SUMMARY:Working with the Four Elements in Nature: Veil Painting Course
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nThe basis of artistic creation is not what is\,\nbut what might be; not the real\, but the possible. \n\nRudolf Steiner\, in The Aesthetics of Goethe’s Worldview \n  \nThis online course uses the gestures of the material states of solid\, fluid\, gas\, and heat (earth\, water\, air and warmth) to explore the hidden forces of Nature\, and how they reveal themselves through the gestures and patterns through Nature’s imprint on the physical world around and in us. \nWhat will I learn? \nThe course is an opportunity to develop your veil painting skills through developing brush mastery and enlivened perception of the world in and around us. After working with each different element\, participants will create an artwork with a nature theme\, bringing all four gestures together in one artwork. \nEach element has a different gesture that characterises the phenomenal world of the etheric or life world. These gestures provide variations in veiling approaches that go beyond being mere ‘outer’ techniques and point to how the task of the artist is not to paint the visible\, but reveal the invisible. \nWe use watercolour wet-on-dry painting\, the preferred technique of any anthroposophic painting training. It is not an easy skill to develop but very satisfying to master. \nYou can read more about the anthroposophic approach and why we prefer watercolour over acrylics and oils in this short article. \nWho is it for? \n\nFor anyone interested in learning the wet-on-dry watercolour technique.\nFor artists\, art therapists and Steiner (Waldorf) teachers who want to deepen their understanding of colour (PD certificates available if requirements are met).\n\nWhen is it? \n3.00pm-5.00pm AEST fortnightly on Saturdays\n7 June- 2 August 2025 \nCost \n$240 AUD/$160 USD\n$250 for PD certificate\nVideo recordings included in the fee\, available for private study. \n \n\nBOOK HERE\n\nThe payment options\, Zoom link\, and a list of materials will be sent to you after booking. \nFor more information \nThis course also a core component of Art as a Path of Schooling for the Soul. It provides the beginnings of a sound foundation in the anthroposophic (Steiner) approach to colour and painting. \n\nContact\n\n \n \nPhoto credit: Sunlit Tree By A Waterfall\, I © Fiona Campbell\n \n

SUMMARY:Working with Counter Images & Contradictions in the Soul
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nThe first step (in developing spiritual senses and organs of activity) is to direct the soul’s attention toward certain processes in the world around us. \nThese processes are life. \n  \nRudolf Steiner\, in How To Know Higher Worlds \n  \nImaginative exercises based on the preparatory exercises given by Steiner in How to Know Higher Worlds\, using painting\, drawing and meditation exercises. \nThis online course provides an artistic entry into his preparatory exercises for the development of spiritual faculties.working with polarities and the counter images of sunrise and moonrise\, growing plant and dying plant. This is a path for the schooling of the soul for higher development and it uses two motifs from Steiner’s Nine Training Sketches for the Artist to guide us on this path.  \nThrough exploration of counter-images and seeming contradictions of polarities\, we can strengthen both our imaginative faculties and our life forces.  \nYou don’t have to be an experienced artist to find this course enriching but you do need some knowledge of Steiner’s meditative path and be open to new ways of seeing the world. \n \nBackground information \nWith the increasing\, encroaching of AI-generated images filling our screens\, through film\, tv and internet\, the essential creativity that lives deep in the soul of every human being is under threat. AI-generated art is not creative. It does not arise out of human creativity but out of machines. Further\, it undermines the very essence of what it means to be human. \nIn the face of this attack on our human-ness\, we need to bring a counter-impulse by strengthening our capacity to work with imaginations that arise out of human spirituality and the spiritual in nature. \nBy working artistically and contemplatively with colour and the formative forces of life\, we can nurture our uniquely human capacities to create\, to think and to think creatively\, We can counter this dehumanising force\,  \nWe need to  enliven our imaginative faculties to counter the life-destroying forces bombarding us. \nWho is it for? \n\nFor artists\, art therapists and Waldorf teachers looking to find a path of soul/spiritual development through the arts.\nFor anyone seeking a non-intellectual pathway into Steiner’s meditative path.\nFor participants in the 2nd year of Art as a Path of Schooling for the Soul.\n\nTo get the most out of this course\, it is anticipated participants will work on their own between the fortnightly sessions. \nRecommended: familiarity with basic watercolour wet on wet\, wet-on-dry or veiling skills (you can use pastel if preferred\, but watercolour painting is recommended).  \nBackground reading: Steiner’s How to Know Higher Worlds: A Modern Path of Initiation \nWhen is it? \n3PM-5PM AEST Saturdays\, 14th June-23rd August 2025\nSeven fortnightly classes plus recording \nCost \n300 AUD/190 USD\n$310 AUD for PD certificate (requires 70% attendance and all exercises submitted to Padlet). \nVideo recording available for three months included in the fee. \n \n\nBook here!\n \n\nHow to join the workshop \nThe payment options\, Zoom link\, and list of materials will be sent after booking. \nFor more information \nThis course is a Painted Space Studio course. It is also a core component of Art as a Path of Schooling for the Soul. \nContact \n \nFeature image: Counter Colours\, Counter Forces exercise by Fiona Campbell

SUMMARY:Working with Steiner’s Training Sketches for the Artists
DESCRIPTION:Introducing Steiner’s anthroposophic training path for painters\nwith Painted Space Studio \n  \n  \n\n‘…and in the creations of the artist there will appear to us\nthe traces of his soul experience in the cosmos’\n \nSteiner \n\n  \n \nThe Nine Nature Moods  or Training Sketches are the definitive foundation and starting point of Steiner’s impulse for the Arts. Given as ‘picture seeds’ to lead us into the future\, they open the door to the new anthroposophic approach to painting. \n\n \nThis fortnightly online course introduces you to Rudolf Steiner’s approach to painting and his understanding of how the formative forces shape and move the world around us through his own pastel sketches. The course uses the wet-on-dry veiling technique but wet-on-wet or pastels are also possible if you prefer. \n \nWhat will we do? \n\n \nStarting with the sunrise\, these sketches take us on an imaginative journey following the sun\, moon and seasons as expressions of the spiritual laws in play between earth and cosmos. We work with each sketch creatively yet with careful attention to the forces they embody\, first in pastel\, then in watercolour to create a wonderful series of heavenly and earthly imaginations. \n \nWho is it for? \n\n \n\n	For anyone interested learning about the core anthroposophic approach to art\, colour and painting. \n\n\n	For Steiner teachers\, artists\, art therapists and art students seeking to develop their artistic practice. \n\n\n \nThis course is a core course of the Art as a Path of Schooling for the Soul training. Beginners are welcome\, but some watercolour painting experience is desirable. If preferred\, you may choose to work with soft pastels only. \n \nWhat is the importance of the Training Sketches? \n\nSunrise I\, from the Nine Nature Moods series \n\nYou can see some interpretations of these sketches here.  \nThese nine nature mood sketches are the starting place for anyone seeking to understand Steiner’s new impulse for the visual arts. But these sketches are not images of external natural events; they refer to acts that are effective in nature and human\, says Christiane Haid\, head of the Visual Arts Section at the Goetheanum. She believes that working with the creative forces in and around us can become the starting point for facing tasks in healing the world.  \nThe nine sketches are part of a comprehensive 28 motif portfolio known as the Training Sketches for the Artists. Along with Steiner’s watercolours\, The Seven School or Friedwart Sketches and many others (the Goetheanum epochs motifs are supplementary to the portfolio)\, they form the foundation of an anthroposophic art training in painting and drawing. Steiner first gave them to artist Henni Geck in 1922 for the new of painting\, just as he earlier developed eurythmy as a new art of movement. \n\n \n  \nWhen is it? \n3pm-5pm Saturdays AEST\, 6 September – 29 November 2025\nSeven two-hour fortnightly sessions. Participants are expected to do some homework between classes. Edited recordings of the sessions are available post-class but live participation is preferred to get the most out of the course\, including individual feedback\, unless your time zone makes this impossible. \n \nCost \n\n \n$290 AUD/$190 USD \n$300 AUD for PD certificate\, conditions apply* \nVideo recordings included in the fee\, available for private study. \n  \nBook here! \n \n\n \nThe payment options\, Zoom link\, a list of materials and suggested readings will be sent to you after booking. \n\n \n \n\n \nFor more information \n\n \n\nContact \n \n\n* PD (Pr0fessional development certificates) require 75% attendance and exercises on Padlet\nFeature image: Moonrise (2022) © Fiona Campbell\nFeature quote: from Artistic and Moral Experience\, in Colour\, Part III \n\n\n\n\n \n \n

SUMMARY:Working with Composition: Bringing Ego Organisation into Painting
DESCRIPTION:  \nAn exploration of the role of composition in painting in relation to the ego or “I”as the organiser of our soul life\, through painting\, drawing and art history observation. The health-giving effects of working consciously with the principles of the fourfold human being underpins this studio course.  \nWhat is composition?\nHistorically\, artists have always drawn on the laws of perception to arrange the elements within a work of art\, to create balance\, focus\, unity or harmony in the work. This need for the visual ordering of colour\, line\, form and space is essential to our feelings of connection to or our aesthetic enjoyment of a work of art. But why is this so?  \n\nWhy do we experience harmonious peace in a Raphael Madonna yet also harmonious dynamism in a Turner stormy sea?  \n\nDo the elements of a work need to be arranged in a balanced compositional way to be aesthetically pleasing to the eye? Or can we also find satisfaction in chaos and unstructured movement? and what is happening within us when we experience this sense of enjoyment with a painting?  \nSimply\, what is the role of our “I” when creating or contemplating an art work? How do bring presence to our paintings? \nWhat will we do? \nIn this online course\, we explore the principles of composition and learn how to leverage these principles to bring the multiple elements of our painting together into unified wholeness. We learn how perception influences our ego organisation and our experience of harmony and balance when viewing both the great masters and our own work.  \nFirst\, we explore some classic laws of visual organisation\, such as the rule of thirds and the golden ratio\, by observing how these laws are inherent in famous artworks.  \nWe then learn how these principles relate to the role of our ego as organiser of our soul forces; then how to apply such principles to our own work. Thus\, the art work becomes a reflection of the activity of the ego on the fourfold human being\, according to the anthroposophic approach to painting.  \nThere is particular focus on the salutogenic effects of consciously working with ego organisation in painting. \nWho is it for? \nThis is a Schooling course but you are welcome to join us!  \n\nFor artists\, art therapists and art students looking to find a path of soul/spiritual development through the arts.\nFor anyone interested in an artistic understanding of the role of our higher self or I in visual composition. \n\nTo get the most out of this course\, it is anticipated participants will work on their own between the fortnightly sessions.  \nRequired: some familiarity with the anthroposophic approach to art and basic painting technique. Watercolour veiling/wet-on-dry skills are preferred.   \nPlease note: this is not a step-by-step instructional class so not advised for beginners in painting unless you are adventurous and self-motivated! \nWhat dates are the classes? \n3pm-5pm AEST Saturdays\n13 September-6 December 2025 \nThe workshops are recorded but live participation is preferred\, unless your time zone makes this impossible.  \nHow much does it cost? \n$300 for PD or for new participants.\n$280 for ongoing participants \nRecordings available post-course for private study.  \nHow do I book? \nBook here \nAfter registration\, participants will be sent the payment details and a list of suggested readings and materials.   \nThe Zoom workshop link is sent one (1) day before the class. \nFor more information \nPlease contact Fiona Campbell at Painted Space Studio \n  \nAbout the presenter \nFiona Campbell is the director of Painted Space Studio. She a researcher\, lecturer\, visual artist and arts educator. She has an interdisciplinary PhD on creativity and cognition and also trained as an art therapist. \nShe has special expertise in the anthroposophic approach to painting and has been teaching painting for 25 years. \nFiona is also a member of the Stream of Life Research Studio\, where she focuses on her other two specialisations\, phenomenology and creative cognition. \nYou can find out more about Fiona on her website or listen to a ABC Soul Search interview with her about the anthroposophical approach to art. \n  \nFeature image: Indigo and Umber Study I © Fiona Campbell 2000

SUMMARY:A Conversation With Your Garden (Autumn): Goethean Observation and Drawing
DESCRIPTION: \nPainted Space Studio presents\n  \n\nOh\, I who wish to grow\,
I look out\, and inside me the tree grows. \nRainer Maria Rilke 1914 \n\n \nImmersing ourselves in Nature as She turns inward … \nAutumn is the wonderful time of year to turn our eyes to the changes Nature brings to the garden: the reds and golds of European trees\, the bounty of fruits and late vegetables\, all mixed in with the evergreens and native plants following their own local seasonal changes. \nWhether you have your own garden or like to walk in a local park\, a nature reserve or even just tend a few pot plants on your balcony\, being with plants in their endless cycles of becoming and dying away is both energising and de-stressing for us. A health-giving counterblance to computer work! \nUsing Goethean phenomenology to guide us\, these six online workshops will help you to become more ‘at home’ with nature. \nThe six workshops use mixed media and different drawing techniques to take us through this process. Techniques include charcoal\, pencil\, paint and pastel. Participants keep a visual diary to document their discoveries and observations. \nWhat is Goethean phenomenology? \nGoethean phenomenology (also known as Goethean observation) helps us develops fresh\, new eyes for seeing and engaging with the world around us. It brings us into a more participatory connection with both nature and ourselves. \nWho is it for? \n\n	For anyone interested in knowing more about Goethean phenomenology and how to practice it.\n	For nature lovers who would like to learn a non-confrontational way of drawing plants.\n	For Steiner teachers\, artists\, art therapists and art students seeking to understand how the formative forces work in Nature\n\nSuitable for all levels. You do not need to be an experienced artist to enjoy these workshops. Video recordings included in the fee\, available for private study. \nWhen is it? \n5.30-7.00pm AEDT\, 25 February-6 May 2026 \nCost \n$230 AUD\n$240 AUD PD certificate (75% participation required).\nVideo recordings included in the fee\, available for three months. \nBookings\n \n\n \n \nYou will be sent the payment details and a list of suggested materials and readings after booking.  \nThe Zoom link is sent one (1) day before the workshop begins. \nContact \n  \n  \nFeature image: Autumn Pastel © Fiona Campbell 1998

DESCRIPTION:A Painted Space Studio workshop\n  \nIf I delve deeper into the characters of the different colours\, they show me their dynamic qualities. Out my experience\, I can then let the colours guide me. \n  \nBeppe Assenza \n  \nThis course introduces the iconic veil painting technique so closely identified with Rudolf Steiner’s artistic approach. \nWe delve into the language of colour using transparent surfaces of liquid colour in free compositions inspired by Beppe Assenza’s playful but meditative approach to painting. \nThis is the preferred technique of any anthroposophic painting training. It is not an easy skill to develop but very satisfying to master. \nRudolf Steiner developed this technique as a way of of interfacing with the spirit through painting.  \nYou can read more about the anthroposophic approach and why we prefer watercolour over acrylics and oils in this short article. \nWho is it for? \n\nFor anyone interested in learning the veiling (wet-on-dry) watercolour technique.\nFor artists\, art therapists and Steiner (Waldorf) teachers who want to deepen their understanding of colour (PD certificates available).\n\nWhen is it? \n3.00 pm-5.00 pm AEDT\, Saturdays\, 28 February-25 April 2026\nFive fortnightly sessions plus video recording \nCost \n$240 AUD\n$250 for PD certificate (75% attendance and participation required)\nVideo recordings included in the fee\, available for private study.\nThe payment options\, Zoom link\, and a list of materials will be sent to you after booking. \n\nBOOK HERE\n \n\n  \nFor more information \nThis course is a core component of Art as a Path of Schooling for the Soul.
