Who can enroll in our painting classes ?
Age :
Our painting classes are for adults over 16 year old, eager to learn how to paint like the old masters. The learning process requires patience and commitment.
Experience :
Whatever your level is, you will find at Atelier Baroque an attentive and thoughtful training approach to meet your expectations at best. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced painter, we will accompany you in your learning process.
Prerequisites :
Be motivated to paint and be willing to work to learn.
Rhythm :
Far apart from speed and abstraction, you enter here in a timeless space where materials such as pigments, rabbit skin glue, oils, pigments or resin are found. Time here is an ally, one more ingredient and not a stopwatch that forces you to go fast. The eulogy of slowness applies perfectly well to our approach of painting in general and learning in particular.
Environment :
Atelier Baroque is a place of sharing and work. A friendly and caring environment where teacher and students share a common passion: painting through the ages, the different currents and the multiple techniques.
Painting training approach
In our oil painting classes we introduce the students to the classic, traditional painting techniques that were commonly practised before the 20th century.
Personalized tutoring :
Painting classes are collective, but the tutorial approach is individual so that each student can discover the different painting techniques, in general, and work on the painting technique that interest him/her in particular.
Learning to paint :
Copying is not an aim in itself, but a pedagogical method to make accessible an ancestral painting know-how. Learning to paint by copying the paintings of Old Masters, was common practice in painting workshops from the Middle Ages until the early twentieth century. At Atelier Baroque, we have restored this practice which is queen in painting learning.
Experienced instructor :
Painting classes are conceived and tutored by Alexandra Astorquiza educational engineer, copyist at the Musée du Louvre and classical contemporary painter.
