Explore Silk Painting in France in 2014

A few years ago when I was teaching a workshop at La Cascade in Durfort, France we were introduced to the wonderfully talented silk painting artist, Ann Mason. My students had the fabulous opportunity to spend an afternoon painting with Ann in her workshop. She taught them all about silk painting and then with her  guidance they each painted their own unique scarf. They returned after their class with Ann thrilled with their experience and you can see them all in the picture here looking very happy and wearing their scarves.
If you would like to spend a week learning silk painting in the charming village of Durfort in 2014,  Ann Mason and her son Steve are  now offering a week long workshop at La Cascade, June 30- July 7, 2014.  You'll not only learn about silk painting and create your own paintings on silk but you'll also tour the beautiful area and enjoy the relaxing country French 18th century restored home, La Cascade.
