Weekly Life Painting Classes

Learn to Draw and Paint from Life

Whether you are taking your very first steps in drawing and painting or are looking to deepen your artistic practice, these weekly classes offer a supportive and inspiring environment in which to grow.

Working from a live model, participants develop essential artistic skills such as observation, proportion, composition, light and shadow, value, colour and brushwork. Individual guidance is provided throughout the session, allowing each student to progress at their own pace and according to their own goals.

The emphasis is not only on technique, but also on learning to truly observe, developing confidence and enjoying the creative process.

Painting Retreats Workshops

A Creative Escape

Looking for more than just a painting course?

Our painting retreats combine artistic development with relaxation, beautiful surroundings and the pleasure of spending several days fully immersed in creativity.

Hosted in carefully selected locations in Belgium or France, these workshops offer the opportunity to step away from daily routines and dedicate yourself entirely to painting, learning and inspiration.

Imagine spending your days painting portraits in a picturesque setting, sharing ideas with fellow artists, enjoying good food, meaningful conversations and the simple pleasure of creating without distractions.

What You Will Learn

Depending on the theme of the workshop, topics may include:

  • Portrait drawing & figurative oil painting
  • Color mixing & subtle temperature control
  • Light, shadow & atmosphere
  • Classical composition & storytelling
  • Anatomy & proportion

All levels are welcome. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced painter, the focus is on individual growth, enjoyment and artistic discovery.

Small Groups, Personal Attention

Workshops are intentionally kept small to ensure personal guidance and a relaxed atmosphere. With limited places available, each participant receives ample individual feedback and support throughout the week.

These retreats are not only an opportunity to improve your painting skills, but also to recharge, connect with like-minded people and experience the joy of making art in beautiful surroundings.
