About the event

Take a lovely creative walk with art instructor Dominique who will show you the basics of sketching in the beautiful natural park surrounding Etang Fontmerle.  

The setting

Etang Fontmerle, where you will discover the beauty of nature from an artist’s perspective, observing and sketching trees and flocks of migratory birds. Chapelle Notre Dame de Vie, which is located there, was painted by Winston Churchill and was also where Picasso had his last Workshop. In 1949 Jean Marais and Jean Cocteau were regulars here. Le Manoir de l´Etang, which you can see on the hill, was entirely renovated and is now a sumptuous hotel.

Your day

You will take a leisurely stroll along Canal Siagne and Chapelle de la Vie circa 2 km of walking distance. You’ll stop at 2 or 3 lookout points where Dominique will give you a sketching class. 

By lunchtime, your travelling notepad – “travelogue” - will be full of the mornings’ drawings... your memories captured forever... 

Lunch After the morning’s creations, you will certainly not resist a freshly prepared picnic made using local Provencal products such as cheese, delicatessen, quiche, tapenade and local wine or cider.
