The Textured Art Workshop is an expressive, hands-on experience designed to help you explore depth, movement, and dimension through texture. In this class, you’ll create two original textured paintings, experimenting with a wide range of techniques and tools while developing your own artistic voice.
What makes this workshop truly unique is that we don’t limit you to one style or method. Instead of following a single preset project, you’ll be guided through all major textured art techniques, giving you the confidence and skills to turn any idea into a finished piece. From soft, minimal arches inspired by Pinterest to bold, sculptural 3D florals, layered abstract forms, repetitive patterns, textured ocean waves, and beach-inspired compositions — this class gives you the freedom to explore it all.
No prior experience is needed. The workshop is beginner-friendly while still offering depth, experimentation, and creative growth for returning artists. Everything is included — from all creative materials and professional instruction to light snacks and drinks — so you can fully relax and focus on creating.
