Art workshop for adults and seniors / integration and intergenerational programme: Portrait, Light and Expression

In this series of workshops inspired by Jaroslav Čermák’s work, we will explore selected classical techniques of drawing, painting and printmaking, applying them to studies of portraiture, drapery, animals, landscapes, still lifes and details within paintings.

The Portrait, Light and Expression workshop will draw on Čermák’s portrait work and focus on depicting a person or an animal in paint. We will observe characteristic features, proportions and expression. Participants will experiment with different painting techniques, exploring how to convey a subject’s expression and character and create atmosphere in a portrait. We will work with watercolour, gouache or acrylic paint. Selected works by the artist will serve as inspiration.

This programme is designed not only for adults and seniors, but also for their children and grandchildren as part of an intergenerational encounter. The workshops are also open to foreign visitors.
