*** UPDATE SOLD OUT!! In less than 24hrs!!****** so excited to see you next yr in SPAIN!!!you can get on the waitlist if there is a cancellation but for now its sold out! 

Yup thats right I am teaching Watercolor in Spain - May 28-June 4th 2023!! 

I am giving my Patreons the first dibs on this for a week then I open it up to the public so grab your spot ASAP before its gone!!!! I believe my last retreat that sold out has a waiting list of 27 ppl so I imagine this will be gone fast!

Join me  on an exciting art retreat in Spain. Stay at an amazing estate rented exclusively for the week-long art retreat in the heart of the first UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in the South of Spain. In addition to painting alongside ME every day, you’ll also visit the spectacular “pueblos blancos” of El Gastor and Setenil de las Bodegas, paint in the dramatic town of Ronda, and indulge in tapas and wine tastings. Enjoy exquisite chef-made vegetarian Andalusian and Spanish cuisine paired with some of the best wines in the region.

We are going to have sooo much fun painting and creating from the most beautiful scenery and surroundings. I have seen what these small towns look like and they are so amazing- every corner is a painting waiting to happen! Who doesn't love having Tapas and a wine tasting as well?? :) 

The retreat venue has 5 pools!! and a tennis court and all the rooms are singular so if your someone who likes their own sleeping space- this is for you! 

I do have to tell you like I did in the video there is walking hills involved in the excursions and at the venue- so if you have mobility issues this would not be the retreat for you. Uprek has some videos posted of this place on their Instagram so go check it out and you will see how others have hiked these beautiful surroundings and hilly white washed towns. It feels so sunny and warm that how you could not just love it.

The link to learn all about the retreat and to book your spot is right here:

This retreat is limited to only 17 guests!!  the small amount of guests means more quality one on one time with you!! So sign up quickly to reserve your spot!!!  I would love to see you there- its so much better to learn in person than online.

****I’m so happy that there is a risk-free Covid-19 return policy. This retreat is fully refundable if you can’t make it due to the virus.****

This will be perfect for all skill levels; the exercises will be flexible from beginners to professions. 🧑‍🎨

Wish I could go! Bad timing for my garden!

This looks like an incredible once in a lifetime trip! Once again, you've out done yourself Ellen. If I didn't have mobility issues I would find a way to make this happen - especially since I speak spanish! I can't wait to hear all about it and I'm green with envy.

Have fun everyone, it sounds lovely.

watching for US retreat. Hope that happens soon!

Ellen Crimi-Trent

if I do something in the US it would be more like a 2 day workshop than retreat- I would need a company to do all the work like Uptrek and they will not do them here they told me its not cost effective- US too pricey they tried in upstate NY and it didn't sell because it was too expensive.

Your retreat in Spain sounds soooo AWESOME! I too speak Spanish, Unfortunately I will have been back only 3 weeks from the trip to Ireland that I’m taking my 3 kids on…. I will wait and watch for your next retreat and then try to be one of the first bookings!!! I know everyone who gets to go will have an AMAZING time!!!
