In this paper, I present a qualitative study on practical intelligence in art workshops, through semi-structured interviews with 10 experienced practitioners. As a result of analyzing the interviews using the Modified Grounded Theory Approach, two essential aspects of practical intelligence in art workshops were identified: (1) techniques and skills; and (2) attitudes and concepts. Also, three key factors that contribute to the practitionersʼ expertise were suggested as: (1) experience of a wide variety of workshops; (2) influence of point of view and values from others; (3) reflections on oneself and the workshop itself.
