Introduction to Drawing
Basic Course ( 6 weeks )

Drawing has less to do with skillful hands and more with how one sees the world. This course aims to teach you a different way to see the world. Drawing is a basis for everything. This is especially true for painting, where besides the physical mixing of colour and the tactile of the paint, everything else is drawn. The aim of this course is to teach you the fundamentals, which create a solid basis that can be further developed to any directions.

Introduction to Abstract Painting
Basic Course ( 6 weeks )
Thursday, 8th September, Thursday, 13th October,
19:00 - 21:00
Plato found great beauty in simplified forms such as lines and circles. He praised the fact that a painting finds beauty not only in the realistic reproduction of an object but in every line and every spot of color. Abstract painting is the process of arranging colors, contrasts, lines and geometric forms. In doing so, abstract art does not attempt to represent an accurate image of a visual reality. Abstract painting calls for spontaneity and expression. It can be systematic or a reflection of the inner emotional world or one's own interpretation of the outside world.

This workshop is created for sketching enthusiasts with no prior experience, that wish to begin their sketching journey.
