Select a programme
Landscape
Drawing inspiration from Biedermeier landscapes of Anton Karinger and Marko Pernhart, you create your own vistas, either real or imaginary.
Technique: pastel and watercolour pencils
Still Life
The Baroque collection displays flower and other still lifes, a popular motif of its time. If you look closely, you find that many of them are filled with symbolism. Through drawing, you get to know the mastery of past painters.
Technique: pastel and watercolour pencils
Animal Motifs
Choose between a portrait of a family pet, ruthless battle between bears and dogs, or the calls of a capercaillie to draw a serene or action-packed scene that represents nature in all of her diversity.
Technique: pastel and watercolour pencils
Coffee Watercolour with Kofetarica/Woman Drinking Coffee
We will paint our own version of the old wrinkly granny that needs just a sip of coffee to bring a smile to her face. Aromatic beverage enlivens our workshop in a different way, too - we get creative with coffee watercolour.
Technique: coffee watercolour
Your Personal Work of Art
