The World Beyond Words
Learn art and poetry in this course, which is composed of more than 6 hours of exclusive content!
Hey, I'm Lucas Lopes.
A visual artist and illustrator with a career marked by poetic experimentation and the connection between image and metaphor. My artistic research explores the dialogue images can establish with the world, opening doors to new internal and external realities.
Originally from Brazil and based in Barcelona, I work across different mediums and techniques, creating watercolor, natural pigment, acrylic paintings, sculptures, murals, and visual installations for libraries and cultural centers. My work also extends to the world of illustration, collaborating with publishers, theaters, and music projects.
Throughout my career, I developed projects for institutions such as Sesc São Paulo, Itaú Cultural, Caixa Cultural, and Fábricas de Cultura.
Additionally, I am active in art education, having worked as an Artist-Teacher in schools focused on artistic initiation and conducting pedagogical research, courses, and creative workshops.
All this experience is reflected in his course "Beyond Words," where I teach the creation of cut-out and painted paper characters, blending technique with visual poetry. With an accessible and intuitive approach, the course offers an immersive experience in art and visual storytelling, allowing anyone, regardless of experience, to discover new ways to tell stories through
imagery.

Course Content
I'll guide you through the entire process of designing and bringing unique characters to life—by hand, with paper, watercolor, and poetry.
We’ll begin by choosing materials, sketching ideas, and experimenting with textures and color. From there, we’ll dive into the structure of each piece: cutting, folding, assembling, and opening doors that reveal tiny inner worlds.
You’ll learn to develop visual narratives that are both delicate and powerful, using simple tools to express something profound. Each project invites you to slow down, observe, and rediscover the joy of creating with your own hands.
This is a course rooted in presence, detail, and imagination—no digital tools needed, just paper, patience, and a sense of wonder.
