Slow creative Sunday mornings outside in a Dutch city, with sketchbook and watercolor
On these Sunday mornings we meet outdoors in a Dutch city or landscape to look, sketch and paint together. No heavy technique class, but permission to slow down, to see a city in a way you haven't before, and to play with paint and paper alongside a small group of curious people. I will guide you step by step how to capture your surroudings.
Feel free to join as many as you like! Every edition will be a different subject, so there is always something to learn.

Astrid
I’m an art teacher who can’t help but get excited when someone discovers the magic of making something with their own hands. Helping people tap into their creativity, try new techniques, and see what they’re capable of is what gets me out of bed in the morning.
I never travel without my watercolor sketchbook (sometimes even 5): and it has taken me to different corners of the world: from the fjords of Scandinavia to the Souks of Morocco and the colorful streets of Mexico. Sketching and painting helps me slow down, observe, and stay curious to the world around me. II’m adventurous, endlessly curious, and love sharing my passion for making with others.
