Not Just a Painting Holiday

Not Just a Painting Holiday Art, Culture and Photography Holidays in Umbria with excursions, wine-tasting and cookery lessons. It is a holiday to remember!

Perched on top of a hill and nestled in pine-woods, 700 metres above sea level, is the enchanting medieval village of Castel Rigone with magnificent views over Lake Trasimeno. It is here that I have chosen as the perfect venue for my relaxing and inspirational Holidays. In addition to my own painting holidays I also arrange courses for artists and photographers who would like to bring along the

ir own group to teach. Accommodation and tutoring is in the exclusive Relais La Fattoria, a small period hotel with superb roof-top terrace and breathtaking views over Lake Trasimeno. Originally a 'Padronale' this hotel dates back to the 1600's and retains its charming traditional features whilst providing excellent modern facilities. I have known this area of Italy for over thirty years and we have owned a house here for ten years so are able to introduce you to the best locations, views, restaurants and entertainment. We call ourselves, ' Not JUST a Painting Holiday' because we offer so much more than just the opportunity to improve painting skills. Our holidays are 'tailor made to suit your requirements with excursions, wine-tasting, cookery lessons, Italian classes and much more! Included in the seven days are two excursions to magical towns like Assisi and Montepulciano where you can savour some of the exquisite wine, cheese and olive oil. All excursions culminate in dinner at a carefully selected restaurants offering a delicious choice of local specialities. In addition to your chosen art or photography course there is also a unique opportunity to try your hand at ceramics in a long established family run pottery near Deruta and, for those who would like to experiment with a different medium, a painting on silk class or painting on glass.

I'd like to introduce the work of a very special young lady Letizia Pitner who I met in Passignano, Italy at Easter. Special firstly because she has amazing talent and secondly because she is still at school. I'm sure we will see much more of her work in the future!
