What to expect
You'll arrive at WS Art Studio where your instructor will introduce you to the characteristic style of Balinese painting—the proportions, line work, and cultural symbolism. They'll demonstrate how to sketch and apply colour, then guide you as you work on your own piece. The three hours moves at a relaxed rhythm, so there's no pressure to rush. You'll have refreshments on hand, and the studio itself gives you a sense of how local artists actually work. By the end, you'll have something tangible to pack away.
