Your Time With andrea

Get ready for an experience of a lifetime that will be filled with inspiration and joy. Your 10 days in Gourdon, France will be a beautiful blend of colourful artmaking, inspiring excursions, cultural experiences and of course, plenty of free time to relax and explore.

Situated in the peaceful countryside adjacent to a tiny hamlet we’ll be staying at Perigord Retreats, and painting their beautiful surroundings. Beautiful landscapes, comfortable, cosy accommodations; a fully equipped indoor studio available 24/7, lovingly crafted farm-to-table food of local origin, an indoor swimming pool, and excursions into the stunning landscapes and medieval towns of the Dordogne and Lot regions. I cannot wait! Are you ready to join me?

During our time together, I will guide you through various art activities ranging from florals to landscapes paintings working with acrylics, watercolours and mixed media. My style is playful, colourful, and intuitive and no matter where you are in your creative journey, all levels are welcome. While in the studio we will work on our mixed media and painting projects. During some of our excursions, we will paint Plein-air as well as sketch in our travel journals and bring inspiration back from the villages to the studio.

When we’re not creating in the studio or gardens, we’ll be visiting enchanting medieval villages, strolling through French vintage markets, touring ancient castles, picnicking in the French countryside, and creating all along the way…the inspiration is endless!
