Recharge & Create: Intuitive Marbling & Collage Workshop 🎨✨

Burnout prevention and recovery are supported when we slow down and reconnect with our senses. Creating with water, colour, and our hands offers a gentle way to ground and let intuition lead.

On Sunday, January 11th at 2.45 pm, we’ll meet at the Treehouse NDSM where Secil, founder of Art Studio Amsterdam, will guide us through an intuitive marbling and collage workshop.

We’ll start with a brief demonstration of marbling, a technique that involves painting directly on water using natural pigments and chemical-free materials, followed by an open time to explore and create marbled prints freely. Then, we’ll use these prints for intuitive collage-making, cutting and layering images following our intuition.

✨ Good to know
