What do you think will happen if you put 9 female strangers in a van to travel in a foreign country for a week?  The only thing that may be common is that they are artists or love art.  Can this be a once-in-a-lifetime experience?  Or a disaster waiting to happen?  Nobody knows until you actually do it yourself but it is quite a daring thing to do for sure.

I just returned from such a trip and it was fantastic!  I had a terrific group of 7 artists in my plein-air painting workshop in Spain.  With our wonderful organizer/guide/driver, Jackie, we had a blast despite the bad weather towards the end of the trip.  Jackie has invited me to do another painting trip as an instructor - next one in Provence, France in June, 2015 (details to be announced in my Workshop page).
