![]() ![]() Dear friends, I’m delighted to invite you to a series of upcoming art events that I’ll be part of this spring – from exhibitions in historic spaces to outdoor workshops and regular weekly classes. Whether you want to explore painting for the first time or dive deeper into your creative practice, there's something here for you!
One-Day Plein Air Workshop – Les Glycines Garden, Nesles-la-Vallée Saturday, May 4th, 2025Join me for a full-day workshop in the lush Les Glycines garden, where I’ll teach the expressive alla prima (first stroke) technique. We'll enjoy nature, painting, and a peaceful artistic flow in the same landscapes that once inspired Monet, Van Gogh, and Pissarro. Coffee & brioche to start, two painting sessions, and a delicious local lunch option (€15). Open to all levels – taught in English & French – limited to 15 participants. €80 per person – advance booking required. Info & materials: 0652316600
Solo Exhibition – In the Footsteps of Van Gogh Opening: Sunday, May 4th, 2025 Historic Wine Cellar, Auvers-sur-OiseI’m thrilled to present my plein air paintings from France in this intimate, historic space – a wine cellar turned artists' association – in the very village where Van Gogh spent his final days. As a red-haired foreigner myself, it’s deeply moving to share my work in such a meaningful setting. Come for the art, stay for the wine and the atmosphere!
Group Exhibition – Tribute to Daumier at Villa Daumier May 3rd – June 8th, 2025 Villa Daumier, Auvers-sur-OiseI'm honored to participate in a group exhibition at the original home of Honoré Daumier, beautifully preserved and now hosting contemporary artists who pay tribute to his powerful, humanistic vision. A must-see for lovers of art and history alike. ![]()
