Come improve your artistic skills in a truly immersive experience with other aspiring artists! During this 5-day intensive workshop, our instructors will guide students through the process of drawing and painting realistically through direct observation and practicing the principles and techniques passed down from the old masters.
Students can follow a set of exercises we have planned for the week that include still life, portraiture, and study of the nude figure, but students will also have the opportunity to choose the subjects they wish to focus on. Students can focus on one subject for the entire week or experiment with different subjects and materials. Models, easels, paints, canvas, brushes, and anything else you might need will be provided, so you do not need to bring anything with you except perhaps a sketch book and pencils for taking notes and sketching.
All levels of experience are welcome! Beginners and seasoned artists all have things to learn and we will adjust the teaching and feedback we give to each student. No minimum education required.
Each morning, everyone will gather at 9:00 for coffee and snacks and to have a discussion about the day’s lessons. The instructors will give lectures and demonstrations to illustrate the concepts and techniques that the students will work on each day. On Tuesday afternoon, we will take everyone to the Gothenburg Museum of Art to tour the collection. Transportation to the museum and entrance fees will be covered by us. On Friday we will have a final gathering and talk about the week’s experience.
