Beim Trocknen entstehen dadurch zuf\u00e4llige, sandige Strukturen auf dem Papier. Anschliessend werden die Bilder gef\u00f6hnt. Die Zuckerstruktur wird mit weisser Acryl- oder Wasserfarbe hervorgehoben und bleibt fest auf dem Papier. Salz und Couscous werden abgekratzt und hinterlassen darunter feine bis grobe Strukturen, die durch die Wasseraufnahme der K\u00f6rner entstehen.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dies ist nicht ein klassischer Event f\u00fcr ein bestimmtes Bild mit Schritt f\u00fcr Schritt Anweisungen. Stattdessen wird Janka diese Technik so erkl\u00e4ren, dass Sie sechs eigene Bilder auf Papier kreieren k\u00f6nnen und sich vor allem w\u00e4hrend diesem spielerischen Prozess inspirieren lassen k\u00f6nnen.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h4>Gut zu wissen:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Das Event ist f\u00fcr jeden geeignet \u2013 es werden keine Vorkenntnisse vorausgesetzt<\/li>\n<li>Alle Materialien werden von uns bereitgestellt und sind im Preis inbegriffen<\/li>\n<li>Am Schluss hast du<strong>\u00a0insgesamt 6 Kunstwerke (6x A5 Aquarell Papier)<\/strong>, die du mit einer Kartonschachtel direkt mit nach Hause nehmen kannst.<\/li>\n<li>Zus\u00e4tzliches Material kann vor Ort bezogen werden<\/li>\n<li>Material: Aquarelle auf Papier, Salz, Couscous &amp; Zucker<\/li>\n<li>Das Event wird auf Deutsch und Englisch geleitet.<\/li>\n<li>Eventdauer: ca. 2.5h<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Bitte beachte, dass wir dieses Event nur durchf\u00fchren, wenn sich mindestens 4 Personen sp\u00e4testens 72h vor dem Event online angemeldet haben.

As the paint dries, this creates random, sandy textures on the paper. The paintings are then dried with a hairdryer. The sugar texture is highlighted with white acrylic or watercolor and remains firmly attached to the paper. The salt and couscous are scraped off, revealing fine to coarse textures created by how the grains absorbed water from the paint.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is not a classical event for a specific painting with step-by-step instructions. Instead, Janka will explain to you this technique that you can create six of your own paintings on paper and get inspired during this playful process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h4>Good to know:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>No prior Painting experience necessary<\/li>\n<li>All Painting Materials Provided and Included in the Ticket Price.<\/li>\n<li>At the end you will have <strong>6\u00a0artworks\u00a0(6x A5 on aquarelle paper)<\/strong> which you can take home in a cardboard box right away.<\/li>\n<li>Material: Aquarelles on paper, salt, couscous and sugar<\/li>\n<li>Additional material available on request<\/li>\n<li>Language of Instruction: German and English<i class=\"fa fa-paint-brush\"><\/i><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Please note: This Event will only take place if at least 4 people signed up online 72hrs before the event.
