WORKSHOP Description
When creating a painting that has impact and captivates the viewer, it is important to master the tools you can use to manipulate how the viewer’s eye moves across the canvas.
You will become a master manipulator in the best sense! You will learn all of Manon’s little secrets about how to use color and its properties, compositional elements, edges, texture, and brushwork to keep the viewer entertained by your painting for as long as possible.
During the first session we will address all those things which Manon will also demo in real time, so you can ask questions.
Then it’s your turn: You will be expected to create a painting during the week which will be included in an in-depth critique during the second session. These hands-on critiques always provide a lot of lightbulb moments!

Instructor Bio
No matter where I go, I find beauty in the light and its shifting, shimmering spectrum of colors. A strong believer in finding joy in the little things in life, I seek to capture and share the moments that give me the most happiness, that evoke the rawest of uplifting emotions human nature has to offer. Manifesting these twinkles of delight in a contemporary impressionistic painting style is my way to bring attention to the beauty found everywhere in our immediate surroundings, seen by those who slow down to look and notice.I find inspiration for my next painting not necessarily in an object considered beautiful in the conventional sense: My desire to paint is mostly ignited by watching the effects of light. Illuminating something in all its brilliance through luminous colors and interesting designs, light has the power to elevate an object from the mundane to the exquisite. How light influences color, the mood, and the energy of a scene has been a source of endless fascination for me.
Expressing my joie de vivre through loose brushstrokes in combination with a well thought-through design and vibrant color choices translate into a painting that resonates not only with me as an artist but also with the viewers, offering them a view of things that might otherwise have gone unnoticed and connecting them to feelings possibly forgotten.
