Acrylic on Canvas with Karen Chappelow
Join us for a workshop inspired by Karen Chappelow’s evocative painting ‘My Body My Choice’– a subversive reimagining of the myth of Leda and the Swan that hands the narrative back to the woman at its centre.
Using silhouette templates and expressive mark-making, participants will explore themes of choice, voice, and transformation through acrylic painting on canvas. Karen’s punchy expressionist style and signature lemon-twist wit to reinterpret mythology through a modern lens, where beauty no longer masks cruelty, and control is reclaimed with unapologetic creativity.
All skill levels welcome. Materials provided. Expect conversation, reflection, and bold visual storytelling.
WHEN Sunday 09/08/2025 10am – 1pm
WHERE Courthouse Gallery+Studio 16 Edgar Street, Port Hedland WA 6721
