A painting workshop with Filipino artist Dominic Deocampo as part of the World of Cultures celebration. In this workshop, participants will learn about the colourful art and culture of Southern Philippines and at the same time will learn on the basics of painting: layering and color mixing – using only 3 primary colors.
The Sarimanok (pronounced as sá·ri·ma·nók) is Philippine mythical legendary bird and a symbol of the Maranao, the people of the lake, known for their vibrant colors. Maranao is a predominantly Filipino ethnic group in Southern Philippines. Sarimanok is portrayed as a bird with assorted and vibrant colours mostly in spiral motifs holding a fish on its beak. It represents good fortune.
Each participant will paint a Sarimanok on a small canvas and take it home with them. All materials provided.
