Smartphones have changed the way we document our lives, especially the built-in cameras which have made us all amateur photographers. With this powerful tool in our pockets what do we choose to document and why? What do these images tell us about ourselves? We are going to use our photo collections to inspire our drawing and tell a story. Bringing a little one who doesn't have a smartphone? No problem, you can both interpret a photo together.

Materials: smartphone, paper, drawing tools.
