Learn How to Paint

If the idea of spending a week in Italy learning to paint sounds like paradise, the Abruzzi Mountain Workshop just might be heaven on Earth. The weeklong workshops take place in a picturesque hillside village in the Abruzzi region. Artists of any skill level will benefit from instruction in drawing, painting and color theory before moving on to specialties like still lifes, sculptures and murals. Programs include room, board, materials and plenty of inspiration.
