The watercolour course includes:
During this watercolour weekend at Storhogna, participants can immerse themselves in the art of creating with water-based colours in a tube. A watercolour weekend that not only provides new skills but also wonderful mountain memories. This is an undemanding course on your terms where we work to simplify painting and "trick the brain". We'll be inspired by the environment around the hotel and there will certainly be a lot of nature painting. Doesn't that sound exciting? If you also feel that you need to take a little break, that's fine.
We know that this weekend will provide you with so many great tips and tricks and that it is a great inspiration for future artistic adventures.
