You will be handling actual materials—from etching presses and wire cutters to block printing inks—working through the same messy, iterative process that actual designers use to solve problems. ### Think, Don't Just Copy Most art classes teach you how to render a perfect image. We teach you how to think. Whether you are aiming for a design portfolio for NID, RISD, or Parsons, or simply want to find your artistic voice, our specialized workshops are designed to break your reliance on templates and references. ### The Workshop Experience Our 5-day intensive workshops (30 hours of instruction) at our Prabhadevi studio are where the real work happens. You aren't just sitting and listening; you are in the thick of it: * **Fashion Studio:** Beyond illustration, we dive into fabric play and concept-driven design. * **Product Design:** You move from sketching to creating tangible prototypes, learning the empathy required to design for real-world needs. * **Printmaking & Graphic Design:** You learn to master the press and the layout, transforming raw concepts into bold visual statements. ### What You Leave With These sessions are about process documentation. We don't just care about the polished final piece; we care about the mood boards, the failed experiments, and the ideation sheets. This is the 'messy' part that top design colleges actually look for. You will leave with a clear understanding of your own creative process and at least one complex, portfolio-ready project. If you are a Grade 9-12 student, this is your time to test the waters of a creative career without the fluff. ## About Purnima Sampat I started this studio because I saw too many students learning to copy, not to think. At my Prabhadevi space, we treat you like a colleague, not a student. Come ready to get your hands dirty, make mistakes, and actually build something you are proud of.
