Sounding out interest in a watercolour workshop

Updates


I've always wanted to repeat the watercolour workshop I held ... four years ago (oh my!), and I'd like to ask around if anyone here would be interested?

Some details:

:bulletred: Where: :bulletred: In Aachen, Western Germany. We had some people from the Netherlands, England, even southern France last year, and several from Germany.

:bulletred: When: :bulletred: July, possibly August, one weekend (two days). My summer holidays are between mid-July and the end of August.

:bulletred: Who: :bulletred: people who'd like to learn to colour in watercolours. Mostly lineart based, though painting tips will be elemental. "Repeat offenders" from the last workshop are very welcome (a couple of you had already said you were interested).

:bulletred: Cost: :bulletred: Roughly 40 Euros for the workshop, plus accomodation and travel. The course would probably be held at the Youth Hostel again, so accomodation nearby is easy.

:bulletred: Language: :bulletred: Last time, I think I did the course in English most of the time, since that was what everyone spoke. I'd probably do that again, unless everyone speaks German.

So, let me know if you're interested (or very interested), so I'd have some idea whether it'll happen this year or not. I'd love to do this again. :)

Hi! Du, ich kündige mal meine unverbindliche Interesse an. Genau planen kann ich es jetzt noch nicht aber ich werde diesen Thread im Auge behalten. Ich wohne in Bielefeld. Mit meinem NRW-Ticket bin ich auch in Nullkommanix da.

Stimmt, das geht ganz gut. Ich war letztes jahr auf nem Workshop in Bielefeld - bist du schon mal bei Klaus Scherwinski gewesen?

Ich bin sicher interessiert! Hab' jetzt noch keine Ahnung ob dass für mich dann klappt mit Zeit/Geld aber ich brauch mich ja auch noch nicht direct an zu melden :) Ich denke schon dass ich kommen könnte. Aachen ist von hier ab (Leiden, Holland) ja ca 2,5 stunden autofahren. Hängt ganz von dem Geld ab; gehe nähmlich anfang August auch schon nach Berlin für den Europe-DevMeet.
Tolle Idee :D

Uiuiui...so ein Wochenendkurs mit der Erlaubnis zur Fantasy wär schon ne geile Abwechslung nach der ganzen Studiererei. Bin ein bisserl unsicher, was das Skill-level angeht - in welche Tiefen wird sich da denn vorgewagt? :)

Also, wir fangen extrem klein an. Null Vorkenntnisse sind wollkommen. Aquarell-Asse theoretisch auch, aber denen kann ich wohl nichts mehr beibringen ;)

Ich hätte dich sehr gerne dabei und würd dich gerne mal kennenlernen! :)

Muss sehen, wie das zeitlich und geldlich dann steht, aber Interesse wäre definitiv da

Definitely interested (so I'd finally learn how to use watercolours properly :D). My July and August are already pretty full, though, so I'd have to wait and see which weekend you choose. *crosses fingers*
