About Us.

AZENART PAINTING HOLIDAYS is a travel agency which specialises in artistic travel, also known as painting holidays, art holidays, art vacations, and drawing holidays. We design and deliver art holidays for painters, or people who enjoy drawing, and people interested in discovering art. Participants can be complete beginners, false beginners (people who have painted a little before), intermediate (improvers), or confirmed artists.

Our motivations. We aspire to give people who enjoy doing art and travelling a fully enjoyable week of painting at fabulous art sites where they will also sightsee. (Drawing is also a medium you can choose.)

Our pluses.

1. Our destinations. When going on one of our painting holidays, you are sure to be in the heart of the art close to where we paint for the entire week, getting loads of eye-candy without long commuting. Our destinations are top must-see spots.

   Venice, Capri, Amalfi-Capri-Pompeii, Tuscany, Cinque Terre, Sicily (Palermo), Sicily (Catania), Rome, South of France Riviera (Nice), Lake Como, Chateaux in France, Brittany, Paris, Santorini (Greece).

   We choose specific places to bring our groups within these destinations where painting and tutoring can be done in serenity.

2. Our prices! We offer fun painting holidays for a great quality for value.

3. A fun combination of painting and sightseeing. With AZENART PAINTING HOLIDAYS, you are not only getting painting holidays with fabulous painting sites, but you will also greatly enjoy sightseeing in the magical places where we will take you.

   Please note: Our art trips are designed to give you free time to rest, shop, visit cultural areas etc.

4. Our excursions: Our painting vacations are punctuated with some day trips where you will go to top of the notch painting / drawing spots within our destinations. More on our excursions on our painting holidays page in our top menu.

5. Our multi-medium art tutors: On Azenart painting holidays, you can choose to paint or draw. You can choose from diverse painting mediums: Watercolours, acrylic, oil, gouache, pastels, drawing.

6. Accommodation: Ideally we like to be in the quiet spots about fifteen minutes away from central places. That way, everyone is rested, and close enough to get to terrific painting spots without long commuting time. We try and choose houses / villas over condos, whenever possible, as these are more likely to have gardens or terraces to have painting sessions at.

7. Our group sizes. For optimised management and coziness, our groups are small, typically 6 to 10 guests + the tutor.

Are you ready for Azenart painting holidays? If you recognise yourself in what follows, consider yourself ready to join us!

Do you like traveling and painting (or drawing)? Do you ever feel like people around you don't fully measure your artistic capacity or interest? Like it's a secondary matter? Well, when you're on a painting break, you are in an art cocoon for a week, where everyone speaks your 'language', the language of creation, of art. No need to be a connoisseur or an art historian. You and the other participants will be like-minded when it comes to art. They’ll see, much like you probably do, everything around them as “paintable”, and look at the surroundings with the very same enchantment you have when seeing colours, shapes, reflections of water or objects... People on art holidays often ask themselves, "Why hadn't I travelled like this before?" Some art travellers are afraid of joining groups alone but they quickly realise that most participants go on art holidays by themselves, soon to make friends, and often end up keeping in contact.
