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!!! Love your work! I'm new here, and haven't posted anything yet . But I am interested in your workshop. Tell me, when will you know whether it'll be in July or August? It makes a lot of difference to me. So, I'm hoping it'll be mid August. So, whats the procedure? ;)
Keep up the good work :D

Right now, it looks like end of August - but I can't say anything final yet, as we might be moving house around that time :)

You're welcome! :)

The last time I did my workshop, I had around ten people, and I don't think it will be that much more than that this time around - a lot will drop out again once a date is set, as always... I'll update my journal with any information as soon as I know more. :)

Danke! Wir sind grade heftig in Planungswirren, weil wir eventuell im Sommer umziehen (in ein eigenens Haus), da besteht noch keine Klarheit, und solange kann ich natürlich auch meinen Workshop festlegen...

Dann heb ich auch mal die Pfote. ^^ Prinzipiell besteht Interesse. =D Ich muss nur warten, bis das Datum feststeht, um wirklich zusagen zu können, oder eben nicht. Evtl. bringe ich noch jemanden mit. (oder steht das Datum schon wo? oO )

Nein, noch nicht! Wir sind im Moment auf Haussuche (was sich auch eher spontan ergeben hat...), und ich kann hoffentlich in ein, zwei Wochen Näheres sagen.

Ich hätt dich gern wieder dabei. Wenn du glaubst, ich kann dir noch was beibringen. ;)
