PAINTING IN PARADISE

BOTANICAL ART IN FIJI

17-24 March 2012

 

 

Combine a holiday with a Botanical Art Workshop and join international tutor and prominent  botanical artist Leonie Norton for this unique opportunity. Draw and paint the exotic plants of Fiji. The workshop is situated on the Fijian island of Vanua Levu, which is an unspoiled and non tourist island on a family run resort. Leonie has been taking groups over to Fiji for over 5 years and is familiar with the local attractions, plants and places to visit.

 

There are daily excursions to tropical locations, Fijian villages, rainforest areas and deserted beaches.

 

Benefit from individual tuition in an amazing location, with class and individual demonstrations. All skill levels welcome.
