In this workshop, you will create your own artwork on a 40 x 40 cm wooden panel. The focus is not on achieving a perfect final piece, but on discovering and enjoying the creative process. Through playful experimentation, you’ll learn that having fewer choices can often open up more possibilities.

Using small templates and water-diluted acrylic paints, we’ll build up layers and patterns step by step. After a short lunch break, you’ll be introduced to a batik-inspired technique that creates beautiful and often surprising effects on the wooden panel.

The workshop encourages curiosity, exploration, and letting go of expectations about what your artwork should become. For those who would like to dive deeper into the techniques and possibilities, Jeannette will also share several of her own paintings as examples and inspiration.
