By Ruth Ferraz

If you have ever felt that art was out of reach due to its difficulty or cost, this workshop is for you. I believe creativity should be accessible to everyone, and I am excited to share what I have learned from the work of Dr. Betty Edwards and other experts.

I only learned to draw realistically at age 30 through Dr. Edwards’s book, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. Her methods prove that anyone can learn to draw with practice—it is not a skill reserved only for those “born” with talent.

Her Methodology unlock my Artist Talent  powerfully and other skills also.

My teaching is also guided by Dr. Norberto Keppe’s philosophy that art should manifest the good, the beautiful, and the pure.

During my workshops, I have  watched participants who believed they lacked talent discover their own capabilities.

In addition to Edwards’s techniques, I incorporate simple Brain Gym exercises by Dr. Paul Dennison to help connect the brain, body, and mind.

This workshop welcomes beginners, seasoned artists, and professionals from any field. We will practice “seeing like an artist,” fostering a sense of curiosity and focus that supports problem-solving in everyday life. You can view my work here in this website.
