Watercolour painting in Hermann Hesse’s trails


Thursday 15 Saturday 17 August 2024 · Collina d’Oro


Every path leads home, every step is birth […] (Hermann Hesse, from the collection The seasons of Life). In this watercolor course with the artist Lisa Kölbl-Thiele, the basics of watercolor painting will be taught and practiced. After a brief introduction to the technique, participants will be given the opportunity to create simple motifs.

Paths and trails, the Leitmotiv of this course, are present in the Ticino landscape in various contexts, whether as streets and alleys in the towns or as hiking trails and paths in nature. In this course, we will follow various paths and enjoy the diversity of the motif.


The course is open to beginners and advanced students: No experience is required.
In German and Italian, 7-12 participants.
