Imagine liberating your painting style and create stunning abstract landscape paintings you are proud of.
Does this ever happen to you?
You want to paint more abstractly and expressively but you’re not quite sure where to start.
You know what you love when you see it - but it’s hard to come up with ideas on your own.
You get stuck half way and end up going back to your old painting routine.
You feel you need concrete steps to know what to leave in or take out of your paintings.
For years I struggled to find the right balance between abstract and representational qualities in my work. I bought artbooks, loads of different art materials and took courses and workshops from some really great and well-known artists.
I worked extensively with watercolors, oils and acrylics and I learned a lot. And practiced a lot. But getting away from the tight and very realistic style of painting was so difficult and frustrating. I didn’t know how to free myself from adding too much detail and I felt I was wasting expensive art materials.
In fact, some days I felt like quitting painting all together!
Perhaps you've been devouring as much content as you can, trying to learn all the strategies, techniques, and secrets that lead to great paintings. That's great - to a point.
At some point more knowledge isn't enough.
After a few years something finally clicked and I took the best advice and knowledge from all the art books and workshops and made a simplified path through the jungle of art theory and art styles. And for the past 20 years I've been proud to call myself a full time artist and show my work in some really great galleries.
And for more than 15 years I’ve had the privilege of helping other painters find the joy and freedom of painting abstract and expressive paintings.
It might have taken me years to figure out but you can actually get started a lot faster than I did. That’s why I created the online painting course; Abstract Landscape Success.
Join us and let me show you a simpler and freer way to paint the paintings you were meant to paint.
Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll learn inside the course:
How to get that perfect balance of something that is recognizable yet abstract.
A step by step strategy to capture, compose and balance your painting.
Paint your favorite landscapes in a free, expressive way without rigid preliminary drawings.
How to start and finish your work and express your unique voice.
The roadmap to paint great abstract landscapes on your own.
Add more joy and confidence into your creative habit and feel proud of your paintings.
The training inside the course is relative to several months of in-person tuition, classes and workshops I teach.
You’ll get access to all the know-how and experience I have about painting abstract landscapes. All of this and at a fraction of the price of a real workshop which can easily run into thousands including travel and accommodation.
Instead I decided to package my knowledge into a course that anyone can follow, at home and at their own pace, to make it as accessible as possible.
Throughout the course, during the exercises and painting demonstrations I’ll gently guide you and explain what I’m doing. So you can see exactly how I’m doing it and why. No guesswork involved.
Including these great bonuses:
BONUS Class (€49 value)
An entire bonus class; Mountain Meadow at Sunset
BONUS Private Facebook group
During and after the course you have access to a private facebook group where you may share your work and discuss with other painters and course participants.

Everything you need to know: From how to start, what to focus on, how to choose your colors and how to get that perfect balance of something that is recognizable yet abstract.
And if you have always wanted to learn how to paint abstract landscapes from photographs, this course is for you.
Helma Swinkles wrote this about Abstract Landscape Success:
"Now I can actually paint real art and call it my own. Two years ago, during the in person classes I took, I was transferring images onto canvas or paper. Now I can feel what I am painting, and the end result comes from my inner self."
