Botanical Watercolour Painting

Completed

I‘ve just completed a magical week of teaching and painting in wonderful Clos Mirabel. Everything about our week was special. From the warm welcome we received on our arrival through to our comfortable and well appointed accommodation, our delicious and generous meals, to the spacious studio which was our home for the week, we couldn’t have wished for more….except to return!

The great news is, that I will be returning from July 5 – 12, 2025.

I’ll be teaching again in Clos Mirabel in the foothills of the majestic Pyrenees. I’d love you to join me for this very special experience!

• Give yourself the gift of bringing your painting to a new level of competence and skill. 

• Give yourself the gift of space to retreat for you. 

• Give yourself the gift of relaxation and fun, in good company, with wholesome tasty meals, in a comfortably luxurious setting. 

Wake to views of morning mists drifting over the vineyards rolling down into the valley……

Let your eyes wander to the vista of the mountains sweeping up from the valley……

……………Breathe.

I know we’re going to be spoiled for choice when it comes to choosing subjects to paint at this glorious time of year.

It’ll be an immersive learning opportunity, a retreat for you and a lovely restful holiday in a beautiful place with breathtaking views over the snow capped Pyrenees.

The studio at Clos Mirabel is spacious, filled with light, and a wonderful base for us as we spend our days learning, practicing and applying new painting skills as we paint. With beautiful peonies, irises, and tulips, as our subjects, our focus will be on bringing life and movement to our painting. We’ll take our inspiration from the hills and valleys surrounding the Manor House and from the gardens themselves. With many years experience as an arts educator and a practicing artist, I look forward to generously sharing with you my knowledge and experience.
