'Making the Leap' with Vanessa Rothe in France, May 1-9, 2025

If you are ready for the art world to take your work seriously, join us for “MAKING THE LEAP”, the workshop geared towards you becoming a more professional artist armed with the tools needed to sell your work. This immersive workshop takes place in the inspiring atmosphere of a genuine 18th-century French château estate. Join us and discover how to use technical skills and develop business savvy as you learn step-by-step how to create, market and promote your art from instructor, Vanessa Françoise Rothe, an expert in the fine art world.

The cost includes all accommodations in a shared room (upgrades available), meals on the estate (breakfast, lunch, and dinner), grab-and-go lunch ingredients if painting off the estate, entrances to venues, and ground transportation. There are 2 optional meals out at your own expense. Our pick-up point is the Gare de Rouen-Rive-Droite. Other pick-up points may be arranged.

 Your itinerary includes morning lectures on the estate, and afternoons painting in fabulous locations, local markets, and visits to breathtaking villages. Students will leave the workshop armed and ready with the tools they need to market and sell their art.

Non-painting partners and companions are welcome!
