PAINTING TECHNIQUES
Two approaches of painting will be introduced:
You can explore the Mischtechnik and / or Indirect Oil Painting
The Mischtechnik
The Mischtechnik is a beautiful process of painting alternately with egg tempera and oil paint. White egg tempera is used to gradually build up tonal values. Then oil paint is applied in thin, semi-transparent glazes. The layers of egg tempera and oil glaze can be built on top of each other countless times, allowing for great dimensionality within the artwork. Beautiful effects of transparency, luminosity and detail can be achieved with this technique.
“This painting course has taken me a big step towards becoming braver in painting. The fear of making mistakes has moved very far into the background. Painting in a group is a lot of fun and it inspires you to continue painting at home.”
Renate, Austria
Indirect Oil Painting
Also the faster technique of indirect oil painting will be shown and explained to participants. Typically, the artwork is started with a monochromatic underpainting and more colors are introduced subsequently.
Both techniques can be applied within the same artwork.
“Vera brings out so many wonderful things that are hidden deep inside me.

She radiates so much love. All paintings become wonderful with her guidance.”
