Interesting Offering

This announcement landed in my inbox yesterday. Really short notice, but it looks like a great opportunity for the adventuresome plein air painter with a flexible schedule.

Can these prices be real? Of course, you have to add travel and lodging and daily food, but the program itself looks almost too good to be true.

Maybe at least something to think about for next year...
