Painting Course “Viva Lato”
Four sessions. Four techniques. And all the summer vibes.
This course is perfect for beginners and those with some painting experience.
Want to try painting but don’t know where to start?
How about trying them all?
Viva Lato is a summer experimental course where each class introduces a new technique, a new theme, and a new creative experience.
Watercolor, acrylic, oil, and texture paste — you’ll feel each material and discover which one speaks to you most.
It’s not about academic rules — it’s about joy, lightness, and creative freedom.
Just come and enjoy the process.

Marina Solovieva
I want to show you how much joy painting can bring — even if you’ve never held a brush before. I have an academic background, but I found true pleasure in the freedom and mixing of different styles.
In this course, we’ll explore four techniques — acrylic, oil, watercolor and textured materials. Each session is a new story: bold, bright and completely different from the last.
My goal is not to teach you “by the book”, but to help you open up, feel the materials and get inspired.
Join us — it will be vibrant, diverse and truly creative.
