Summary

Spend four days with fellow painting students and your instructor, Frank Koebsch, in a scenic gem far away from the hustle and bustle. Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of colors on an exclusive painting retreat focused on watercolors of flowers, blossoms, perennials, and trees. Spend an inspiring time amidst the picturesque setting of an idyllic park, the centerpiece of which is the enchanting Landsdorf Manor in the hinterland of the Baltic Sea.

When the weather is nice, nature itself is our studio. The spaciousness and diversity of the grounds create the feeling that, upon entering the estate, you’re stepping into a world of your own and leaving everyday life behind. It’s the perfect setting to relax and draw inspiration from the variety of colors and shapes. We’ll set up our easels amidst the old trees and lush flower beds. A beech and fir forest, rare solitary trees, a perennial garden, an orchard meadow, pastureland, a kitchen garden, and a large pond await us. You’re invited to stroll through the park, discover a variety of subjects, and paint en plein air.
