2.  Arteast Workshop with Hamid Ayoub


Loose and Free - Unleash the Power of Your Creativity with Palette Knives

Art has always been used as a method of expressing beauty and unseen emotions. Art has also been used - in its various appearances from sculpture, creative writing to painting - to restore hope, maintain creativity and channel feelings that can be difficult to express.

In this workshop, Hamid will guide the participants through the journey of discovering the therapeutic aspect of art making. The journey will start with fundamental concepts of visual art, through the unleashing power of creativity. Participants will explore the magic of palette knife painting techniques, using acrylic, oil or watercolour. A list of supplies will be provided to all registrants.

Hamid is known for his use of bright colours to enhance and communicate joy and movement in his paintings. He is a graduate in Fine Arts and has exhibited his work internationally. For more info on Hamid see: https://www.hamidayoub.net/
