Crete

The Southwest of Crete provides breathtaking scenery, alternating between beaches and rugged mountain rages, shady groves of pine trees and blossoming plaints. Inspired by the variety of motifs and relaxed by the tranquillity, there is a lot of scope for attentive observation and working.

Program

Aim is to catch essential impression of the landscape and to develop an own expression. Nature- and detail studies deliver the impulses for a transmission to abstraction and reduction. Complementary interaction of colours, lines, rhythms and structures are themes, with which we are concerned in the nature as well as by the free translation. Various techniques such as  watercolours, chalk, acrylic and pigments are inserted for this.

The instruction times amount approx. 5 hours a day with a longer lunch time,  painting excursion is planned to Loutro after agreement (shared costs 15 Euro).

The hotel with approx.40 rooms is run by a Creatan family and treats you with  a typical Greek cuisine. Surrounded by olive trees and three bays that remain unaffected by mass tourism, the tranquillity of a still unspoiled landscape prevails.

Materials to bring along

watercolour-box, watercolourpad ,brushes of your  choice, chalks, pencils, watertank, gouache-white, People which like working  with acrylic do need acryliccolours, canvas (not framed), or acrylicpapers.
