Weekend Painting Course
In Krkonoše, or in Prague
Come with us to put your worries aside and immerse yourself in painting for the whole weekend. Whether you go with us to the Krkonoše hills, stay in the studio in Prague, or take us to your favorite place, we know that you will have a great time painting on the weekend.
We prepare the program in such a way that you can paint and take home a finished picture on canvas within two days, or you can try as many techniques as possible and find out which one you enjoy the most. At the same time, we think of a friendly atmosphere and relaxation. Come and have fun with us and play with colors.
