What could be better than Provence in June? It's not too hot, it's not too cold, and the lavender is in full bloom! Come and join a small group of artists as we paint and enjoy a week together in the beautiful Drome region of northern Provence. The Drome region is lush and green, abounds with lavender and vineyards, and is not over run by tourists! So grab your favorite medium and come on! We will spend several days visiting different painting locations together. The area abounds with lovely places to paint! We will also paint at and around our accommodation, which is stunning. In fact, the picture to the left is one of the lavender field behind "our place". There are many places to paint within a short walking distance of the estate. There will be one free day for rest, lying by the pool, or just continuing to paint on your own. After all, it is you choice in an artist's retreat! |
