Join us in Italy from June 5-12, 2027 where Kelly Oakes will lead a 1-week artistic experience in Tuscany from a base in the quaint and historic village of Montisi. Choose your method of capturing the beautiful landscape and Tuscan attributes…oil, acrylic, pastel, pencil/pen, watercolor, or gouache. Kelly will guide the artistic endeavor as well as help you to do tours or other excursions. You will fall in love with Montisi and Tuscany.
Montisi, a small, vibrant, medieval hill town, will immerse you in Tuscan life. Perfectly located for day visits to every major Tuscan and Umbrian destination.Montisi is a cost efficient holiday to share with friends. Come and discover for yourself vineyards, olive groves, great restaurants, and beautiful scenery.
Our Painting Workshop will consist of 5 days of painting in and around the charming, medieval town of Montisi. We’ll paint in the mornings and later in the afternoons to take advantage of the remarkable Tuscan sunlight. The workshop instructor fee is $600. This is payable only for those who are painting. There will be other activities and explorations for spouses and friends not painting.
