Munich Art Community

It will get sunny this Saturday, so it will be perfect for heading out, drawing and having a lovely picnic! :)

Everyone brings a proverb/idiom from their culture, childhood, or mother tongue to share with the group.

The proverb should be something meaningful from your cultural background - those wise sayings your grandparents repeated, like "still waters run deep," the expressions you grew up hearing in your family's language, or phrases that carry the wisdom of your heritage. We'd love to see how "it's raining cats and dogs" might look on paper, or how you'd illustrate that special saying only locals from your hometown would understand!✨

Everyone is welcome! We're always a lovely mix of experienced artists and complete beginners.

Please bring

• Your sketchbook or paper (Minimum A5!)
• Your special proverb 💬✒️🎨
• Drawing materials of your choice
• A blanket or something to sit on
• Some food to share (finger food is the easiest to share ;) ) and something to drink

Are you interested in art? Don't like to draw on your own? Or do you want to meet like-minded people?
Whether you are a beginner or a professional - all levels are welcome!

Keep in mind, every artist starts with "ugly" drawings, it's the practice and learning that makes them better. You don't need any fancy equipment to get started, just bring pencil/pen and paper. So don't be afraid to come if you think you "can't draw". This is a great opportunity to start!

The main goal of this event is to have fun while being creative and to meet people who enjoy art.

What we'll do:
Most people enjoy doing portraits, but what you do will be totally up to you. Some examples:

• Portrait/Figure drawing: we will take turns drawing each other for 10 Minutes.
• Prompts: random words/sentences to spark your imagination
• Blind Contour: draw something without looking or lifting your pen
• Landscape: draw the landscape around you or do some nature studies
• Free drawing: do whatever you like. Maybe some abstract painting or you want to try out a new medium
• Feedback: if you want feedback on your art, feel free to share it with us
• Chatting: if you just want to chill out and chat a bit, that is fine too

If you have something else on your mind feel free to share it, maybe other people like to do it as well

You can come/leave at any time. There aren't really any rules, just to have fun and be polite to others :)

Please bring:

• A sketchbook/paper
• A pencil or the medium you prefer
• Something to drink and eat, depending on how long you want to stay
• A blanket or something else to sit on

How to find the Meetup:
I will arrive ~15 minutes early and wait in front of the entrance

Language
Since there are often people from other countries, the main language will be English, but you are free to practice your German as well.

I'm looking forward to meet and draw with you! :)
