Abstract
The article presents the experiences from open-air drawing workshops in Hrubieszów, Poland (2022) and Kraków, Poland (2019-2022), organised for landscape architecture students from the Faculty of Architecture at Cracow University of Technology (FA-CUT), Kraków, Poland. The objective is to emphasise that open-air drawing workshops are useful in developing drawing skills and individual artistic means of expression, as well as in developing observation skills and spatial imagination. The conducted research supports the view that open-air drawing workshops enhance the teaching process by preparing students for their future design work. It improves their competencies and provides them with an opportunity to learn new skills through intense experience, reflection, thinking and active experimentation. The majority of FA-CUT landscape architecture students who took part in the drawing professional practice in the period 2019-2022, confirmed in surveys that they found the experience important for the education of landscape architects and they expressed the opinion that the most important goals of the workshops had been achieved.
