Your time there will be richer than that of most tourists who simply pass through. We will celebrate the Vermont landscape through an artist's eye, our drawings and paintings becoming visual records of our experience. This workshop is an opportunity for you to experience the plein air painting process. Working outdoors on-site allows us to immerse ourselves in the land with all our senses - looking, listening, and smelling the unique character of the location.
