I am British (but I speak French too) and I live in Languedoc (now known as Occitanie), an area many consider to be 'the real' south of France.

In my online workshops I'll help you find ways to embrace your own creativity, and find and develop your own artistic style. Whilst learning all sorts of sketching and watercolour techniques, you'll pick up plenty of nuggets about 'la vie française' (or lafranglaise!) as well.

Why not add a taste of France to your sketchbook?!
- No flight tickets or travel insurance required
- Relax and have fun doing something JUST FOR YOU!
- Learn more about sketching and using watercolour
- Get feedback & ask questions at any stage of the course
- Connect with a friendly community of aspiring artists in a private Facebook group

I attended a Paris weekend earlier this year with Annette Morris Art. It was fantastic, we really explored Paris and captured lots of memories in our sketching. Highly recommended!

Annette is a great teacher since she explains everything clearly and simply. She imparts a sense of fun and helps even beginners feel self-confident. I have done an online class, as well as an in-person class on location, with Annette. Both were excellent!

I enjoyed it very much. I am familiar with Annette’s teaching style and so I was able to sketch along, but I think that would be possible if not familiar. The follow-up video allows another attempt at the learner’s pace and also further practice.
Etchr Mini Workshop - November 2021
Thanks so much for yesterday, it was very enlightening, and fun.
The tips are great and I’ll refer to them as I hopefully continue my sketching. I look forward to doing another session with you.

Annette is an ideal teacher for both beginners, and experienced sketchers and water-colourists. She’s patient, encouraging and suggests new techniques to try. She helps you discover your own style which is so refreshing ! I learnt so much and had so much fun. Thank you Annette for a brilliant sketching holiday and for sharing your love of Languedoc with us. I will be back next year all the way from Sydney Australia.

I had a wonderful week sketching with Annette last year. As a newcomer to sketching she gave me huge confidence and invaluable help and encouragement when needed. I know the others would agree with me. I have become a very active sketcher thanks to Annette and have wonderful memories of long lunches, lots of laughs and of exploring her corner of France.

Thank you very much for this great weekend. I’ve learned a lot and it was fun!
Laure M. - October 2025
Thank you for stretching us, Annette. A completely new style (Faux Stained Glass) for me. What a wonderful day.
Jacky I. - April 2019
Many thanks to Annette for a great introduction to sketching last Saturday in Montpellier. A day packed with information, advice and encouragement. A much needed boost to my confidence. Can’t wait for the next one!
Naomi B. - March 2020
I’m a novice, and have been to some of Annette’s classes recently. She’s a kind and patient teacher. If you want to try sketching in a supportive space, I can recommend Annette’s sessions.
Celia B. - February 2020
Fantastic day Annette. I feel inspired to sketch at will again.
Deborah S. - May 2019
Many, many thanks for a most delightful morning which, even in the freezing grey-sky day, was positive, fun, and very rewarding. You are, indeed, a wonderful and remarkable teacher!!!
Sharon S. - April 2023
I attended Annette workshop in Beziers this weekend and absolutely loved it. I am a beginner and at first found the painting subjects very challenging. Annette provided a structured method on how to approach the subjects and guided us along the way. It was rewarding to be able to complete the paintings.
Sophie G-B ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - April 2025
I would go anywhere in the world with Annette’s sketch group! Such a magical and unique experience getting to explore a city through the lens of sketching with people from all over the world. From logistics to art instruction, Annette does a wonderful job leading the workshop. I learned so many new things and I will undoubtedly sketch and see the world in a new way after this trip. Thank you for the wonderful experience. Unforgettable!
Lauren R. - May 2025

Finding Your Personal Sketching Style
My aim is not to teach you a particular style, a particular method or even to paint one particular view or object.
