Angles & Abstraction: Exploring Cubist Art Workshop

Cubism Unlocked A modernist painting workshop where you will create bold, cubist inspired artworks in a day!

Step into the revolutionary world of Cubism – one of the most influential and exciting art movements of the 20th century. Join EK for this full-day Cubist painting workshop, to learn the core principles of this groundbreaking style and create your own unique Cubist still life, portrait, and abstract artwork.
