Day 1
Explore France… from Home!
France Travel Guide
Wander through Paris and loosen up with quick impressionist watercolour sketches. Then, just outside Grenoble, learn to paint the most picturesque little village you’ve ever seen.
For lunch, enjoy a delightful lunch at Lyon, the gourmet capital of the world.
Then visit the beautiful little historic town of Saint Paul de Vence (which captured the hearts of several famous historic artists) to paint a winding cobblestone street scene.

Check email inbox (or junk folder!) for Zoom Meeting details.
- Set up Art Space
Choose a nice corner where you can set up your paints, Zoom meeting and where you won’t be disturbed.
- Have a Water Bottle
Staying hydrated is important for your focus! I recommend using a water bottle so you never accidentally dip your brush into your drinking cup.
