In Januari 2025 we will be launching a new group for painting lessons in English. Are you an expat, a student or a new arrival in the Netherlands, and would you like to learn how to paint? Or continue your favourite hobby that you started in your home country? Do you struggle with the Dutch language and wish you could take painting lessons in English? Well, look no further. You have found it! Now you can take up your painting hobby without struggling to understand the teacher. We are located in House of Colors Heerlen.

When Fine Art Atelier Inter-K started out a decade ago, there was this idea of teaching all sorts of people. After trying out different groups of different ages, the conclusion was, that it had to be narrowed down to what suited the teacher best. Nowadays a couple of painting groups are running successfully, and there is room for expansion. You can check it out on our Schilderles en workshops page. So an old wish is being put out into the world: teaching people from other countries and cultures. New painting lessons in English. After all, we poetically describe Atelier Inter-K as a nest for Birds of Paradise, as you can read in the following promotional text:

Creative cross pollination

You have a wish
The wish to experience art
And to see what others make

You have a need
The need to share experiences
with fellow travellers and makers

You have a dream
The dream to be part of
A group of art lovers
Who multiply their inspiration
By sharing it

I have a nest
A nest furnished with easels,
Canvases, paint and brushes
A fine sofa for the model
And a small coffee kitchen.
A nest in which we meet
To share what touches us.
A nest where we, through cross pollination,
Grow into Birds of Paradise.
