Umbria Art Escape: Painting Umbria with Words & Images

What: Sketching, Painting and Art Journaling

**including calligraphy, drawing, watercolor & bookbinding

When: July 29-August 12, 2012

Where: La Romita, Terni, Italy

Who: Sharon Zeugin, Instructor

Artists of all levels are welcome on this Italian art adventure which begins in Rome on July 29. Our Home for two weeks will be La Romita, the lovely renovated former monastery perched on a hill above the city of Terni. We will set out by bus each morning, with sketchbooks in hand, to explore area villages and cities--and even a museum by the sea--while making time for shopping, sight-seeing and a pastry or latte. Back at La Romita we will enjoy locally grown food and wines prepared for us by the kitchen's talented chefs, followed by afternoons of relaxing in the gardens, or sketching and painting in the charming art studio housed in the converted chapel of the former monastery. Come find your muse among the ancient olive groves! Learn how to combine watercolor, calligraphy, drawing and painting in making exquisitely personal and unique art journals and sketchbooks. Each participant will come away with a hand bound art journal which tells the story of their experience in Umbria.
