Join us at our professional art studio in the artistic NDSM district of Amsterdam! Sculpt and paint colorful ocean-inspired reliefs using clay. Enjoy a cup of organic tea/coffeee with light bites, while learning new art methods in a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere.

What makes it unique with us:
It's multidisciplinary approach; blending sculpture, painting, and creative play into one immersive experience. In this hands-on session, participants will create vibrant ocean-inspired reliefs using lightweight clay, acrylic paint, and oil pastels, combining technique and expression in a truly original way. You will be able to integrate ancient techniques into your artwork.

What is our concept:
Participants will learn and explore:

• How to make a sculptural relief
• How to draw inspiration from nature and natural forms
• How to integrate painting with sculpture
• How to depict depth in both two dimensions (using color) and three dimensions (using clay)
• How to apply a work with a wide range of materials to get a desired result
• Exploring realism to abstraction (depicting realistic waves in unconventional color schemes, or reducing realistic waves into abstract forms)

What we are going to make:
1-Design Composition: Sketch wave lines on your Styrofoam board with pencil/charcoal. Vary size and shape for a realistic seascape. Add larger waves at the bottom for depth.
2-Base Layer: Spread a thin layer of clay (1–2 mm) under and along your lines to create a foundation.
3-Build Waves: Roll clay into snake-like forms and place along your wave peaks. Shape and pull with fingers/tools for smooth or textured effects.
4-Improvise: Repeat for other waves, adding variation in height, depth, and texture to make them stand out.
5-Add Color: Choose two complementary colors (warm or cool). Cover the surface with the darker shade, then use the lighter one for highlights to create movement and depth.
6-Final Touches: Add accents with pastels or paint pens, then finish with a glossy varnish for a water-like shine.

Structure:

• 15 minutes: Welcome and introduction
• 30 minutes: Warm-up exercises exploring composition & material
• 1 hour 45 minutes: Guided painting session, expressing inner feelings through abstract or semi-figurative forms
• 15 minutes: Reflection, sharing, and wrap-up

What is included?

• All materials (Pencils, styrofoam canvases, lightweight hobby modelling clay, metal teaspoons (best tool for sculpting wave forms), watered-down acrylic paint, high-quality oil pastels, paint sticks, glossy spray finishing varnish)
• Professional guidance & step-by-step support
• Organic tea/coffee and light snacks

Pricing:
One ticket costs €45, including VAT, with all materials, aprons, gloves, and refreshments (wine, tea, coffee, and bites) provided. Early bird: %10 off limited discount! or bring a fiend and receive €5 discount each!
