I’m so excited to let you know that I am teaching a painting retreat in FRANCE!
France has been on my list of places to visit for years and it is a dream to be able to share it with a group of wonderful creatives!
The retreat will be held at a gorgeous chateau in the Loire Valley, France in May 2025 ❤️
I expect this to fill quickly, so if you’d love to come paint and play together sign up for the waitlist by clicking here.
The retreat is limited to 16 guests. The small number of guests ensures more connection and quality one on one time with you!
Anyone on the waitlist will hear about the itinerary and have the opportunity to book before I announce it on social media!
Here are a few details:
- Loire Valley, France
- May 12-19, 2025
- 16 guests max
- Registration opens May 20th, 2024
Join the waitlist to be the first to know more and first to book on May 20th, 2024.
As you can see, we’re staying at a gorgeous 19th-century château! There’s also an art studio, gardens, pool, and more, all surrounded by orchards and vineyards.
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 😊
You know when something just flows? Everything lines up like angels and fairy dust, and it all falls into place. That’s what planning this retreat has felt like—total magic. And I can’t wait to share that magic with you!
ALL skill levels are welcome!

I hope to see you in France for an amazing art adventure!
