As meander through the fields and woodland paths of La Roane, absorbing the atmosphere, the workshop will begin. Through a series of drawing exercises designs will emerge, inspired by the surroundings and those of the 20th century French artists and weavers, Catelin, Robert and Lurcat. Demonstrations linked to their techniques, will follow in our spacious outdoor studio.
During the week you will be encouraged to talk to the group about your own work, to share ideas and discuss what you would like to develop. We aim to incorporate these wishes and adapt our tutoring to embrace areas you wish to work on. With two experienced tutors there will be plenty of time to accommodate all peoples different abilities.
La Roane, in south west France, is peaceful and secluded with wonderful woodlands and open spaces to explore. It is a nature lovers paradise. There is a circular swimming pool, wonderful in the day but swimming looking up at the stars at nights another experience. It has two wonderful spacious sites to accurate us, large indoor/outdoor yoga space with all the equipment and lots of private areas to sit and relax in.
