PLEASURABLE PAINTING IN PUGLIA, SOUTHERN ITALY

WITH TJASA IRIS

 

Landscape Painting Workshop at Masseria Salamina

 

This area of Italy is less known than for example other Tjasa's workshop locations as Tuscany or Venice. Due to that, this workshop normaly also has less crowd, less participants. You can almost expect private lessons! But even if you will be just in two persons, Tjasa will not cancel the workshop as this is her favorite workshop location after all! And she loves to come to this part of Italy and as well to revisit the wonderful family De Miccholis Angleini that is owning the Masseria Salamina, and that you will have a chance to get to know, too. Next year it will be 9 years since Tjasa is holding her workshops at this location! So, she knows quite well this wonderful and misterious part of Italy.

Tjasa's workshops are designed for you not just to learn painting, but also to get to know the country you are visiting. Its culture, history and cuisine. For this reason, the program is designed for you to paint 4 hours per day and after that as well to participate at a town feast, local markets, archaeological sites... and to enjoy the wonderful cuisine of Puglia, that will be prepared for you in a form of a four course fancy complex traditional dinners at Masseria Salamina.
