Rapport: Fri Akademi Bornholm, maj 2021

Grundet rejserestriktioner var det ikke muligt for andre end de danske tilmeldte at deltage i Fri Akademi på Bornholm, men alle de fremmødte NAS-medlemmer nød fine dage sammen i Svaneke. Vejret holdt pænt de fleste dage, så mange benyttede lejligheden til at komme udendørs og male i de flotte omgivelser, som både bød på idyllisk bymiljø, havnestemning, hav og klipper. Winsor og Newton havde sponseret en fin goody-bag til alle deltagere med tubefarver, pensler, papirprøver mv. Nogle deltagere tog med til Gudhjem om søndagen, hvor Fri Akademis kunsteriske leder Marianne Gross holdt en akvarelworkshop på Oluf Høst Museet

Due to travel restrictions it was possible for Danish members only to participate in the Free Academy on the island of Bornholm, but everyone who came enjoyed some lovely days together in Svaneke. The weather was fine most days, so many people chose to go painting outdoors in the wonderful environments: idyllic views of Svaneke town, marine and harbour atmospheres, cliffs and seaside. Winsor & Newton had sponsored goody-bags containing tube paints, brushes, paper samples etc. for everyone. Some of the participants joined the trip to Gudhjem on Sunday where the artistic leader of the Free Academy, Marianne Gross, held a watercolour workshop at the Oluf Høst Museum.
