Some more about the workshop
This workshop is suitable for any level of experience but some drawing experience will be useful. There is so much in Lucca to inspire that we will find something for everyone to draw and paint.
Each day will start with a short theory session then a demonstration of the day's painting subject out on location. After a break, I will let you loose to paint, I will come and help each student in turn throughout the afternoon.
There will be a special emphasis on quick sketching – perfect for when we are on-the-go in daily life or while travelling.
We will also explore subject selection and strategies to tackle complex subjects.
You might not come away with completed paintings as painting en plein air is most suited to sketching and preparation for a studio work. What you will have is lots of reference material to play with when you get home.
Our workshop day starts promptly at 9am through to 4pm at predetermined location. Please ensure you have internet enabled phone with map and whatsapp so I can communicate with you. We'll have a wee siesta (in Italiano una pausa) and then meet for aperitivi at 6pm then on for dinner.
I allow photographs of my demonstration paintings as they evolve as long as it is understand that I DO NOT allow filming of any kind, including with cell phone or tablets.
Travel Light: We will be exploring Lucca on foot so please travel lightly and be prepared to carry your own supplies all day (a flight cabin wheelie bag is perfect for this).
​Participants are required to bring their own art supplies – a materials list will be sent as part of registration documentation.
Alcohol, accommodation, insurances and living expenses are not included.
Most days we will paint out all day and students can come and go as their work allows therefore lunch is not included (typical cost E10-E20).
Personal laundry is not included however laundry services are available.
​Painting Holiday Workshops can involve a considerable amount of walking and stair-climbing and it is important that all students have a level of physical fitness that allows them to take part in these activities without the need of assistance from others.

Field easels are available for a small fee and a refundable bond.

Quality Guarantee: All my watercolours are painted with only modern professional grade watercolour paints on Museum exhibition grade watercolour papers, they are extremely lightfast and will become a family heirloom and passed down to subsequent generations. ALL art of ANY medium should be hung away from direct sunlight. If​properly cared for, watercolour paintings will last as long, if not longer, than oil paintings. I only paint on 100% cotton rag paper, mostly Arches and Fabriano, and frame to conservation standard with acid free materials.
