Two weeks in the heart of Tuscany! Daily painting instruction! All materials provided! Private room with en suite, and full board. All you need to do is show up! This is my 5th time presenting this workshop. After living in Italy for 10 years, I am delighted to share the beauty of this region with fellow enthusiastic painters!
How Does it Work?
Each day, we paint on the property and in the countryside. We venture out along country roads into the surrounding hills and valleys, painting medieval towns, bountiful farms, vineyards and olive groves. We convene at the farmhouse each evening where a full, home-cooked meal is served.
Between painting sessions, there's plenty of free time to go out sketching, read a book, or relax by the pool!
On the middle weekend there is no formal painting instruction. However, participants have the opportunity to visit Florence, Siena, or Rome, whose museums, churches, and piazzas are truly inspiring. Guided tours can be arranged. And, for those who wish, our host offers a cooking class where students get to learn some old family cooking secrets!
