Deb Painting holiday workshops really are marvellous!! I do hope you will take the opportunity to go on one. Perhaps I’ll see you on one of mine in the future? Spain is coming up and I will soon have plans in place for others (I am hoping for Costa Rica, the UK, and Tasmania for example!).

I liked how you mentioned that you would be there because you are passionate about art no matter your age, gender or background. It really would be a nice place to meet new people too! I will have to find a workshop to go to.

Fantastic Mark! It really is a great way to spend a holiday – a new place AND learning. I hope you will join me on one of mine – the next one is in Spain

I have always wanted to learn painting, however, I couldn’t find the time. Your idea of going to a workshop on holidays is great. I wonder why I’ve never thought of this. A week’s worth of workshop is always better than 2 – 3 days. I agree that longer workshop times can help students build on the things they learned during the week. I see how this can be the best option for me to take.

I know it’s not in everyone’a budget that’s for sure. I’d love to see you in a workshop though! And your area sounds wonderful. If you discover any studio opportunities do let me know.

I don’t know about what facilities may be available for workshops, but perhaps you could try to plan something for Galicia, here in the northwest of Spain. The seacoast ranges from tame to perfectly wild, and we have mountains in the interior, and rolling farmland in between. We still have preserved architecture – Santiago de Compostela is a World Heritage Site – and pretty villages.

Just an idea!
