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. :)

I am really really interested, and depending on flight/train rates, I think I could really afford to come. As soon as you decide on a weekend I can tell if it's something I can really do (I so hope it is!)

I'd love to have you! I just stopped by your gallery; you certainly have a lot of very nice watercolours there already. Just as long as you think I can still teach you something. ;)

Hey cool, ich hätte dich gern dabei! Aquarell würde zu deinen Sachen sicher gut passen!

Das kann ich mir auch vorstellen. In erster Linie würde ich aber gerne von der Meisterin lernen ;)

Bist du eigentlich auch in Erlangen beim Comic Salon?

Nee, Erlangen lasse ich immer aus - Essen ist einfach näher...

Stimmt... aber schade, dass du nicht da bist :(

Aber ich hab auch ein paar Leute organisiert: Wir fahren zu fünft im Galaxy und teilen uns die Spritkosten. Vielleicht ja in 2 Jahren, wenn du Lust hast :)

Lust ist kein Ding! Das Problem ist immer, dass ich bei solchen Wochenend-Veranstaltungen immer meinem Mann die Kinder aufs Auge drücken muss, aber die werden ja auch älter...

...das mit dem Älterwerden ist unaufhaltsam :chew:

Ah, in zwei Jahren sieht die Welt ja auch schon wieder ganz anders aus, mal sehen ob die Gang, die ich jetzt dabei hab, dann überhaupt noch besteht :)
