Paint away your pressures, simply focus your mind on embracing messiness, and let art express the things you can’t articulate.

What is urban sketching? It's basically drawing on location, capturing and documenting what we see from direct observation, indoors and outdoors. Urban sketchers tell the story of their surroundings, their point of view, the places they live and where they travel. The drawings are a record of a certain point in time and place.

Mother and Child is a painting that focuses on women at different stages in their lives. Painted by Gustav Klimt in 1905, it uses soft shades to portray a young woman with a child resting beside her. This painting is also known as, "Le Tre Eta Della Donna".The mother figure has a slightly dreamy quality, as does the child. This is an element which is often infused into Austrian Symbolist paintings. Klimt's art is appreciated for that style and as a result, viewers may see symbols that they associate with the dream world.

Guided Event (Maestro)
Sunday, 11th May,

Although restless beyond measure, with few straight lines, this landscape is one of the most classic in conception among Van Gogh's works. It is build up in great bands that traverse the entire space. The tall dark cypress trees at one side offer a powerful contrast to the prevailing horizontals, which they resemble in form. The oppositions of warm and cool, the proportioning of parts, the relative height of sky and earth on the two sides, the horizontal intervals which we can measure on the silhouette of the distant mountain, twice broken by trees - all these are perfectly legible and well balanced.

Golden Tears (in the style of Gustav Klimt)
Guided Event (Maestro)
Thursday, 3rd April,
19:00 - 21:30
While this painting - Freya’s Tears - is often attributed to Gustav Klimt, it isn’t one of his. This evocative piece was created by Anne Marie Zilberman whose work leans toward facial close-ups. Though not a Klimt, it captures the duality of weeping - that tears can be both for joy and sorrow. And either are as valuable as gold.

Mother and Child is a painting that focuses on women at different stages in their lives. Painted by Gustav Klimt in 1905, it uses soft shades to portray a young woman with a child resting beside her. This painting is also known as, "Le Tre Eta Della Donna".The mother figure has a slightly dreamy quality, as does the child. This is an element which is often infused into Austrian Symbolist paintings. Klimt's art is appreciated for that style and as a result, viewers may see symbols that they associate with the dream world.

Guided Event (Maestro)
Sunday, 11th May,
10:30 - 13:30
Although restless beyond measure, with few straight lines, this landscape is one of the most classic in conception among Van Gogh's works. It is build up in great bands that traverse the entire space. The tall dark cypress trees at one side offer a powerful contrast to the prevailing horizontals, which they resemble in form. The oppositions of warm and cool, the proportioning of parts, the relative height of sky and earth on the two sides, the horizontal intervals which we can measure on the silhouette of the distant mountain, twice broken by trees - all these are perfectly legible and well balanced.

Last Summer (Watercolor)
Guided Event w/ Watercolor
Saturday, 31st May,
14:00 - 16:00
The staircase winds down the cliffside like a ribbon unraveling toward the sea. Smooth, sun-bleached stone steps, worn by years of bare feet and salt air, lead the way through the scent of wild thyme and warm pine. The cicadas hum, their song rising and falling with the gentle breeze that carries the distant laughter of children playing in the waves below.

‘Paint like Vincent: Sunflowers‘
Guided Event (Maestro)
Sunday, 1st June,
14:00 - 17:00
Van Gogh’s paintings of Sunflowers are among his most famous. He did them in Arles, in the south of France, in 1888 and 1889. Vincent painted a total of five large canvases with sunflowers in a vase, with three shades of yellow ‘and nothing else’. In this way, he demonstrated that it was possible to create an image with numerous variations of a single colour, without any loss of eloquence.

WHAT IS THE LANGUAGE OF THE Event?
Our courses are basically English speaking. Receiving explanations in German, French, Italian and Hungarian 😀 is also possible. We can also greet you in Greek.
What is a workshop?
We are putting a great effort to distinguish ‘Events’, ‘Workshops’ and ‘Courses’ since they are indeed different here at Paint It Easy. Events want to be a creative, refreshing and entertaining going-out alternative, while Workshops are designed to teach something or develop a specific skill while still remaining a fun activity. Held by local guest artists!
What is a Course?
Immerse yourself in a comprehensive visual art course, spanning 3 to 6 weeks, with weekly sessions that last 2.5 hours each. These classes are designed for beginners and focus on developing your skills in using various mediums, materials, and surfaces. You’ll explore both figurative and abstract art forms, gaining hands-on experience and building a solid foundation in painting techniques.
