Studio : GET DRAWING!

Designed as a space for quiet and relaxation, the Studio is also a window onto the Louvre’s collection, inviting exploration and presenting all visitors with an opportunity to give free rein to their creativity.

The Studio offers a variety of self-guided activities, inspired by the museum’s artworks. These activities celebrate the art of drawing, which plays a key role both in the Louvre’s collection and in the fine arts.

Help yourself to the materials and tools provided to experiment, trace, sketch out, pencil in, draft and draw – depict the world around you and tell your story.

Activities : 

• Carbon Copy 

Use the light table to trace each shape and create a realistic drawing! 

• Colour the sky

Using the artworks as inspiration, take up a piece of chalk and trace, colour in, rub, create layers and add your art to everyone else’s to make colours and clouds appear in the sky.

• Strike a pose

Sit down at an easel and take your time observing the model. Look at their proportions, the shapes and the lines that make up their body. With a crayon sketch out the model’s whole body – or just a part.

• The superpowers of drawing

Using the activity worksheets provided, choose from the tools at your disposal, play with their different techniques and delve into the superpowers of drawing.
