Whether you join us for a late spring painting workshop on beautiful Monhegan Island or a lazy, lush, Indian summer painting experience on Cape Cod, it will be a vacation to remember. Designed to accomodate busy people, these four day/three night trips are ideal.

Monhegan Island, Maine

Join me for a four day, three night watercolor workshop and experience the beauty and lushness of spring on Monhegan Island, a painter's paradise. You'll find your pace slowing down to island time. There are no paved roads, seventeen miles of hiking trails, a village that looks almost like it did in the late 1800s, and a painting everywhere you look.

Lodging is at the Trailing Yew where you'll enjoy country breakfasts and dinners and evenings by kerosene lantern. We'll spend two full days painting so you'll also have time for exploring on your own. You might want to hike up to the lighthouse for a panoramic, magnificent sunset or catch the last rays of the sun out on Lobster Cove, where Jamie Wyeth has a home. No matter what you choose to do, you'll find your stay here a magical experience.   See Pictures

Vacation package includes four days and three nights private accommodations with shared bath, three breakfasts, three dinners, two full days of watercolor painting instruction, taxes and gratuities.

Once the rush of the summer crowd has gone, the Cape becomes a tranquil oasis in the fall with warm weather and soft ocean breezes beckoning you to feel the sand between your toes for a little while longer. You'll have ample opportunity to do just that at our gracious and spacious Cape house accomodations located near Bourne on Monument Beach. You are but a few steps to the water with a panoramic view of Phinney's Harbor from the large porch. The owners have lovingly cared for the house. The rooms are large and inviting and many offer an ocean view.  See Pictures inside the beach house.

We'll arrive on Friday and have the day to explore, relax, kayak, beach comb, or paint. Then, Friday night we'll have a potluck supper to get acquainted. Saturday and Sunday will be our art workshop days. We'll spend both days painting outdoors in the surrounding area with both a morning session and an afternoon session. Monday will be an opportunity for you to explore the area on your own again or go back to a spot that caught your eye for one more painting.

This affordable vacation package includes includes 3 nights lodging, 3 continental breakfasts, 2 full days watercolor painting workshop, and use of the house and kitchen facilities.
