Please join me for a magical retreat in France!

If painting in a most gorgeous setting in southern France is a long-time dream of yours, then this is the retreat for you!

Beautiful landscapes, comfortable, cozy accommodations, a fully-equipped indoor studio, lovingly crafted food of local origin, an indoor swimming pool, and excursions into the stunning landscapes and medieval towns of the Dordogne and Lot regions are a few of the things that await you.

Your ten days will be a beautiful blend of studio time, delightful excursions, cultural experiences and of course, plenty of free time to rest and explore! You will travel into the lovely countryside to paint and visit some of the most scenic towns in Southern France. You will spend time painting and picnicking along the Dordogne River and throughout the valley.

This workshop is perfect for everyone from beginners to advanced artists. Group sizes are small, a minimum of 7 and a maximum of 12, allowing me to have ample time to help each student every day.

Our time together will be a nurturing blend of being out in our environment, sketching and gathering inspiration, and devoted studio time and one-on-one instruction to allow you to grow your skills, explore new techniques, and relish in your creativity. We will paint with both oils and watercolor, as well as draw and sketch. We will explore and find painting inspiration to use as reference for years to come.
