The Method
Drawing Club was designed to help you progress step by step, keeping you up to date and trained, in practice. The live trainings are scheduled in advance through the club's WhatsApp group and are recorded on the platform, and you also get the chance to submit work, portfolios and CVs for Renata Estefan to review and support you in your career.
Club calendar
Each month is a four-week cycle. Sessions are live and recorded on the platform.
Week 1
The month's tasks are assigned for each product category (ready-to-wear, leather goods, footwear and jewellery). Doing the tasks is not mandatory. In the first week, the super images are also made available, part of Renata Estefan's personal and exclusive research archive.
Week 2
The Super Drawings are an exclusive selection of drawing bases chosen, used and made available by Renata Estefan, straight from her personal archive, for Drawing Club members.
Week 3
On essential, practical topics for your value in the market: creative process, inspiration research, detail research, artificial intelligence, interviews, CV, portfolio, product DNA and more.
Week 4
Members can apply to have their projects reviewed by Renata Estefan. The reviews are direct, objective and follow the same level of demand as the great European schools and maisons. Even if you don't submit your project, you learn by watching the reviews of the other participants.
