About this class
In the midst of the idyllic nature of Fürstenberg (Havel), a creative day full of inspiration and expression awaits you. You draw and paint water, reeds, plants and animals — intuitively and freely. With various techniques such as ink, charcoal, pastel chalk, etc., you can artistically explore your environment. Experienced course instructor Silke Kirschning will guide you through three creative modules that promote conscious perception and intuitive design. Whether at the lake, in the forest or in the studio — it is the process that counts here, not the perfect result. Ideal for anyone who wants to combine art and nature.
