The course offered a maximum range of theory and practice for various artistic ambitions: Perspective, portraiture, urban sketching and more. You could devote yourself to your preferences and try out new things. The lecturer supported and encouraged everyone individually, regardless of their level. Her art therapy training also provided an excellent background for the group dynamics.
