2012 International Workshop
Cortona / Tuscany, Italy
Price: $2,495 p/p ($2,195 for non-artist participants) Single Supplement - $450 (limited availability)
We had such a great time visiting Italy in 2011 that we will once again return to the Tuscan countryside. We will be staying in the enchanting Cortona, the site for the book/movie "Under the Tuscan Sun". Everywhere you look is a site yearning to be captured on canvas from vistas, to spring wildflowers, to the village houses and alleys. There will be plenty of time for painting, critiques and excursions to the beautiful surrounding countryside. Demos and instruction will be in oils but those well versed in other mediums are more than welcome. Beginners to advanced painters welcome.

- Shared double room at 4-star Hotel San Luca
- Daily painting classes/excursions with Jeanne
- Excursions to wonderful locations- Assisi,Arezzo,Perugio, and charming towns along Lake Trasimeno
- 5 dinners together in local trattorie
- Select musum visits
- Pickup in Florence on first day of program
Does Not Include:
- Airfare
- Art supplies
- Independent meals, lunches, and sight-seeing

Two workshop venues-
|
Landscape Plein Air- This workshop starts with a studio day and then continues out on location. We will learn to tackle the vast subject before us and make great compositional decisions, vibrant color choices and learn to complete the painting in just a few hours.
Studio 'Plein Air'- This workshop is a studio class working with reference photos. We will learn to paint from images while making them as spontaneous as if we were painting on location. We will work on loosening up and putting some bravado into the brushwork. If the weather permits, an outside plein air paint day may be added.
Demos and instruction will be in oils but all mediums and levels of painters are welcome. Come join us!
