About this class
Still life — a moment of peace and reflection, but still full of life! It is only quiet at first glance — because every still life has its own story and creative power. We use charcoal, graphite, pastel crayons and more. With every line, every painted shadow, you put your perception, your inner feeling on paper — not to depict reality exactly, but to rediscover it. There is room for your own paths, for playful experimentation and bold design. Regardless of whether you have previous experience or are trying out this type of painting again — all you need is openness to the creative process. Let yourself be surprised what is created!
