Monday from 10:00-12:30 h

Teachers
Lyda Bekker Robbert Kiewiet

For whom  
There is no experience required for this course, only a dose of enthusiasm. 

Content 
This course is divided into 2 blocks of 4 lessons. Each block has its own teacher with her own expertise.
Lesson dates: 21 Feb | 7, 14, 21 & 28 March | 4, 11 & 25 April

The first 4 lessons, (teacher: Robbert Kiewiet), you learn the basic techniques of the Old Masters. Works of art by Old Masters such as Rembrandt are the source of inspiration. In the lesson you will work with basic techniques such as tonality, perspective and composition. In the last lesson you will transform your own photo into a real Old Master drawing. We keep the material simple with pencil and eraser.

The last 4 lessons, (teacher: Lyda Bekker), we focus on painting with acrylic paint. Acrylic paint is that dries quickly which makes this paint particularly suitable for painting in layers, resulting in form and depth. We will discuss the different assignments individually as well as in groups, so you can learn from each other's work.

Ultimately, these 8 lessons provide a good basis for both technical handles and the development of your own handwriting.
