Drawing and painting week in France

16 - 23 MARCH 2024
CLOS MIRABEL - JURANCON - PYRENEES ATLANTIQUES - SW FRANCE

Cultivating Amazement – Join me in the Pyrénées, South West France for a week of Botanical Drawing and Botanical Watercolour Techniques. Throughout this workshop we will keep a sketchbook using the ink pen and watercolour technique. We will collect and sketch specimens of the local flora en plein air (as much as possible) testifying and recording our experience.

Morning sessions will be devoted to selecting specimens and drawing them in our sketchbooks. We will be in the park or in the studio. In the afternoon classes we will paint subjects as they have been approached in our sketchbooks, developing our personal choices and style and using the botanical watercolour technique.

The lessons will be in Italian and English.
During the course of the week we will explore various concepts to inform our illustrations and practice.

Coltivare lo stupore – Unisciti a me nei Pirenei, nel sud-ovest della Francia, per una settimana di disegno botanico e tecniche di acquerello botanico. Durante questo workshop terremo uno sketchbook usando la tecnica della penna a inchiostro e dell'acquerello. Raccoglieremo e disegneremo esemplari della flora locale en plein air (per quanto possibile) testimoniando e registrando la nostra esperienza. Le sessioni mattutine saranno dedicate alla selezione degli esemplari e al loro disegno nei nostri taccuini all'aperto o in studio. Nelle lezioni pomeridiane dipingeremo la flora locale utilizzando la tecnica dell'acquerello. Le lezioni saranno in italiano e inglese. Durante il corso della settimana esploreremo vari concetti per approfondire e ispirare la nostra pratica.

Ma sarà anche una magnifica vacanza con deliziosi pasti e buon vino.
