamper what motivates us. We learn much more than drawing in class, but above all we learn to love and take care of what we do.
