The workshop was truly wonderful. They worked
very hard to satisfy everyone from the beginning to
the experience artist. The demonstrations were
great! I particularly enjoyed watching them paint
side by side, each interpreting the same scene, with
their own personality, mixing the colors on the
canvas. It was very inspiring. I think everyone in the
workshop came out with a better grasp on how to
paint from life, everyone challenged and excited to
take what they experienced back to their own work.
I highly recommend them!

Heaven on earth! Antonin and Anastasia's
workshop in France is one of the highlights of my
life! Excellent presenters, a group of enthusiastic
artists, an unforgettable setting, great cheese and
wine- what's not to love? Antonin and Anastasia
demonstrated in rural and urban locations. We
mixed a little tourism in with helpful guidance to
better painting. Plus, each evening the group
pitched in for fun meals, fire pit chats, and more
cheese and wine. Enjoy!
