May 2024 - FLEA MARKET

This theme was the perfect opportunity for our very first "Draw'n'Drink" session! You'll find the photos of said session below.

And on the other hand, we know that other drawings were started during this session and are still not finished: we're waitiiiiiiiing! -> Click on the pictures to be able to see them in full screen. *** Inspired by an african mask seen at the flea market Credit : O.
