3 NIGHT PARIS - 6 NIGHTS MONDOUBLEAU
The workshop will begin in Paris. For the first 3 nights the group will stay in the Latin Quarter and will have a French emersion into art, museums, gardens, and café’s. A visit to the Musee de l’ Orangerie, which houses Monet’s huge oval water lily paintings. The museum just reopened last fall after a 6 year renovation. Another outing is planned to Giverny, located about 45 miles northwest of Paris, the quaint French village, best known as the home of Impressionist painter, Claude Monet. We will also visit one of the oldest art supply stores, Sennelier located by Ecole des Beaux-Arts.
Then we travel to Montdoubleau where the group will stay in a wonderful French home. The owners run their home as an inn. This deluxe house affords lots of room and this will be our home for the next 6 nights. The workshop includes all of our meals in Montdoubleau, our meals will be prepared for us by our own chef, daily outings to paint ”plein air”, life just can’t get any better.
Mondoubleau is located in the Perche Vendomois, a
hilly countryside, pastoral, very beautiful. About 30 km south there
is an old renaissance village. To download more information on the
