During your 10-day creative holiday, Bev will instruct on the efficiency and joy of creating your own sketchbook journal, a very personal collection of 
reference sketches that will be a keepsake in and of itself but also a resource you can use as a basis for larger paintings once you return home.
She will share her methods, tips and techniques for recording what you see and experience…a visual shorthand that you can refer to at a later date.
While day-tripping around the beautiful Tuscan countryside with your guide, Lisa and her professional drivers, you will have ample time to sketch and photograph all of the wonders of this tranquil area. Later you will work closely with Bev, fleshing out your sketches in your journal or perhaps creating an entirely new painting of something you have seen and 
want to remember. The group is kept small (maximum 11) to allow for one-on-one time with Bev.
During your time here, you will visit hilltop villages ancient sites, wineries, castle ruins and more. The villages (some 600 years old or more) are waiting for you to discover them. Some are within walking distance; some we travel to in clean and comfortable minivans – all are jewels and treasures to be captured in your memories by way of your sketchbook journal and/or camera. You will see gorgeous flowers, incredible vista views of noble fortresses on hilltops, and ancient cities full of historical significance. We’ll tour a local, family-owned winery and sample the Vin Nobile, the renowned wine of the area.
And then there’s the shopping…You will experience the open air markets, as well as the shops and stops in
the villages we visit. In Montepulciano and Siena, you can wander to your heart’s content. (I recommend Siena for the Italian leather you will no doubt want to purchase.)
This is an opportunity to study with Bev and see the Olde World, in a way that most tourists never experience. This is a true immersion experience combined with creativity. If this sounds like fun to you, do not wait…these workshops fill quickly.
