Hangar Café Culture with Valentine

 



Not a lot of you were able to attend the latest Café Culture, with our youngest and newest  'Mixed Media' teacher Valentine. unfortunately, because she gave an enthusiastic and vibrant talk about her creative experiences in life, through travel, adventure and serendipity. Which then led to an impressive production of  Murals in countries like India and Nepal, but also to other brilliant artworks. 
The attendees thoroughly enjoyed it all and I do hope Valentine is willing to do another version later in the year! She used time-lapse videos to take us with her in her mural-painting world, and showed the creation of big canvases with beautiful animals. One word - OK, three: worth every minute. You missed something! Here are the pictures:

February 10th, Mixed Media Class with Valentine Costes

Friday mornings 9:30am to 12pm

 


Today we did a "Musical Painting Class", by listening to different music we have different emotions, feelings, thoughts going on... our painting is changing depending on the rhythm and energy of the music... helps also to get more easily to our right brain, in the creative process.

 

There are many different techniques as inks or spray paint that let ourselves be more random with our paintings. It's also quite interesting to observe ourselves during the process because painting is a wonderful reflection of our current state of mind..!

 

We definitely felt, more than ever, how important it was to do a right brain exercise at the beginning of each class!


 
With this exercise it's also a nice way to learn new techniques and be more creative, without having something in mind and just let ourselves enjoy the process of creating!

 

To participate in the next Musical Painting sessions & Mixed Media Classes, email me to :

I will add you to the WhatsApp group to have all the info for each class.
