Frequently asked questions

What should I bring to the workshop?

Bring your creativity! All tools, including brushes, paints, tiles (20x20cm), and even aprons, are provided free of charge.

I have never painted before; can I attend the workshop?

You bet. Turkish Tile art is very specific form of art, as long as you are willing to learn it, you do not have to be an expert to attend the workshop. I will also prepare the tile by applying basic rough paint to the surface of the tile, you can choose one of these to get started with painting.

I have seen beautiful tiles in mosques and palaces in Istanbul, is it the same art?

Most definitely. There are different styles and techniques for creating Turkish tiles, but one of the most amazing examples of this tile can be seen in mosques all over Turkey. Visit the Rustempaşa Mosque ( location: Eminönü )to see the best examples.
