Create marshland landscapes in watercolor — inspired by Emil Nolde

Get inspired by Emil Nolde's marshland landscapes and explore the possibilities of watercolor at a creative workshop in the Nolde Museum Seebüll. Experience colors, lights and horizons in a unique artistic community.

Take part in an inspiring 3-hour watercolour workshop in the Nolde Museum Seebüll, where we will be fascinated by Emil Nolde's characteristic marshland landscapes. Under expert guidance, we work with motifs from the marshland — a landscape with which Nolde himself moved and felt deeply connected.

The focus is on the interaction between sky, earth and sea, on mirroring, color compositions and the horizon line that gives the landscape tranquility and balance. Through experiments with liquid watercolor and crayon on different types of paper, you will have the opportunity to explore both techniques and your own artistic expression.

In a small group, a present and engaging atmosphere is created, where there is room for contemplation and individual guidance. Whether you are a beginner or experienced, here you will have the opportunity to develop your skills and experience the joy of working with colors in inspiring environments.
