A playful and colourful exploration of identity through pop-art-inspired painting

This Funny Fruit workshop is designed for groups seeking a fun and lighthearted creative session that celebrates individuality and connection. In a single 2-hour session, participants will explore their personalities through art, each painting a fruit that reflects their character or mood. All materials are provided, and no prior experience is necessary. The session includes interactive activities, encouraging laughter, reflection, and shared moments while creating bold, vibrant artwork.

Great recipes need a mix of flavours and a splash of fun.

A Recipe for Reflection

The workshop will incorporate a conscious theme of identity, introduced with a short, guided meditation to set a reflective and relaxed tone. Participants will begin with a lighthearted quiz to help select a fruit that represents aspects of their personality. As they paint, they will be encouraged to consider how their chosen fruit symbolises strengths, quirks, and qualities, and optional journaling at the end will provide space to capture thoughts and insights.

Mixing Colours, Blending Ideas

In this workshop, participants will use pre-printed fruit templates, acrylic paints, brushes, and markers to experiment with tracing, colour blocking, and pattern design techniques. With simple step-by-step guidance, they will trace their fruit onto the canvas and add layers of colour and detail to make their artwork unique. While the process is structured, there is room for creative expression to personalise each piece.

The final Slice

By the end of the session, participants will have created an individual pop-art-style fruit painting that represents their personality or mood. The finished piece will serve as a fun and meaningful reminder of self-expression, shared laughter, and the idea that the best recipes blend all the right ingredients.
