Whenever you mix friendly, adventurous artists, good food and wine, beautiful landscapes and the sun, you can be sure the good times will be had.  These artists may not necessarily know each other at first, but usually it doesn't take long before they start talking to each other as if they were close friends.   My recent workshop experience in the Northern Tuscany was just like that.

I was at the Watermill at Posara, a lovely painting holiday venue run by Bill and Lois Breckon, together with 12 artists who came from all over the world to attend my course there.  In the secluded corner of Tuscany, we painted, discussed art, laughed, explored small villages, tasted fine local cuisine, etc...  Needless to say, we were so artistically inspired by the whole experience I think we can be just painting Tuscan scenes for a while from now.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my workshop students, Bill and Lois, people working at the Watermill and all the people we met, from local villagers to market vendors to gelato shop owners, for making it an unforgettable week.

I am happy to say that Bill and Lois have invited me to return there in October 2015 to teach another watercolor course.  A 3-day Florence add-on will be also offered to anyone taking my course (For more information, please click this link).
