summer course basic painting

In this summer course you can immerse yourself in a sea of floating colours: gently blending, transparently overlapping shimmering layers that evoke flaming skies and blooming fields, or opaque, fiercely contrasting expressive brush strokes or daubs that still define or simply stir the senses.

Attention will be paid to choosing and handling materials (brushes, mediums etc) and different paints, to colour mixing and colour theory, and to workflows and techniques. You are expected to work on an abstract, a still life and a portrait.

After the first introductory session you are expected to bring your own paint (alcrylic, 3 primary colours), brushes and canvases (3). Models, easels, palettes, drawing boards, papers and further accessories are catered by the school.

The sessions are scheduled on all 5 week days from 10-16hrs (except for Wednesday: 10-13), of the weeks of August 7 and 21. The school will cater coffee, tea and lunches and on Friday afternoon there will be a merry conclusion. The course fee is 475 euros.
