Art Tuition

Lessons in basic drawing and painting are offered 4-5 times a week by your hostess, Joy Swindells, and are structured to meet the needs of individuals. There is no set curriculum as the abilities of students can vary enormously.

Accompanied art visits to local beauty spots will inspire both novice and accomplished artist alike. These two-three hour accompanied trips still allow plenty of time for the student to stay on and paint, to explore the area afterwards, to linger over a drink or two, or to enjoy that most civilised of French customs, lunch in a local restaurant or bar.

You are encouraged to bring your own equipment if you have it, but basic kit can be purchased at Menhir Ty.

Lessons are charged by the session at 30€ per student. You can take one lesson or join in all lessons. Commit as you like. We just ask that you advise at the time of booking (without immediate commitment) whether you are interested in exploring this activity so that we may ensure that time and facilities are set aside for you.
