🌱 Seasonal Atelier – Children (8 weeks)
“Growing & Making – Art in Nature”
In this course, we work with what grows, moves, and changes throughout the season. We spend time outdoors, gather natural materials, and translate what we see into drawing, painting, and making.
We explore:
- careful observation (plants, flowers, shapes, textures)
- free sketching and experimentation
- working with watercolor and simple drawing techniques
- making with natural materials
- Listening to your imagination
Some moments are focused and attentive, others more playful and intuitive.
🌿 A gentle balance between structure and freedom, technique and imagination.
1250 kr, including material

🌿 Seasonal Atelier – Adults (6 weeks)
“Slow Drawing & Nature Evenings”
A calm evening space to slow down, observe, and create.
We sometimes begin outdoors, tuning into the light and the season through short walks or simple observation exercises. From there, we continue working with drawing, watercolor, and other accessible techniques—indoors or outside.
We combine:
- observing the natural world (plants, light, detail)
- meditative and slow making
- sketching, watercolor, collage
- moments of reflection and quiet
No experience is needed—just a willingness to slow down and explore through making.

The place
The courses take place in a beautiful old renovated house in Loshult. There is a comfortable veranda where you can relax and have a coffee while your kid is being creative. There are also some nice forest walks if you feel like going for a run or walk. Ofcourse you can also drop your kid off and come back an hour later.
