A painting course for both experienced and complete beginners, led by Melou Vanggaard. You work alongside painters with varied backgrounds, some with years of practice and some with fewer, all sharing a strong curiosity about painting and expressing yourself.
Teaching starts from each participant's own level, so you can join even with little experience and receive guidance from the very beginning. Subjects range widely, from working after photographs to observation exercises with flowers, figures, portraits and interiors. The Tuesday and Wednesday groups work mainly in acrylic, though gouache and oil are also possible. You will learn how to begin a painting, sketch out your composition and use techniques along the way to the finished piece.
There is ongoing dialogue with the teacher as needed, and you can also choose to work undisturbed and focused on your own process. The course is built on your own joy in drawing and painting and on developing your powers of observation.
