Duration: approx. 2 hours
Light on the water, variations of color, silences broken only by the movement of the landscape. Here, painting moves outdoors and becomes direct observation, where every element continuously changes.
Guided by Kristina Koro, an artist trained at the Repin Academy of Fine Arts in Saint Petersburg, you will work from life in one of the most evocative settings of Lake Como. After a brief introduction, you will begin to paint en plein air, tackling the basics of academic painting: composition, tone, color, and management of natural light. The experience is designed to guide you step-by-step, regardless of your starting level.
During the workshop, you will work with various techniques, from watercolor to acrylic and oil, developing a more attentive and conscious gaze. The focus is not only on the final result but on the process: observing, interpreting, and translating what you see into painting.
What makes this experience special
• A unique context, amidst the landscapes of Lake Como
• Guidance from an artist with Russian academic training
• A structured approach accessible to all levels
• Working from life, in direct contact with light and environment
• An intimate experience, in small groups
What you take home (besides your painting)
A new way of observing what surrounds you. And the tools to translate it into painting, with greater sensitivity and awareness.
