Painting

Participants will delve into the use of colours, shapes, balance, focal points, and rhythm, learning not only the techniques behind painting but also how it serves as a tool for understanding and interpreting the world around us. Through hands-on activities, participants will use various tools, paint types, and surfaces such as canvas, wood, plastic, and paper to bring their ideas to life. They’ll also engage in the fascinating process of extracting scents and pigments from natural ingredients, transforming their art into a sensory experience. Painting becomes more than an aesthetic endeavour—it’s a way of researching, imagining, and making sense of the world.
