4 Lessons (4 weeks) customized for your project. Each lesson will be sent per e-mail in PDF-Format. To read our PDF-Documents you have to

reference CD with step by step instructions of the most common Bauernmalerei flowers and patterns.

During the working process you will be able to send me pictures of your progress. As needed you will receive suggestions and tips 

on how to make any changes or improvements as we go along.  

You have time to finish your project within 4 weeks, if you would like to complete it sooner – 

just let me know and I will adjust to your pace (if there is any 

problem with my working schedule I will let you know in advance).  

A material list will be sent at the beginning of the workshop – you will also need a digital camera and scanner/printer so we will 

be able to exchange feedback.

TIP: When you take the pictures please make sure they are focused and clear. Make picture without flash, as daylight or good lighting will make the best pictures.

        A few close ups can be a big help – especially later on when it comes to the floral paintings – of course, if you have already practiced the flowers on a drawing paper 

you will be able to scan your paintings and send it to me for feedback.

When I work with old furniture how do they need to be prepared?

              If paint or lacquer is already peeling off, it needs to be stripped. Any broken moldings etc. need to be fixed before we start the workshop. If paint is still good and has 

only small paint cracks, wrinkles etc. this is ok – we can already use that surface for antiquing.
