Art hacks – Find Your Art Style

Art Hacks – Find Your Art Style is a 12-week hands-on workshop designed for artists who want to understand how great masters developed their unique visual language—and how to do the same.

Every artist admires someone. From Leonardo da Vinci to Van Gogh, from Frida Kahlo to Picasso, from Basquiat to Warhol, art history is full of creators who absorbed tradition and then transformed it into something radically personal.

In this course, you’ll explore the most influential art movements—from the Renaissance, Impressionism, Expressionism, Surrealism, Cubism, and Contemporary Art—learning not only techniques, but the ideas, context, and creative decisions behind them.

Each week, you’ll analyze how artists used color, composition, texture, symbolism, and experimentation to express emotion and meaning. You’ll learn how to simplify complex ideas, break rules intelligently, and reinterpret historical styles through your own perspective.

This is not about copying.

This is about experimentation, creative play, and building your own artistic language.

Throughout history, artists have used tools, tricks, and “hacks” to support their vision:

·  Leonardo da Vinci and the camera obscura

·  Vermeer’s projected perspective

·  Degas’ use of photography

·  Picasso and Braque’s collage techniques

·  Warhol’s screen printing

·  Dalí’s tracing and projection methods

In this workshop, you’ll explore grids, transfers, stencils, collage, mixed media, and digital tools—without guilt. Because art has never been about the method. It’s about vision, intention, and expression.

Your style doesn’t appear overnight.
It’s built through trial, error, curiosity, and courage.

What You’ll Learn

By the end of this course, participants will have developed:

• A deeper way of seeing
• The ability to simplify complex visual ideas
• Stronger structure and composition
• Emotional awareness through color and form
• A clearer personal artistic voice
• Intentional use of tools and materials
• Confidence to move between styles or blend techniques
• A collaborative relationship with materials and process

This is not just “Paint Like the Masters.”
This is learning to think, create, and decide like an artist.
