    Gerard Wagner called a modern path of painting a “feeling training”.  With this in mind we will focus on painting exercises which challenge our ability to perceive and feel colour. 
 We will attempt to bring to consciousness the feelings which colours create in us.

       This workshop will focus on colour-balancing as a healing and educational tool through painting.
Motifs like Sun and Moon and the blossoming and withering forces in nature show
 a polarity of creative forces and colour moods which we will explore in watercolour painting.

Caroline Chanter is a painter and teacher at the Goethanum Painting School in Dornach, Switzerland. Before leaving England to settle in Switzerland in 1993 she taught painting and painting therapy at Tobias School of Art and Therapy in East Grinstead, Sussex and was a painting therapist at the Anthroposophical Medical Practice in Forest Row, Sussex. She was a student of the painter Gerard Wagner from whom she learned the importance of Rudolf Steiner’s training sketches for a new approach to painting and to art therapy. These so-called “sketches” hold the key to the mystery of how form comes out of the colour.

we participate in that soul when we experience colour.”
