SUMMARY:Colours of the Mediterranean Sketching Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Indulge in a weekend sketching by the sea along the Vermillion Coast not far from Spain!   This quaint and colourful town is a treasure trove for sketchers\, and during this lovely weekend break we’ll be sketching around the old port and the chateau.  Our sketchbooks will be filled with Catalonian colour as we study boats\, water and the hustle bustle of the busy cafés that surround the beach. \nFor many decades Collioure has remained a very popular destination for artists – rich in history it offers a huge variety of subjects for painting and drawing and in fantastic light. \nThis weekend is suitable for anyone new to urban sketching or artists with some experience but looking for a looser watercolour style. \nTo enquire for further details and register your interest\, please send me an email to annette@sketchingfrance.com \nSuggested hotel a short walk from the station and the port: \n\nHotel Mediterranée
