Painting evenings
At my painting evenings (in Röthelheimpark in Erlangen), we paint simple, semi-abstract watercolor motifs together, inspired by landscapes and nature... in a relaxed, playful way, without any pressure to be perfect. In a small group, we try out different watercolor techniques, let the colors flow, and enjoy a short creative break. Each time, you take several small paintings home with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need any prior knowledge?
No, you don't need them. The course is suitable for beginners, those with some experience, and anyone who simply wants to enjoy painting with watercolors.
We will start together in the first hour with basic techniques, which provide a good foundation for beginners and a relaxed refresher for advanced students.
Do I need to bring any materials?
After registering, you'll receive a brief information sheet about materials. If you don't already own anything, you'll receive recommendations for good, beginner-friendly materials – without having to buy much.
What happens if I miss an appointment?
Each evening is self-contained. If you can't make it, that's of course a shame – however, the appointment cannot be rescheduled or refunded.
On the first evening, we will focus on the basic watercolor techniques, which will give you a good foundation for the following evenings.
Can I take the course multiple times?
Yes, absolutely! The designs change regularly, also to match the seasons.
In the first hour, we always refresh the basic techniques, but directly using small projects. So it never gets boring!
How big is the group?
Maximum 8 participants. This keeps the atmosphere relaxed and personal, and allows enough time for individual support.
What exactly are we painting?
Light, semi-abstract watercolor motifs – inspired by landscapes and nature. Motifs that are easy to create from the start and that you can take home with you immediately.

In the workshop of " Treffpunkt Röthelheimpark ", Schenkstraße 111, Erlangen.
