Creative Fruit and Flowers Art Retreat in Italy

with Ohn Mar Win & Victoria Johnson

Le Marche, Italy, October 16-23, 2021

This is your invitation to join me, Ohn Mar Win, and talented artist and designer Victoria Johnson for what promises to be an absolutely magical art retreat in Italy next year. Spend a week with us luxuriating in Mediterranean splendour at the magnificent Oliveto Estate overlooking the Adriatic Sea. Surrounded by natural beauty and inspiration, we’ll get to know each other, relax, and paint together.

Victoria and I will gently lead you through a creative process, designed exclusively for this retreat. We have years of experience teaching and fostering creativity, and you’ll enjoy individual attention from both of us. Whether you’re a beginner or professional artist, you’ll feel motivated and inspired as we focus on helping you release self-doubt and perfectionism and gain skills and confidence through embracing the happy accident.

The theme is flowers and fruit, and I can think of no better place to go for inspiration. The mellow climate and rich agricultural traditions of central Italy produce some of the most delectable and visually stunning flowers and fruit in the world. Steeped in culture (it’s the cradle of the Renaissance, for crying out loud!), your senses heightened, you’re going to be so inspired.

Nestled in the hills of the medieval city of Civitanova Alta, the estate where you’ll be staying houses two 5-star luxury villas with meticulous details. You’ll have exclusive use of the property, which includes two outdoor swimming pools, an indoor spa with sauna, and jacuzzi —plus a tennis court and fully-equipped fitness centre. Throughout your stay, we’ll be taking day trips to local beauty spots and you’ll sample the culinary delights of the region with gourmet meals provided by the estate’s in-house chefs.

After months and months without travel, it feels a little funny to book a vacation, but please be reassured that the retreat is 100% risk-free and fully refundable if cancelled due to the pandemic. We’re only going if it’s safe to travel.
