Class description
In this course, we paint in a free-improvising and spontaneous way, without blocking templates, ideas, or intentions. We see what wonderful experiences free painting offers: expressive and personal paintings with their own style. Work steps and layers of paint become layers, and production processes become part of the work. Painting here is a journey of discovery in which classic acrylic painting techniques are creatively expanded through experiments and spontaneous ideas: Forms develop from the play of colors. And space develops from surfaces, lines, structures on the surface. Hinrich Schüler supports our work by correcting and giving short lectures on composition and color theory.
Date and key data:
- Date: Friday April 21 - Monday April 24, 2023

- Lecturer: Hinrich JW Schüler (*1964 Wittmund/Nordsee) worked as a freelance artist in Hamburg and Schwäbisch Gmünd after studying art at the University of Oldenburg; he has lived and worked in Düsseldorf since 2005. Schüler's works are in public and private collections. Hinrich JW Schüler has also worked as a speaker and lecturer in many creative fields of adult education since 1994. Hinrich JW Schüler draws on an almost endless pool of knowledge about art history, art and painting, which he readily and very professionally passes on to his painting students. He meets course participants on equal footing. Hinrich JW Schüler is Northern German, direct, yet without exception appreciative. He never expresses criticism without at the same time offering support or an individual solution for further action. The artist has the gift of showing his painting students ways out of seemingly complicated and blocked creative situations and works.
Please note that this course takes place over 4 consecutive days.

What initially began as a passion and with attending various artistic seminars developed into a freelance work as a visual artist. My work focuses in particular on free and (figurative) abstract painting.
