A unique opportunity to learn new approaches to watercolor and explore your painting with master watercolorist Wyatt Waters in southwest France. This all-inclusive retreat (excluding travel) will be held at Chateau Maroutte, a medieval castle that has been beautifully restored and sits on 270 glorious acres. Miles Copeland (former manager of The Police) owns the castle and will be our host. Over five days, we will paint on the castle grounds and nearby villages and towns. Our week will include day trips to the surrounding towns, castles, monasteries and churches, caves, Roman ruins, gardens, markets, and countryside, instruction, and fabulous meals at the castle and in the towns we visit. It will be a transformative experience for your painting.
