Santorini is a real Paradise on Earth, a majestic place, probably the best experience for a watercolor painter!!

The artists will be painting large or small scale, in our studio and plein air. 

 

 

The workshop is appropriate for all levels.

Every day the artists will be painting different subjects. Each time George Politis will

  • give a demo (step by step)
  • provide step by step notes and photos (pdf files and jpegs)
  • assist every painter and help through the painting process

The workshop is all inclusive, so included are:

  • Tuition / courses
  • Hotel 
  • All three meals per day (with wine, beer or refreshments in lunch/dinner)
  • Transportation during the workshop (in Santorini)
  • Museum and guided tours.

 

Great choices every day (for every taste), so that the artists will experience the best of Greek traditional and modern gastronomy!

 

 

 

 

The artists will be able to visit the best places in Santorini, many of them not known or easily accessible to the tourists!

Great and luxurious dinners with view (admiring the amazing Santorini sunsets).
