Have you ever been on holiday, looked at a beautiful old stone building and thought “I’d love to paint that but I wouldn’t even know where to start.”

Come with me to Tuscany for a week of painting rustic buildings, surrounded by rolling hills, fantastic buildings and textures to paint in watercolour.

This retreat is an introduction to painting buildings in watercolour so while you should be comfortable with watercolour, you absolutely don’t need any experience painting architecture.

We’ll spend the week exploring how to simplify buildings, capture texture and atmosphere, and find the character in those wonderfully wonky Tuscan houses. There’ll be plenty of painting, plenty of time to experiment, and plenty of time to enjoy being somewhere beautiful with other creative people.

If you’ve ever looked at rustic buildings on holiday and thought I’d love to paint that… but where on earth would I start? this one is for you.

This evening’s YouTube tutorial is a simple watercolour painting of a Tuscan villa tucked away in the hills.

It’s also a little preview of something very exciting launching on Thursday… I’m taking you to Tuscany for a week of painting rustic buildings, exploring texture, colour and the character of those beautiful old stone houses.
You don’t need to have painted buildings before, but you should be comfortable with watercolour. It’s going to be a chance to spend a whole week playing with something you may have always wanted to try, but never quite known how to begin.

For now, come and paint a little corner of Tuscany with me tonight.
YouTube tutorial out this evening and Tuscany retreat launches Thursday.
