Painting in France is a dream come true!

Painting in France is a dream come true!

As the leaves turn into marvelous shades of crimson and gold, I am already preparing for my watercolor painting workshop in Limoux, France, June 6-20, 2026! I am looking through my portfolio of watercolor journals dating back to 1991 and picking out my favorite page designs, subjects to paint, techniques that I have made up and techniques that I have learned from fellow artists. My journals are my art muse. Perhaps you have seen one of my articles that I have written for Art Journaling or Somerset Studio?

There is one spot left in my Watercolor Painting Workshop in Limoux, France, 2026! Would you like to learn more about my workshop? For more information, email me.
