previous weekend workshops
Veterans Plein Air Painting Workshop in June 2022 in Ashcroft BC
"It was a pleasure and honour meeting you and the others at the Honour Ranch and participating in the Veterans Plein Air Retreat. I was skeptical attending as I had no painting experience, however, everyone made me feel comfortable and welcome. I found the painting to be very relaxing and enjoyable. A great stress reliever. You have opened my eyes to the beauty that surrounds us that I had not noticed or paid attention to in many years. I even took pictures during my trip home of things I'd like to paint. I will continue to paint and hope to attend another event next year and see how I have progressed." Angela R
