outdoors, then we've put together the perfect fall special for you...
We've teamed up with Aaron Schuerr, an accomplished plein

Upon arrival, you'll find your easels, painting supplies, and canvases waiting, along with an assortment of pastries, muffins, fruit, and an ample supply of coffee to power you through the morning lesson. An impressive lunch buffet is set up in the field, and lessons continue into the afternoon.
