workshops in 2025 planning a little more patience, we're fine-tuning our courses; see you soon! Our programs allow for a complete 4 days immersion within a group of 9 people sharing the same passion.

Each stay begins on a Sunday around a welcome drink: an opportunity for the artist and the other participants to introduce themselves. You will also discover the schedule planned by the artist and the organization of the stay. The course will start the next day on Monday and end on Thursday at the end of the day, after 6 p.m. The artist will specify a list of materials to bring with you.

TY GOANAG Nestled in the heart of the village of St Pern, in Ille et Vilaine, TY GOANAG was originally, in the 17th century, a priory, which brought together a few monks; In 1872, an extension was built to create the village presbytery. In the ownership of the municipality the property fell into disrepair and ruin. It was in 2012 that Sophie and Patrice fell in love with this property; they bought it with the objective of restoring it to its original beauty. Passionate about history, architecture and decoration, Patrice renovated this old building with his own hands and more than ten years of work were needed to restore it to its former glory. Stone after stone, Patrice has managed to preserve the authenticity of the place, while providing the modern comfort that is essential today. Sophie and Patrice will be on hand to answer all your requests and make your stay a moment of pure happiness.

Meals What could be more convivial than sharing a meal with friends! The stay is organized with half-board. This includes breakfast and dinner, which are included in the price. Dinners are prepared together using fresh ingredients that I provide – for a convivial moment in the kitchen. The menus are vegetarian (with occasional eggs, cheese, or dairy products, depending on the day). As for lunches, they are not included in the price and are the responsibility of the participants. Depending on our outings, we might eat at a crêperie, a restaurant, or opt for sandwiches or mixed salads. It will all depend on the places we visit throughout the day.

"For me, painting is the best medium for expressing my deepest feeling about how and what I think and feel about portraying the beauties of nature. My work demonstrates my in-depth understanding of painting, largely in watercolor. Watercolor is the best medium for expressing my deepest feeling about how and what I think and feel about portraying the beauties of nature. My themes vary depending on how challenging and inspiring the subject appeals to my creativity. I love to paint subjects that attract me and finding a subject is not difficult - the subject seems to find me. Observing, walking, sketching, taking photos- -all these offer creative opportunities. I vary my application of the medium depending on the subject at hand. This could either be loose washes or very fuzzy with a lot of details or a combination of lost and found edges as in soft and hard edges. I allow my creativity to flow throughout the working process without restricting myself to any reference materials either from life, a photo or my imagination. I always try to establish a connection between my works and my viewers to enable them to tell their own stories from my works. I love to paint people and places to show my varied audience the other side of the world I live in." .............AWARDS/HONORS/ PRIZES:............ • First African watercolorist to Receive the Saint Yrieix Town Prize Cash Award at the 18ème Salon international de l'Aquarelle du 22 juillet au 20 août 2023 France • First African watercolorist to Win the 1st LUGAR Prize at 2o FESTIVAL DE LA ACUARELA DE SANTO DOMINGO, CHILE, 2023 •First African watercolorist to receive the 1st Cash Prize Winner at the 15e Festival International Confluences, Aiguillion, France 2022 •First African Watercolourist to receive the 1st Award Cash Prize Winner of Prix des Peintres du Moulin (Painters of the Mill Award) at the Troisieme Biennale Internationale d’ Aquarelle de Coquelles BIAC, France 2022 • 2nd Placed Winner in the Holbein Watercolor Competition, Turkey 2020 •Honourable Mentioned Award at the 1st International Watercolor Biennale 2018.

Jayson YEOH Workshop from july 7 to 11, 2024 "Space is an endless construction from countless moments, the artistic process is endless. One moment leads to another. I can't stop painting." Sophia Rodionov (b. Estonia, Tallin) is an artist based in Israel, working mainly in watercolor and mixed media. Sophia's paintings are inspired by experiences and impressions from her own life through the concept of pause from Japanese culture or, in terms of quantum science, antimatter from the interpretation of the universe. Sophia's deep interest in and love of nature has an impact on her choice of subjects and her artistic language, using organic forms on the borderline between reality and abstraction. Sophia believes that art is a reflection of other realms of human reality both visible and invisible, while art is also the language that allows us to think and create new essences. Since 2019, Sophia has been a co-representative of the Israeli team of the IWS (International Watercolor Society), participating in and hosting watercolor events in Israel, online and internationally. Her watercolors have been widely exhibited around the world, in Europe, the United States and Japan.
