9th-16th October 2010
COURSE FULL - PLEASE APPLY FOR CANCELLATIONS LIST
Ann Blockley is a watercolour artist with an individual style developed over years of experimenting. Her paintings are evocative, atmospheric and intuitive. Textures, marks, edge values and mood fascinate Ann and form the basis of her demonstrations and tuition.
Her longstanding passion has been for flowers and nature, inspired by the gardens and countryside close to her Cotswold studio. She is one of UK’s leading flower painters, with a long list of flower painting books published by Harper Collins. Landscapes, buildings and animals, seen on her travels both in UK and abroad, have inspired Ann to paint new subjects and develop fresh ideas.
A week in this stunning area of the south of France will give Ann ample time to show you how to interpret a range of subjects and take your painting to a new level of confidence. Some of the subject matters that will be covered include:-
• Mountain scenery, peach and olive orchards surrounding Mas Saurine
• Farm buildings, old abbeys and churches, idyllic French geranium clad villages
• Interesting windows, doors, balconies, flower pots, rooftops
• Markets (sketching or just shopping!)
The cost for the week is 1200 Euros per painter or
950 Euros each for two painters sharing a room.
Non- painting partners 820 Euros per week or 950 Euros for the
Mediterranean Cookery Course.
Included in the price is: All tuition, luxury accommodation, delicious meals made with locally grown ingredients and prepared by our professional chef Julia, collection from Perpignan airport and station.
