~ wonderful lodging for four nights in a lovely boutique hotel in the heart of poetic Seville
~ all breakfasts included as part of our hotel stay
~ 2 typical Spanish lunches plus two cocktail parties with light tapas
~day excursion to Cordoba in a comfortable private coach
~ tours with local guides
~ 2-4 hour sketching lesson each day with most of our sessions on site plus lots of time for individual help
~ admission to a unique Flamenco show
~ informal lessons on the history, culture, tastes and sounds of this beautiful region
~ access to our private tour guide during the entire trip
How this trip is unique:
This trip has the smallest group (8 students max) which will allow for students to have a very personal art experience in an iconic city. We will slow down, set up for sketching in amazing places and really take the time to absorb the extraordinary light and energy of this magical spot. While we will have a local guide with us each day, the emphasis on this workshop is to get to know the color palette, shapes and light that are unique to this historic location. We have planned an itinerary that allows for a relaxed yet productive experience with demos through the day and lots of time for students to explore their creative expression. You will end the trip having a deeper familiarity with Seville than any tourist just checking off the must-see locations and with a travel journal filled with pages where you "captured the moments".

"Hello Judith-I am delighted to say that your lovely book, "Joyful Pages", has winged its way to Mt Gambier,
South Australia and arrived safely today. It feels and looks beautiful, and is full of joyful inspiration.
Thank you. I have seen your YouTube videos, and wished I was able to take your classes. Now I have your
clear instructions and examples right next to me on my art table. Love it!" ~ Liz F.

"Do you ever leave a workshop breathless and wonder if you gave sufficient thanks to the instructor? You are magic! Thanks for being my lightening rod and the essence of positive spiritual potential that will take my art journey to a new place. On your worst days, remember this, you have a remarkable gift to inspire and to teach by example. God is smiling on your creation. " ~ KW after Crested Butte workshop
"THANK YOU for such a great workshop on Saturday. I have felt “blocked” for so many years when it comes to journaling, and now feel as if I’ve “broken through” those feelings! Just putting something down on those pages gets me completely energized and I can’t stop! What a gift you have and thank you for sharing it". ~ Ann G. (after Art Student League of Denver workshop)
"Thank you so much for such a delightful experience in your Collage and Coladas workshop yesterday. You are an extraordinary teacher, and the way you see something beautiful and creative in everyone's work is a real inspiration. I haven't enjoyed making art in over 40 years, until your workshop. It was a moving experience to see how you brought out the creativity in each of us." ~ Jason B. (after Crested Butte collage workshop)
