Miniature Painting: Geometry

Geometric patterns are one of the most recognisable and meaningful forms of Islamic art. Found in mosques, palaces, manuscripts and everyday objects, these intricate designs reflect balance, order and the beauty of mathematics in the natural world. They also echo the saying of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh): “Allah (God) is Beautiful and loves beautiful things.” Inspired by this idea, Muslims have long decorated buildings, textiles, ceramics and books with beautiful geometric patterns.

Join us for a fun and educational Geometric Watercolour Painting Workshop created especially for kids! Children will explore the fascinating world of Islamic geometric design while carefully painting their own pattern using watercolours. The process of colouring these repeating designs encourages focus and creativity, making the workshop a calm and mindful art experience. Perfect for young creatives and curious minds, this workshop blends art, maths and storytelling in a celebration of Islamic heritage.
