About the program 
In beautiful surroundings, we explore how to capture atmosphere,
light, and shadow — and transform what we see into paintings with a personal expression.
The workshop focuses on simple and practical principles for building a strong composition,
giving you confidence to explore your own style.
Through daily exercises, we work with light and shadow, color awareness, mixing techniques, and color harmony.
One day will be spent painting in a charming medieval village, working from sketch to finished piece.
The course is adapted to each participant’s level, with individual guidance throughout.
Each day ends with a group review of the day’s work.
5 hours of painting classes daily. All instruction is in acrylics.

One of the days is set for excursion for those who want to explore this beautiful region.
Or maybe just spend a relaxing day on one of the small Mediterranean beaches?
