Art retreat in France: July 13 - 17
Over five days you will explore what inspires you and the marks you naturally bring to the canvas.
Each day will start with guided visualization or sound bowl meditation. After breakfast we will work indoors or outdoors - exploring the beauty around us.
You will start with the fundamentals: charcoal, pencil, and simple mark-making moving onto acrylics, using brush and palette knife - whatever takes your fancy! Your instructor will meet you where you are, offering individual guidance in composition, color-values, and use of materials. We will refine what you naturally bring to the canvas, pushing beyond the inner critics and perfectionism that holds us back.
By the end of the week, you will leave with confidence in your own marks, clarity about what moves you, and confidence to express this through your own style. Isn’t that what art is about?
This course is for beginners who would like to explore materials in a supportive environment as well as experienced artists who are keen to expand and deepen their practice.
