Join us in the hills of Tuscany for a floral painting workshop. Beyond painting, there will be exposure to wine tasting, pasta making and floral arranging. Our meals will be prepared with organic produce from the garden of Villa Lena. Guests will also have an opportunity to pick flowers of your choice for our painting sessions and spend a morning creating flower arrangements to paint.

Guests will spend 5 days in a restored country villa that is situated on 500 acres that dates back to the 15th century. It is surrounded by olive groves, grape orchards and ancient forrests.

I am excited to partner with Sonal Nathwani. Sonal is a Vienna based abstract floral artist whose work has been featured in Anthropologie, Minted and Marks and Spencer.
