This workshop provides participants with a comprehensive practical introduction to the art of Islamic ornamentation in the Persian style.
The workshop begins with a theoretical introduction to the history of the development of Islamic ornamentation and its schools (Arabic, Turkish, Persian), along with an introduction to aesthetic principles and traditional tools.
Participants then move on to the practical side by drawing basic decorative elements such as curves, flowers, leaves, and buds. They will then practice planning a complete decorative pattern, starting from the design on paper and continuing through transferring, colouring, and gilding to the final touches. At the end of the workshop, each participant will create their own decorative painting using professional tools and techniques.
