Description Courses
Painting course
The painting course is given by Lisette Meijrink, Dutch artist and qualified teacher.
We sit and paint in nature: Beautiful landscapes, old bridges, small villages or a nice detail. Under my guidance, you learn to look at the landscape in an original way. You learn more about colour, shape, perspective and atmosphere.
We focus on:
- Sketching technique and use of colour
- How to paint with oil paints
- Design painting
-Use of perspective
-Look at composition
You get all painting supplies for use, including paint, paper and chalk.

Lisette Meijrink
Here with so much nature and tranquility around me, I feel at home. Together with John I own a boulangerie boutique in Assignan where we work in the summer. In the winter we travel.
I have been painting for about thirty years. As a background I have done an artistic- and teacher-education.
What I would like is to share all the beauty that the area offers here with others. Giving a personal experience with a tangible memory that you and others will remember with pleasure and joy.
I hope you're looking forward to it!
