Painting in Andulucia
Why not try our painting and cultural course in Northern Andulucia, Spain. The atmosphere is peaceful and the evening meal can be taken out on the lovely terrace. Included with your holiday is the opportunity to visit the Alhambra Palace in Granada and the Mosque and gothic arches of Cordoba. We may even get the chance to have some Spanish lessons from Helen. David will certainly demonstrate true Spanish cuisine over a glass of local wine.
The week includes full board, all painting and drawing materials, professional tuition and a friendly atmosphere. Helen and David, the owners, both speak English and are extremely welcoming. This is a new building, delightfully decorated and recently converted from a farm house in a rural location and has its own restaurant with excellent local and regional cuisine.
When you organise your flights we suggest you arrange to arrive at Granada or Seville. To discuss your requirements use our direct email contact: johnperkins@btinternet.com, and we will get back to you straight away.
Lido di Jesolo
Join us at the Hotel Victoria Prestige, a four star hotel with private beach and swimming pool. The scenery is picturesque and the setting is very much one of sunshine, sea and leisure. Our itinerary is varied and includes a sketching day in Venice, travelling into the Venice lagoon by launch from the nearby marina.
There are many artistic locations to visit - such as the magnificent Doge Palace or the famous St Marks Square. The rest of our time is divided between working locally or in and around the marina. If you are a keen souvenir hunter there is a local market, as well as activities that range from wine tasting to jazz festivals. If this is all too much then in between painting sessions you can stroll along the beach front in the evening.
The hotel facilities are excellent and we recommend the food and wine list from personal experience. All rooms have tv, shower, air conditioning, safe and mini-bar. More details are held on the hotel web site. Places are limited at this venue and we suggest that you book well in advance to be sure of a place.
