3 Day Art Intensive

Unleash Your Inner Artist in a 3-Day Creative Adventure! 🎨✨

Join me for a hands-on, creativity-packed 3-day art intensive, perfect for beginners and art lovers alike! We’ll explore concept building, sketching, and drawing, then dive into acrylic painting techniques to bring your unique masterpieces to life. Each day is filled with fun, from group activities to immersive workshops, all in a relaxed and inspiring studio setting.

Guided by Expressive Figurative artist Karen Klucowicz, this experience is designed to feed your creative soul and spark new artistic adventures. Held in my studio at The Cotton Factory, a dynamic hub for artists, you’ll also enjoy an exclusive Factory tour—meet fellow creatives, soak in the inspiration, and explore current exhibitions.

LOCATION: My studio is at The Cotton Factory in Hamilton, Ontario. NOTE: There are many entrances to this complex so make sure your gps is directed to the Dyeworks Studio at 9 Landsdowne Avenue! Plenty of street parking and a lot at the back of the Factory [free].
