Détail du cours/stage

“The richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration” – Claude Monet.

This painting course is designed for everyone, both those with prior experience in painting, and those who never tried it but want to experience the joy of creation. 

In this course, participants will be introduced to the basics of composition and colour relationships, learn about different acrylic painting techniques and experiment with textures and backgrounds. Participants will reveal their creativity and spontaneity, expressing their emotions on canvas.

In the beginning of the course, participants will experiment in making sketches, based on which they will work on their paintings.

Participants can bring some landscape photographs from their travels or other images of their favourite landscape (mountains, sea, ocean, forests, rivers, distant fields, etc.), based on which they will create a unique interpretation of the landscape.
