Texture Painting Workshop: Sea | Mixed Media Workshop

Tuesday 1 December 2026 | 9:30 am–12:00 pm
Heger en van den Berg | Voorheuvel 76 | Zeist

Find inspiration in the colours, textures and movement of the sea during this creative texture painting workshop. Using mixed media techniques, you’ll build up an atmospheric painting layer by layer, with texture, depth and colour at its heart.

You’ll work on canvas with acrylic paint, modelling paste, sand, ink and other materials to create a unique piece of art. Step by step, you’ll discover how to combine different materials and use relief, colour and composition to give your painting a strong visual impact.

This workshop is suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists. You don’t need any drawing or painting experience. I’ll guide you step by step and help you whenever needed. There’s plenty of room to develop your own style and experiment with materials and techniques.

Materials

Most materials are included.

You’ll work on a 30 × 30 cm canvas. Acrylic paint, ink, modelling paste, sand and a variety of natural materials will also be available. You’re welcome to bring your own beach finds or other materials to give your painting a personal touch.

Please bring the following items:

• A flat brush, 1.5–2 cm wide (a short handle is fine). If you prefer working with fine details, bring some smaller brushes too.
• An apron or old clothes
• Scissors
• Plastic to protect your table, such as a bin bag cut open
• A water container
• A plate covered with cling film, or a disposable plastic plate, to use as a palette
• Wet wipes or baby wipes
• An old cloth to clean your brush
• Optional: your favourite acrylic paint colours or inks
• Optional: a palette knife
• Optional: materials you’d like to incorporate into your artwork, such as natural materials, sand, paper or fabric

After the Workshop

Hairdryers will be available to help dry your artwork during the workshop. Since a painting with substantial texture takes longer to dry and fully cure, it’s a good idea to bring something suitable for transporting your painting flat, such as a piece of plastic or a large bin bag.
