On three separate years he has conducted a ten day and two-week long painting workshop in Tuscany, in the charming little hilltop medieval town of Barga and in Umbria near Todi. This workshop is really a great opportunity to learn, as well as experience the wonders of Italy while staying in a beautiful agritourismo lodge,with an Italian cook preparing many of the scrumptious meals. The next scheduled trip will be in early June 2009.
