Non-Instructed Sketching / Plein
Air Tour
“Be your own Instructor!”
Go to the same idyllic locations as our instructed tours, without instruction! Paint and sketch on your own terms, in the company of like-minded companions.
Our itinerary will remain the same, which you can view here. Likewise we will continue to have small groups of 8-14.
If you are instructor and would like to work with us in the future, this is the perfect opportunity to scout the area, so you can promote with personal knowledge.
Non-Artists (shared accommodation only):
Our tour, although primarily focused on artists, does not preclude non-artists from coming too. If you appreciate beautiful scenery, good food and would like to experience a different culture and lifestyle then these trips are also for you!
