'In the footsteps of Matisse '
South of France, Vence (Cote D'Azur)
with artist and tutor Louise Waugh
June 27 - July 4 2020
A delight for those who would enjoy the tranquillity and peace of Matisse's garden and villa in Vence where he lived and worked for five years. The Villa has three studios equipped with easels and boards and beautiful views over the old town which is only a ten minute walk away. This was such a success I decided to book it for another year. The Chapel of the Rosary which he designed and famous for the stained glass windows is across the road and the museum in town has a fine collection of Matisse's work as well as the Maeght Foundation nearby in St Paul de Vence which houses many major art collections and shows. Further galleries can be visited in Nice and the surrounding area. Vence has a swimming pool and the coast is only 30 minutes away.
