The aim of this course is to get acquainted with various drawing and painting materials, linked to various themes.

In the first few weeks we will work with ‘dry’ material, chalk, charcoal, pastel, and later the ‘wet’ variants, painting with ink and acrylics and mixed techniques. The topics will be diverse, e.g. landscape, model, portrait, interiors, still life and cityscapes. This course is for anyone who wants to paint, no prior knowledge required!

NB: There are two drawing & painting beginner courses. The Dutch spoken one is indicated with (NL) and the English spoken one is indicated with (EN). Make sure you enroll for the right language.

This course starts on Thursday 29 January 2026 at 15.30 and will be 10 weeks in a row on the same day and time. The course will take place in the Atelier in Usva.

Teacher: Ellis Veldstra
