2010 Art Tour
Montfaucon Tours Presents: Arts in the Languedoc
Watercolor Painting in the South of France with Artist Barbara Jackson
 |
May 15 to May 29, 2010
Rich in history, as well as in natural beauty, the Languedoc region is situated at the foot of the Pyrenees Mountains in Southern France. Here, artists will find a wealth of visual inspiration; Cathar castle ruins cling to rugged peaks while far below, winding rivers, lush pasturelands and vineyards stretch towards the horizon. Ancient villages, with narrow cobbled streets, half timbered medieval houses, and gothic church spires await the artist’s brush. Watercolorists will enjoy two full weeks of sketching and painting in this fascinating part of France.
Locations close to our home base in the town of Limoux will provide daily opportunities for sketching and painting. Whether a five minute walk across the bridge into the heart of the town, or a short ride by private van to a nearby site, there is no end to subject matter. Occasional daytrips will take us farther, to discover other areas of artistic interest. |

Accommodations at Montfaucon Residence
Limoux, France
The lovely Montfaucon Residence in the town of Limoux, France will provide deluxe accommodations for our stay in the Languedoc. Situated at river’s edge, this meticulously restored, 800-year-old building was home to the guardians of the medieval city’s bridged entryway. Views from the rooms and the terrace offer myriad possibilities for sketching and painting; the bridge itself, the red tiled roofs and colorful houses across the Aude River, are all splendid subjects for future works of art.
The spacious rooms of the Montfaucon are perfection in both design and comfort. Historic elements of the twelfth century building have been restored and retained while contemporary conveniences have been thoughtfully integrated into the overall plan.
The lower level “cave” has been made into a professionally designed studio, ideal for demonstrations, reviews and indoor work. |
