Springtime, 2011, in Tuscany!
Daily watercolor classes, a personal chef, premiere accommodations, tours, and vino. A watercolorist's dream!

For years, students have asked for an overseas trip with en plein air lessons in someplace artists dream of. How about a beautifully restored medieval monastery as our base in the Tuscan hills? Late May is poppy time, so we'll have subjects for vivid colors and history for inspiration.

This is a full seven-day program from Florence--add a vacation week before or after to explore Rome, the Mediterranean or the Alps, and you've got an experience you'll never forget.

Price for accommodations, two meals daily with wine at dinner, lessons, and tours for the week is $2,295. Single supplement is $550 (limited availability). Please note, airfare is not included in this price.

For information and registration call the Tuscan Rennaissance Center at 800-990-3506 or go to http://www.ilchiostro.com/sign-up.php?workshop=167
