"For anyone pursuing ambitions in art it can be quite a challenge to develop a personal and distinctive style, to establish direct contact with one's work, a genuine connection.
 We organize creative art workshops with a strong focus on searching, experimenting, tearing down the usual boundaries and looking beyond, and this in a contemporary framework and a positive creative atmosphere. During this workshop we will digest a creative program to this concern, in which I will motivate you to explore, challenge your decisions, go through some helpful concepts of expressive drawing and show different ways of using oil paint and brushes.
  The workshops are oriented to adults who already have a certain artistic background, whether educational or autodidactic, and want to reach out further. If you've never drawn or painted before, or if you are only interested in traditional art, then this workshops is probably not for you."
