Testimonial from Janis P,
15 years ago, during a trip to Italy, I found a wonderful artist named Angie Brooksby, who introduced me to the joy of painting en plein air in the Tuscan countryside. Angie was a patient, professional, and fantastic teacher. I credit Angie with helping me  find my creative path.  I now sell and exhibit my work, and teach painting workshops.  I can hardly wait to join one of Angie's upcoming workshops.

Painting outdoors is not for the faint of heart. Standing for hours in front of an easel can be a real adventure. Be ready to face the wind, offhand remarks from passers by, pesky bugs, gusts of wind and mostly, your own expectations.

Paint On site, outdoors, on the French Riviera — la Côte d’Azur. Seascapes, landscapes,
villages, poppy and lavender fields, old fishing boats…
