Letters from the Painters’ Workshop
Rare letters from the studio of a Copenhagen-based conservator & artist
by
Welcome art into your daily rhythm
and let confidence grow naturally.
From the living space between thought and creation,
I write about how I paint, how I train the skill of observation,
and how to learn from the masters — their patience, their precision, and the spirit behind their work.
These letters study the dialogue between centuries of craft and today’s questions — where each artwork begins with a moment of observation and awe.

How we’ll Weave Art into Your Life
Whether you're here for ideas, rhythm, or a gentle nudge — you’ll find it in my letters.
You’ll also be the first to hear when a new round of the painting workshop opens.
Here's a little glimpse of what it looks like:
• Live sessions on Zoom. To stay connected, supported, and in steady momentum without long blocks of time.
Recordings included, so you can join when it fits.
• A simple, repeatable flow. To move ideas from your head to the page.
Warm-in → painting → sharing or next step.
• Short, focused prompts. To help you begin — even if you don’t know what to paint.
• Personal feedback from Zuzanna and a small group. Ask anything, see what’s working, and get clear next steps.
• Paint with watercolor and add one playful extra like pencil, pen or pastel. To spark curiosity, encourage freedom, and grow your creativity.
• For more support, the Premium Option will be available as an add-on.
4 private email critiques with one-on-one feedback and annotated responses within 48 hours.

About me
With a background in fine art conservation and a deep respect for materials, I support artists in bringing their ideas to life — clearly, confidently, and without overwhelm. My focus is on helping you build a creative rhythm you can trust, with short, structured sessions and kind, practical feedback.
I’ve spent over 20 years working internationally as a paintings conservator and artist. I trained in leading institutions across Europe — including the University of Cambridge — and have collaborated with museums, collections, and private clients worldwide. Along the way, my work has received recognition through awards and international presentations.
Whether you’re just starting or returning to your practice after a break, I’m here to help you make space for painting in your life — and feel good about what you make.
