Art Course
with Claudia Hahn 10am – 5pm
Maximum Participants: 12
What to do when there is no paint at hand? Paint with what you have in your kitchen, such as tea, coffee and beetroot!
This course is designed to show that expensive art materials are not necessary to create wonderful art and to be creative in a fun way. You will paint flowers, animals or landscapes in colours you can source out of what you would normally drink or eat.
It is easy to forget that in the not too distant past, all dyes and paints had to be obtained from the natural world, directly from minerals and plants. The resulting colours may not be as bright or long lasting as those obtained from chemical sources, but they have a beauty and wonderful subtlety of their own.
