Have you ever dreamed of painting in a little village in Tuscany, France, or Spain?




...away from the maddening crowds…eating local cuisine and living the simple life as Europeans pride themselves with? Did you think it was for others but not for you? Have you dreamed of this but did not think it was attainable? Well it is attainable and affordable with the . And you deserve it!

The offers an opportunity for any level of artist, beginning or advanced to paint to their heart’s content, or to explore another creative medium and share that excitement with fellow artists! Joan Skura, watercolor artist, tour facilitator/instructor has lived in these areas for short periods of time which has allowed her to understand the community and where to get the best subjects for painting, whether it is a poppy field where the poppies are in full bloom, a vineyard or in a village with winding pathways overlooking the local square. Stephanie Rostirolla joins Joan as an assistant facilitator and together they try to make your trip as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The uniqueness of trips is the small groups, the intimacy of country living, exploring the local customs and cuisine, and having time to paint.
