Designed for beginners and art-lover alike, this 3 Day retreat into the visual arts will fuel your creative soul!
Unleash Your Inner Artist in a 3-Day Creative Adventure! 🎨✨
Join me for a hands-on, creativity-packed 3-day art intensive, perfect for beginners and art lovers alike! We’ll explore concept building, sketching, and drawing, then dive into acrylic painting techniques to bring your unique masterpieces to life. Each day is filled with fun, from group activities to immersive workshops, all in a relaxed and inspiring studio setting.
For creatives that are heading in to the Arts Industry, professional insights and guidance will be offered to manage the business side of creativity.
Guided by Expressive Abstract artist Karen Klucowicz, this experience is designed to feed your creative soul and spark new artistic adventures. Held in my DyeWorks studio at The Cotton Factory, a dynamic hub for artists, you’ll also enjoy an exclusive Factory tour—meet fellow creatives, soak in the inspiration, and explore current exhibitions.
Don't worry - I don't like to disappoint - I run the event even if I only get 1 person registered. One-on-one guidance is guaranteed - group size is limited to 3 participants.
LOCATION: My studio is at The Cotton Factory in Hamilton, Ontario. NOTE: There are many entrances to this complex so make sure your gps is directed to the Dyeworks Studio at 9 Landsdowne Avenue! Plenty of street parking and a lot at the back of the Factory [free].
