As I’ve mentioned, we had a life-changing experience at my France retreat and this time we’ll be staying at a Tuscan vineyard estate! There’s also an art studio, gardens, a lake, pool, and more, all surrounded by the warm Italian landscape. And, of course, we’ll be taking day trips to sip espresso and explore the local shops.
Again, I’ve partnered with renowned destination art travel company Uptrek to host this event. We’ve been working together the last few months to plan all of the beautiful details
And I can’t wait to share that magic with you!
ALL skill levels are welcome!

I always find it super helpful to hear from others about their experiences, especially since creativity can be so healing, soothing, and calming, so I’m including some reflections from my France retreat guests:

“What a spectacular week filled with love, care, friendship and art. Everyone produced magical paintings and memories for a lifetime.”— J. Hughes
“Juliette’s gentle guidance, presence, and encouragement helped me create more freely than I ever have. The environment she created gave us permission to experiment, play, and return to ourselves.”— Kalinda B.
“Juliette truly created something magical. I left feeling inspired, expanded, and deeply grateful.”— S.Y.
“From beginners to practicing artists, Juliette’s demos and support opened up new ways of creating. Her positivity and warmth made the whole retreat feel joyful, relaxing, and transformative.”— Pat R.
“Our retreat with Juliette was peaceful, beautiful, and full of magic. I will never forget it.”— Sara M.
