Join hosts Amy Funk and Christine Flynn for an oil painting immersive for all levels.
Arrive Thursday night for drinks, conversation and sketching, followed by a cozy dinner at our main venue The White Cottage in Chester, Nova Scotia. We'll start bright and early on Friday morning with a casual breakfast together, followed by a full day of instruction, practice and painting with Amy, with breaks for meals and movement. Enjoy free time after dinner or take a walk to Nova Scotia's oldest pub. Saturday, join in an optional early morning village walk with Christine, followed by another day of instruction with Amy. Sunday, we will have a final meal and showcase our work.
