IMPORTANT: You must send your photo in advance to Ilse Versluijs, so your portrait can be prepped ahead of time. This way, you’ll have the full workshop time to make it beautiful and glamorous.

Being a superstar, world-famous, a superhero like Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Batman, Superman or Spiderman — seeing your own face everywhere: in magazines, on the streets, in shop windows, even on buses and trams! We all dream of that.
Now’s your chance to create your very own glamorous self-portrait as a pop star or superhero — in billboard format!

Pick a nice photo of yourself showing your face and upper body clearly. You can even practice drawing yourself at home on A4 paper. Together, we’ll paint your superhero or pop star portrait larger than life! We’ll add your name in bold letters, because maybe not everyone knows you yet... but after this, they probably will!

Parents and guardians are welcome to come and watch during the final 10 minutes.
