About

Mgr. Jitka Zajíčková offers specialized watercolor and fine art courses in Prague for children and adults, bringing genuine artistic expertise to small-group and individual instruction. Watercolor is a medium with a rich tradition in Czech art, and learning it in Prague — one of Europe's most paintable cities — gives the experience a particular resonance.

For families visiting Prague with children aged six and up, a watercolor session with Jitka is a memorable and distinctly Czech experience. The medium itself is engaging: watercolor produces immediate visual results, with colors blooming and blending in ways that feel almost magical to children experiencing the medium for the first time. Unlike oil painting, watercolor is clean, quick-drying, and produces finished pieces light enough to carry home easily.

The instruction is genuinely high-quality. Jitka brings formal training and real painting experience to the classroom, which means children learn actual technique — how to control water and pigment, how to build layers, how to capture light — rather than just getting paint on paper. For artistically inclined kids, this is the kind of instruction that actually improves their skills.

Classes are small, creating a focused and productive environment where children receive individual attention. The finished watercolors make exceptional souvenirs from Prague — original artwork that the children made themselves, lightweight enough to pack, and meaningful in a way that purchased souvenirs simply are not. Book ahead to confirm availability for your preferred dates.
