Create an impactful pop-art style self-portrait with collage artist Birungi Kawooya, who will help you to reveal your inner creative. “But I can’t draw!” you say. Self-taught artist, Birungi teaches absolute beginners to shake off nerves, focus the mind and create freely. Using scrap paper from around your home, you will surprise yourself and transform yourself into a masterpiece! It could inspire your next author portrait.

You will need:

  • a sheet of white paper

  • three identically sized sheets of coloured paper that are different colours/patterns e.g. magazine/newspaper/wrapping or wallpaper

  • scissors

  • glue/blu-tack/double-sided tape

  • an open mind!
