Let's Create Dot Art - Mandala Rocks

Dots are considered the most basic building block of art. Dot painting has long been an art form, found as patterns on artefacts, as sand paintings, mehndi designs, and other body art. Over time, it evolved into a variety of styles and applications, like stippling in the 1500s for engraving, and pointillism painting in Paris in the late 1880s. 

These workshops are designed to demystify the technique of dot painting, whether you are a beginner who is learning a new skill, a creative hobbyist, or an artist. 

Follow along with Nashifa Rashid as she shows you how to create colourful mandala designs on rocks that could just as easily be replicated as mehndi patterns.
