<h3>CONTEMPORARY ABSTRACT PAINTING WORKSHOP - FIRST EDITION</h3> UPDATE: Tickets are sold out for this Workshop, and as abstract painting is such a broad theme, I decided to do 2 editions of this workshop instead of 1. This creates a more chill environment with more focus on personal guidance and experiment. The Workshops are not identical, some aspects will be the same, but the activities in the workshop will be different.To get the most out of this abstract painting course I would advice to attend both editions. But attending only one of them is also fine!When you attend both editions, I would advice you to keep painting at home in between the workshops, and bring your paintings to the second workshop, so we can discuss them in the group or personally. It isn't necissery to attend the first edition to join the second edition! (and the other way around):)<a href="https://www.eventbrite.nl/e/844097868447?aff=oddtdtcreator" title="https://www.eventbrite.nl/e/844097868447?aff=oddtdtcreator" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Eventpage for the Second edition of this Workshop on Saturday 16-3-2024</a> (Still a few tickets left!)And I'm offering an extra 3 weeks contemporary painting course every thursday evening from March 14th-28th! This course is in my personal studio so this will be a more intimate setting, focussed on personal guidance, max. 5 participants. This provides a broader view into the diverse contemporary painting styles and techniques, such as figurative-, abstract painting, murals, and acrylic- and watercolor paint etc. And offers a special aspect focussed on the business aspect of being a professional artist, the use of social media and the shifting dynamics between the online/offline galeries.

(Re)discovering the joy in painting as an act itself that harks back to childhood's unbridled creativity. In my opinion there is no bad art, only fear and the idea of not being good enough often prevents people from using their talents and having the courage to express themself without thinking about the possible judgement of others.Which is unfortunate, because most people never even think about trying out to start painting again and the idea of creating art. <ul><li>We will start the workshop by experimenting with paint and materials in a childlike way, free yourself from negative thought patterns which block your creativity.</li><li>At the beginning of the workshop we will start with a short meditation to clean the mind and try to sub stain this mindset through this way of painting. This workshop is trying to free the mind from the pressures and expectations of perfection and success, where fear and doubt are left at the door, allowing your creativity to soar freely. Of course, you'll probably want to go home with an aesthetically appealing painting, which is one of the criteria which can't be ignored in art. But I want you to explore by yourself what your perception or idea of beauty is, and see how subjective this is, how different this can be per person, and that this is part of the beauty in art.</li><li>By discovering and exploring our own preferences and style, (and of course with the help of my guidance)you are able to come home with a beautiful new abstract painting. This is the fastest and purest way to learn how to create from a state of unique, pure, personal expression and creativity. </li><li>By discussing the paintings at different stages with the whole group, sometimes helps us to start to see the beauty in our own creations, and learn you how to be more conscious of aspects in the painting most people see as a lucky mistake. </li><li>Abstract Art is also an interesting topic to discuss in a group, because our minds are programmed in a way to try to understand images, and look for familiar reference points in a figurative way, resembling elements from our reality, which isn't necessarily a focus in abstract art. I find this interesting and important to discuss this because people often create abstract art with a certain idea derived from reality, and it's enlightening to make them aware that others may interpret their work in a completely different way. And whether this matters to them, especially when trying to convey a specific concept, vision, or emotion. It's crucial to consider whether it's important for the viewer to receive the intended message. </li><li>We also explore how titles can significantly aid in guiding the viewer towards a certain interpretation. </li><li>With the use of professional-grade materials, you'll learn how to craft abstract masterpieces that could easily find their place in the "Contemporary Art World", offering vibrancy, depth, and a professional sheen that's distinctly yours. </li><li>Painting techniques are actually still used by professional artists in almost all painting styles, in our times, there are so many different styles in painting, even "ugly painting" is actually a painting style in Contemporary Art which comes with it's own techniques and tricks. This workshop is for both beginners as experienced painters/artists, but the way I teach you how to paint is not in an amateur way like most painting courses are.</li></ul>More than a lesson in painting, this workshop is an invitation to change your perspective on art. It's about embracing the process over the product, where the act of creation itself is the real masterpiece.You'll finish not just with a canvas that reflects your newfound skills and freedom but also with the understanding that professional-quality art can be created by your own hands—saving you a fortune on those gallery pieces you once coveted (wink, wink ;) :P)Step into a world where creativity knows no bounds, and every stroke of the brush brings you closer to the artist you were always meant to be.Join us for an inspiring experience of learning, expression, and playfulness. Remember, Art is for everyone, and it's never too late to start your creative journey! :) NL/DUTCH: (Her)ontdek jouw creativiteit in deze vernieuwende schilder-workshop, gericht op Hedendaagse Abstracte Kunst. Anders dan de meeste schilderworshops, waar het meestal draait om realistisch figuratief schilderen, met vaak (naakt)model als voorbeeld. Is deze workshop meer gericht op de hedendaagse schilderkunst, en geeft je de mogelijkheid te experimenteren met de materialen om zo je eigen voorkeur en stijl te ontdekken.Het doel is om je plezier te (her)vinden in het maken, als de activiteit op zichzelf, door proberen zo min mogelijk te focussen op het eindresultaat. En alle onzekerheid, (faal)angst, opzij te durven zetten, en door middel van op een kinderlijke manier verschillende soorten stijlen in abstracte kunst uit te proberen.Al gaat het niet om het eindproduct, worden je wel verschillende technieken voorgedaan die aansluiten en gebruikt worden in verschillende stijlen in Hedendaagse Abstracte Kunst. Ook leer je zelf een canvas in elkaar te zetten, en het doek erop te stretchen. En leer je andere tips &amp; tricks die eigenlijk alleen professionele schilders weten en gebruik van maken. Zoals een klein ogend verschil, door gebruik te maken van grote, brede kwasten, die bijna alle professionele schilders gebruiken, al helemaal bij het maken van een Abstract Schilderij. Je zult versteld zijn door het verschil iets als het gebruiken van een ander formaat kwast kan hebben op de uitkomst van een schilderij! Dit is je kans om te leren hoe je kunstwerken creëert op een professionele wijze, terwijl de focus ligt op plezier hebben in het maakproces en het experiment, in plaats van op de uitkomst van je schilderij . Perfect voor iedereen die de vreugde van kunst maken opnieuw wil ontdekken, zonder de druk van perfectie. Kunst is voor iedereen, en het is nooit te laat om te beginnen! Ook is er de mogelijkheid een fortuin te besparen in de toekomst wanneer je voortaan zelf je witte muren in huis kunt (op)vullen! ;) <ul><li>Located at T.T. Neveritaweg, our venue provides a serene and inspiring environment for you to let your imagination run wild. Connect with fellow art enthusiasts, exchange ideas, and gain valuable insights into the world of contemporary abstract painting.</li></ul>Don't miss this opportunity to create stunning works of art and discover the joy of abstract painting. Reserve your spot now and get ready for a memorable artistic experience at the Contemporary Abstract Painting Workshop at Treehouse NDSM.
