General Information
Workshop Description:
Weather permitting, we will take advantage of the diverse opportunities offered by the beautiful location of Pöllau, its architecture, nature, and the expansive castle park with all its colorful splendor, to paint with oil colors like the Impressionists. For specific motivational requests and in case of bad weather, we can work from high-quality reference photos and a welcoming, splendid still life in the classroom.
Topics will include material knowledge, proper composition and layout of images, mixing colors, and a figurative implementation with individually varying levels of abstraction. Abstract acrylic paintings can be supplemented and expanded with figurative, realistic painting.
This small, fine course allows for many individual requests regarding the painting method, choice of subject, and the expressive form of each participant.
Here are photos from the Atelier Class 2025.
Please bring:
- Several reference photos in high resolution and very good color and subject quality (min. A4).
- At least 4 primed canvases (40 x 50, 50 x 60 cm depending on the desired subject, always 2 with the same dimensions).
