Painting & Cooking Workshop & Retreat in France
July 6-15, 2011
Join me for 10 days in the beautiful French countryside to paint where the impressionists painted, explore medieval villages, eat delicious local French cuisine, relax at the pool after a day of painting.... This summer we are adding the option of French cooking lessons from our master Chef at Garrevauqes!
I have been visiting this area of France for many years and found a beautiful Chateau/Hotel/spa to make our stay luxurious and comfortable. We will paint "en plein air" all around this magnificent area. Daily demonstrations, instruction, and critique will accompany this experience. Whether you are a beginner who always dreamed of painting or an advanced painter, here's your chance to make that dream come true.
Where we will be staying
Chateau de Garrevaques
Situated in the Valley of the Sor in the village of Garrevaques, the Chateau de Garrevaques sits in a beautiful rural location, amidst large broadleaf trees and fields of sunflowers.
It is 20 years now since Marie-Christine and Claude Combes, started receiving guests from around the world in their Chateau home. Located in the heart of the Cathar country with its 8 guest rooms and park of century old trees, the Chateau de Garrevaques is an ideal spot for finding peace and relaxation or as a base for visiting Toulouse, Carcassonne and Albi.

Art & Soul Painting Workshops
Check out our Painting & Yoga workshop/vacation
There is the seed of an artist in everyone. Some of us have started blooming while others have always had the desire to give life to the creative painter deep inside. In our classes, Faye will show you how to take action on that desire to paint while nurturing, feeding and planting that artist in you. Her courses will help you burst and bloom with creativity. If you've been painting all your life and want to give new life to the painter you already are, come and take a workshop and watch the transformation.
Art Classes for Kids & Teens
Does your child excel in art?
If your child loves to draw and paint and shows real talent? Are they working toward getting into the art field and majoring in art? Are they working on their portfolio? Do you feel that your child would benifit from one-on-one personalized training helping them develop their talent?
Here's a chance to develop their skills in the subject that they love.
Does you child exhibit artistic ability?
Place them in an environment dedicated to teaching young people the fundamental elements of art.
Our Philosophy begins with a sound approach to understanding the foundations of drawing and painting. By teaching students fundamental concepts, they will begin to understand the process and components that go towards creating a strong work of art.
Don't underestimate a child's ability to understand the fundamentals. These fundamental concepts are usually taught at a higher level of learning. Art Class For Young Adults believes the sooner students understand the basic fundamental concepts, the more prepared they will be to take on more challenging artistic ideas later in life, with greater execution and more satisfying results.
Our goal, over time, is for our students to begin to develop a style that will later distinguish himself or herself from other artist. The sooner a student begins the greater chance this will happen at an earlier age.
