International Art Retreats
‘One of my favourite things in my life to do is teach overseas to artists of all levels. People from North America, New Zealand and Europe have participated in these retreats and many have returned a number of times’.
Michelle gets very excited every time she speaks of her international art retreats of which she has been doing since 2007. ‘The enriching experience of another culture and country is amplified ten fold when combined with creating art. The senses are heightened. It’s that pause and relaxation of art that truly allows you to see, smell, taste and absorb all that is around you. And being with like minds opens the conversations of these experiences. Very tight and enduring friendships have been bonded over the years. I absolutely love it!’

This event sold out in under 24 hours, but TWO SPACES are now available.
Il Giardino di Vigliano ( https://www.agriturismovigliano.it/ )
$2,099. CAD based on two sharing
-this price includes your breakfasts & dinners ( with wine), 8 nights accommodation, transfer to/ from airport, limoncello making demonstration, mozzarella making demonstration
$1200. CAD per student for the art program payable to Michelle directly
During the time we are there, we will alternate our excursions with full days of art making at the agriturismo. We will still be using our sketchbooks and drawing while we are out sightseeing, so be sure to never be without it! The materials you need for this program are minimal and take up VERY little space in your luggage. I have been doing these excursions for so many years that I have the supply list down to a science! I generally will provide a few extra items for you as well.
The excursions are not included in the prices and are nominal and payable directly to our drivers or captains ( or the fee of entrance) These include a day on Capri, a day to Amalfi & Positano villages, a day to Pompeii.
