Painting lessons

Five painting lessons for children from 8 to 11 years of age

The painting lessons are given in my own workshop at the maximum of two children. On request, the lessons can also be given at the children's own home.
A lesson will be about 1 ½ hour. After that we take some time to clean up and the wash the brushes.

If you come to me, you come to LEARN. That means it's no problem to make mistakes. You actually have to do some things wrong, because you can only learn from mistakes.
So, don't expect to go home every time with a beautiful painting. In the process we practice and exercise as much as possible. If you want, you can always continue at home to work on your painting.
I believe it is important to know and to realise this in advance.

For each lesson we can take a different subject.
This could be, 'holiday', 'disco', 'granddad', 'my dog' or whatever you like. If you know a subject you want to paint you may bring form home a photo or maybe an object as example.

Maybe you like to have a look in the library for the subjects you would like to do. Or maybe your parents will give you permission to look on the internet?

Price: in own workshop a €20,= (incl. materials) per session At your home, on request, according to travel expense and extra travel time.
