It is a course oriented to mental training and focused in creating an image capable of transmitting the right content and tone regardless of the medium in which it will be disclosed; the computer will provide us speed and versatility in the execution. The aim is to foster analysis capabilities and creativity in illustration, each day articles, reflections, subjects or opinions will be drawn and corrected.

The course is intended to anyone who has an interest in the creative process and in illustration as a mean of information and communication.
