Free and encouraged to create, while guided in structure and composition by Gilbert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With humor and professionalism, he teaches us to read paintings from all centuries. With him, it becomes a game shared with the other participants in the workshop. Always in a good mood, he moves from one to the next to check that our brains have assimilated the essential basics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With \"Structured rhythms\" and \"Rhythmic structures\", you add color palettes and, of course, the basics for a good pencil stroke, and you're all set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you sign up, you'll see that Alchimiste Gilbert can work miracles. After the first 10 classes, you'll be hooked! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It takes a move abroad to keep me from going back to the studio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you Gilbert for saving me from the blank canvas syndrome that overtook me in the summer of 2007 when I wanted to start painting in oils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, from now on, I'll have to get by without your kind glance over my shoulder. Everyone who's left, enjoy! You're very lucky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">Francine Birchler<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From 2008 to 2015, I regularly and assiduously attended L'Artquarium in Geneva.
