Our Venice painting taster sessions are great for beginners and experts as we have a relaxed itinerary that allows for a great deal of experimentation and development at all levels. We have carefully chosen an experienced team of painting teachers, many of whom exhibit their art regularly. New to Flavours in 2015 is draughtsman and printmaker Adrian Wiszniewski. Adrian is a leading figure in the revival of figurative painting in a group known as the New Glasgow Boys and will be a great inspiration to our painting guests. 

You will stay in Villa Padova which is set in idyllic Padua, a province near the city of Venice.  Decorated with historic Frescos by some of the regions most famous artists such as Zelotti, Varotari and Palo Veronese, this spacious villa is sure to impress you and the beautiful gardens will provide you with plenty of inspiration for your next painting. The villa also has its own private pool for you to relax. To  find out more about our historic villa read our blog post here and to see more images view our guests’ photo gallery.
