Drawing Camp (Grundkurs Zeichnen) actually: Your Monday Drawing Workout (DE/EN)18:15 - 19:45 8.12.2025 - 2.2.2026

(DE) Dieser Kurs richtet sich an Anfänger, aber auch an schon erfahrene Aktzeichnende. 

Während einer Session werden die wöchentlich wechselnden Modelle kurze und längere Posen einnehmen. So kann das Auge geübt werden, Bewegung und Form zu erkennen, Teilnehmende finden aber auch genug Zeit, das Modell genauer zu studieren.  

Außerdem wird jede Woche in einem kleinen Exkurs auf unterschiedliche Aspekte des figürlichen Zeichnens eingegangen – seien es anatomische Fragestellungen, die Lichtführung oder der Aufbau der menschlichen Figur. 

Die Teilnehmenden können jederzeit ein- oder aussteigen und pausieren: Die einzelnen Sessions bauen nicht aufeinander auf.

Geleitet wird der Kurs von Thorsten Gehrmann, der Euch mit seinen langjährigen Erfahrungen als Zeichenlehrer gerne unterstützt!

• Die Teilnehmerzahl ist begrenzt.

• Bringt gerne Eure eigenen Zeichenmaterialien: Bleistifte, Spitzer, Radiergummi, Papier.

• Buchung: €22 pro Termin oder NEU: 99€ 5er-Karte(3 Monate gültig). Termine können einzeln oder in Serie gebucht werden per E-Mail an mail@kunstraum-heartspace.de unter Angabe der gewünschten Daten.

(EN) This course is aimed at beginners as well as experienced life drawing artists.

During a session, the models, which change weekly, will take short and long poses. This allows your eye to train in recognising movement and form, while also giving you enough time to study the model more closely.

In addition, each week will include a short excursion into different aspects of figurative drawing – be it anatomical issues, lighting, or the structure of the human figure.

Participants can join, drop out, or pause at any time: the individual sessions do not build on one another.

The course is led by Thorsten Gehrmann, who will be happy to support you with his many years of experience as a drawing teacher!

• The number of participants is limited.

• Please bring your own drawing materials: pencils, sharpeners, erasers, paper.

• Booking: €22 per session or NEW: €99 / 5 sessions package(valid for 3 months). Sessions can be booked in series or individually by emailing mail@kunstraum-heartspace.de, stating the desired dates.

Get familiar with the main principles of painting perspective with acrylics... and explore your style!

This class will focus on perspective and learning how to create the illusion of 3D space on a canvas. 

We will be using the same reference image that we will transform into a painting.

In the course of painting, your teacher Stela will navigate each individual separately, providing as much direction as necessary, and leaving space for self-exploration. She will give tips on how to create your palette, mix colours, create texture, and in the meantime, share know-hows she has learned throughout the years.

After we finish with our works, we will do a group discussion on the paintings together and share our experience.

The aim of this class is to explore our creativity and immerse in the process while learning what lies behind creating a realistic painting. 

• For whom? The class is suitable for full beginners or experienced individuals; guidance will be adjusted accordingly.

• Materials: All the materials are included.

• Participation Fee: €40

This workshop is aimed at anyone who wishes to explore realistic pencil portrait drawing from photographic references through a structured method, and wants to learn or refine pencil hatching and shading techniques.

The workshop is designed for a small group, allowing a flexible and supportive approach, adapting to each participant’s level: from guiding beginners to helping experienced artists tackle their personal creative challenges. Without the pressure of achieving a final result, we will immerse ourselves in learning the method and enjoying the creative process.

You will train the ability to truly observe a face, and the practical tools to translate it effectively into an authentic, realistic portrait.

What we’ll do... step by step:
We’ll combine theory and practice.

• Practice targeted observation to select the best reference photo

• Use the grid method for accurate proportions and create a preliminary sketch

• Understand the differences between pencils of various hardness and get familiar with the materials we’ll use

• Master shading (the real magic!) with hatching techniques to shape volume and depth

• Train your observational skills to recognize different tonal values

• Explore changing perspectives to refresh your vision

• Discuss common mistakes and learn how to avoid them

• Participate in an open Q&A, receive personalized tips, and get feedback throughout the process

• Learn how to preserve and protect your finished portrait

Breaks and Refreshments
While drawing, we’ll enjoy some tea. Between the first and second parts of the workshop, we’ll take a relaxing 30-minute break, as drawing can be quite intense. It’ll be the perfect moment to connect, share a cup of coffee, and savor a slice of cake together. And since it’s the pre-festive season, this time the cake will be Italian panettone, to add a touch of pre-Christmas cheer!

Location
The workshop takes place here at Kunstraum Heartspace, a bright and inspiring shared studio. It’s welcoming and filled with creative energy.
