Sacral room of the Templars at Lockenhaus Castle
After walking through the Templar museum at Lockenhaus Castle, I came across this mysterious room. It is said to be a sacred site of the Templars. Other voices say it is just a cistern.
Painting lessons at Lockenhaus Castle
Let’s play “Guess the movie”! This photo was taken at that castle where I created a painting with some coffee and gold leaf. There is still some gold at my finger, so about which movie I am speaking?
Coffee art at Lockenhaus Castle
After taking a lesson in Latte Art, I did it again: making art with coffee. At Lockenhaus Castle, I took a class in painting with coffee and gold led by the Austrian artist Stefanie Moro. I “klimt” the Iron Maiden I saw in the castle vault.
Room Elisabeth at Lockenhaus Castle
At Lockenhaus Castle, I stayed in the room “Elisabeth”. Whereas the room was old-fashioned furnished, the bathroom was pretty modern. It was a corner room, so I had a great view of the place of Lockenhaus and parts of the castle itself.
Acrylic art at Lockenhaus Castle
Right below the walls of Lockenhaus Castle (Burg Lockenhaus) in Burgenland, I took a class about working with acrylic paint led by Elisabeth Holzschuster. Well, how do you like my first work? It is called ‘Blue Car on a Rainy Day’.
Iron Maiden at Lockenhaus Castle
A ‘Eiserne Jungfrau’ (Iron Maiden) seen at Lockenhaus Castle. Though such devices are often shown at castles they are supposed not had been used at all. Probably they were just show pieces inspired by another device called ‘Schandmantel’ (Spanish Coat).
