Escape to the Chateau
Landscape Painting in the French Countryside
May 2020
Join us for a five night retreat this Spring,
at a beautiful Chateau in the Vendée.
Paint the rural surroundings,
developing your own individual response to the landscape.
The week will be a mix of creative exercises,
individual practice and one to ones.
Be inspired by your fellow artists
and benefit from peer support and critique.
Surrounded by beautiful scenery, in tranquil park and woodland, with 40 acres of land at your disposal, there are plenty of view-points on the estate, as well as frequent opportunities to explore and paint local villages, nearby forests and coastal regions.
Stay in one of the charming gites, set within the grounds
of this private Chateau.
Each gite has between 4-6 bedrooms and are complete with kitchen and living areas, fireplaces and swimming pools
Your stay will include all meals, freshly prepared, designed to be healthy and balanced.
Lunches will be served alfresco.
Evening suppers will be served in the dining room of the Chateau and include three courses with wine.
We welcome all abilities from complete beginners
to established artists.
Numbers are limited to 14.
