Courses & Events
Painting classes, workshops and kids' birthday parties in Eindhoven
Painting in my studio in Strijp-S, for children, adults and teams. Groups are small, and everyone creates a painting of their own at every session. No previous experience needed.
Kids' birthday party “Paint Party”
2 hours · 6 to 10 children · from €25 per child, minimum €150
The birthday child and their guests paint together in the studio, each child their own picture. I prepare paints, canvases and workspaces and guide the group through the two hours. Suitable for children aged 10 and up. We arrange the date personally: send me your preferred date and the number of children.
Kids' course
4 sessions of 1.5 hours each · up to 6 children · €80 per block
Over four fixed sessions the children try out different colours and techniques and paint at their own pace. The small group leaves time for every child. Suitable for children aged 8 to 16. I will announce the next dates here; until then you can ask to have your child put on the waiting list.
Adult workshop “Abstract painting”
3 hours · 6 to 8 people · from €75 including materials
In three hours you paint your own abstract picture on canvas. I show you step by step how an abstract painting comes together: choosing colours, layering and texture. Canvas, paints and tools are provided. I will announce the next dates here; until then you can ask to be put on the waiting list.
Company workshop as a team event
2.5 hours · up to 8 people · flat rate on request
An afternoon together in the studio instead of the meeting room. Each person paints their own picture. Tell me your team size and preferred date and I will send you a quote.

About me
I am Merima Besic-Krueger – artist, mother and passionate painter for as long as I can remember. Even as a child I never put the brush down. Later, my love of painting became a real craft: for many years I had the privilege of learning from Katharina Meister, a master of her craft in Oberhausen. Today I have been painting for more than 20 years – and it still feels like the very first day.
After many years in Germany, I now live in Eindhoven with my family. I speak fluent Dutch, German, English and Bosnian – and perhaps it is exactly this mix of worlds that you can sense in my paintings.
My acrylic paintings are a mirror of my life: impressions from many journeys, emotions, thoughts – everything finds its way onto the canvas. I paint to make feelings visible and to fill rooms with warmth and energy.
If one of my works touches you, then exactly what art means to me has happened: connection.
