Relaxing dot painting workshop to create beautiful art at Craft & Culture in Birmingham.
Creating Calm is a dot painting workshop at Craft & Culture in Birmingham on Saturday 14 November. It's exactly what the title suggests: a session dedicated to dot painting, where you spend the time building up a piece of art one dot at a time.
If you've never tried it, dot painting is a bit different from the brushwork you might be used to. Instead of sweeping strokes, you work with dots of paint to create patterns and images, and the whole thing is as much about the process as it is about the finished piece. It's the kind of thing that lets you switch off for a few hours and just focus on what's in front of you, which is where the 'calm' part of the title comes from.
It's held at Craft & Culture, one of the city's creative hubs, so you'll be in a space that's built around making things. You don't need to be an experienced artist to join in, either — it's a workshop, so it's designed for you to pick it up as you go, and you'll leave with something you've made yourself.
