ArtNight Kids: Weihnachtsbaum

In the organizer's words:

What awaits you

Are you ready for a creative adventure? ArtNight Kids is the perfect opportunity to discover your artistic skills together with your children. Under the guidance of our experienced artists, you will get creative together and bring your own works of art to the canvas. You will inspire each other and discover a world full of fantasy and new perspectives together.

With the "Tree of Life - Christmas Tree" you will learn the basics of painting and paint your very own Christmas tree. With bright colors and golden accents, together we will conjure up a unique Christmas tree that reflects the magic of the holidays.

Instructions:

Adults and children paint side by side, each on their own canvas. Therefore, there is a minimum booking of 2 tickets. Please note that at least one adult must attend.

For event on site: Everything needed for ArtNight Kids will be provided by the host, including canvas, paints, brushes and aprons. However, we recommend wearing comfortable clothes that can get dirty as painting can sometimes get messy and acrylic paint sticks to textiles.

What you will learn

Acrylic:

Acrylic paint is a real all-rounder! When applied thinly, it can be used to create watercolor effects; when applied thickly, it gives a high color intensity. It can be diluted with water, dries quickly, is odorless and waterproof when dry.

Wet-on-wet:

The wet-on-wet technique involves working quickly and directly on the paint that has just been applied and is still wet, or spreading it with another layer of paint. It can be used to create beautiful organic and soft color transitions.

Glazing:

The glazing technique, or glazing paint application, is all about thinning the paint and the right timing. The aim is to create delicate (glazing), translucent layers of paint that do not cover. Although we do not work with glaze paint, we can achieve very similar effects with acrylic paint.

Pastos:

The pastose application of paint, also known as the impasto technique, can usually be recognized by the relief-like application of the paint. It is a paint application that you can often not only see, but even feel. The aim of this technique is to apply the paint as thickly and opaquely as possible.

Sprinkling (spray technique):

Sprinkling is a form of abstract art in which paint is dripped, sprinkled, sprayed or poured onto the canvas. It is an expressive, spontaneous, abstract painting technique that creates an expressive and dynamic pictorial effect.
