Here is what you will experience...
...you will experience the very essence of this magical place & take time to pause for beauty - breathing it all in.
...you will experience glorious color!
I scheduled this workshop around the typical bloom dates of poppies so we can paint them.
...you will experience taking time to be aware & to listen.
...you will experience the most amazing food & wine!
...& you will experience all of these memories by capturing them in a travel journal that you will come to cherish much more than your photos - these will be your memories!
About The Workshop...
Students will enjoy painting and creatively savoring the essence of Tuscany in all of it's splendor by creating a handmade travel sketchbook from watercolor paper. Students will then be encouraged to develop some of their favorite moments from the sketches into paintings in the studio. Trish brings her infectious enthusiasm, wanderlust-joy, and fun, colorful painting style into each travel workshop experience she conducts.
