Each student managed to draw a large number of his own sketches. It's incredible how ordinary graphic materials and a few minutes can turn a dynamic, constantly moving figure into a work of art. It was a challenge for the students – to get out of the static workshop into the complex conditions of the museum, where lighting is only due to the illumination of the aquariums. It was so exciting that everyone forgot about time and space and felt like they were in another dimension. Each spent several hours creating a large number of sketches of different types of jellyfish, trying to capture their beautiful shape and texture.

 

 

Sketching develops students' creativity and the ability to express their ideas visually. They learn to observe details, analyze shapes and proportions, understand composition, and use color to create mood. Sketching also develops motor coordination and helps develop the ability to quickly transfer thoughts and ideas to paper. As a result, sketching students become more creative, adaptable and confident in their abilities. In general, sketching is an important development tool that helps them realize their potential and establish themselves as professionals in their chosen field.
