We’re highlighting our new Art Safari 'Secret Suffolk Nature' and delve into why the countryside inspires our art tutor Ian Sedge, who made these lovely paintings.

We've returned from the Galapagos, carrying tales of vibrant wildlife, sea escapades, and countless sketches. The beauty lies not in the neatness of our drawings, but in the shared memories they evoke. Recalling the boat's sway through shaky lines, or the humidity through our paint.

Have a peak at this week's newsletter where we reminisce the tropics of 'Darwin's Islands' along with highlighting some of the exciting events that take place during this years SketchFest!

Sketchfest workshops and demos are filling up fast! Mark Boyd's "Frequent Fliers" was the first to fly off the shelf. Be sure to visit our website and book your Sketchfest events soon so you don't miss your favourites.

Isn't this a beautiful sketchbook page from Mark Boyd? Based on my bird knowledge, I’d guess these are grey wagtails, a relatively rare sight in the UK. This makes it even more special to capture their form and colours in our sketchbooks.

Painting holidays for adventurous artists

Open that page... Travel with a paint box and a sketchbook! Travel in your mind during Covid restrictions with our Virtual Holidays. Travel in person with us when we can, as soon as we can.

Art Safari is all about how to look with an artist's eye. You will capture images on paper by direct observation. Sketch wildlife, landscape and people around the world on our exciting painting holidays and workshops.

Art Safari’s tutors and guides will make sure that your time spend painting abroad (or at home for virtual trips) is exciting and informative.

Art Safari began in Malawi in 1999 when Mary-Anne Bartlett led her first painting trip in Liwonde National Park and called it ‘Art Safari’. Since then Art Safari tutors have led tours to more than 40 countries worldwide, from the Arctic to the Antarctic.
