In this workshop, you'll learn how to use a variety of materials and techniques to create impressive textures and dimensions in your artwork. Perfect for beginners and advanced artists looking to expand their artistic skills. Using high-quality texture paste, you'll sculpt, shape, and layer your own three-dimensional work of art. No previous experience is required, and there are no rules—just pure creative freedom. Whether you prefer abstract textures, bold patterns, or organic forms, this hands-on session allows you to explore materials and techniques at your own pace. All tools and materials are provided, and the relaxed atmosphere invites you to immerse yourself in your creative flow. This workshop is perfect for everyone!
This session combines the calming power of sound healing with the liberating energy of creation , taking you into a space where relaxation and creativity converge. You are invited to take a break and switch off from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
We begin with a deep sound bath using Tibetan singing bowls and vibrational tones to calm the nervous system, relax the mind, and bring you fully into your body. The vibrations and harmonics activate your parasympathetic nervous system —your "rest and digest" mode—and help reduce stress hormones like cortisol. As your brain exits survival mode, it opens space for exploration, play, and imaginative thinking.
From this state of deep calm and presence, we move on to intuitively creating our structured pastel work. Here, you are invited to follow your impulses, let the colors flow, and create without judgment. In this playful space, your inner critic softens, emotions can be released, and ideas emerge naturally.
