Painting and Drawing Course at the SANTUARIO DELLA MADONNA DEL CAMINE
Carmelite Monastery of San Felice del Benaco
on the southwestern shore of Lake Garda
Enjoy a few relaxing days on the beautiful shores of Lake Garda in a welcoming atmosphere.
We’ll be staying in the monastery’s guesthouse, which is directly connected to the pilgrimage church. It features a painting studio, a beautiful monastery garden with ancient olive trees, and a large terrace with tables and chairs—an ideal spot for painting and drawing outdoors. Short theory sessions and individual guidance will support you in all aspects of creative work. In the small village of San Felice del Benaco, just a few minutes’ walk away, we’ll meet daily to sketch typical Italian street scenes and travel memories. The Santuario della Madonna del Carmine monastery is about two kilometers from the lakeshore.

Der weitläufige Naturpark, der das Haus umgibt, zusammen mit einem kleinen Kiefernwald und einem Olivenhain, bietet einen einzigartigen Rahmen zum Zeichnen und Malen in enger Verbindung mit Natur und Einfachheit. Die Ufer des Gardasees sind nur 500 Meter vom Gebäude entfernt, der "Guardiola"-Strand von San Felice mit seinem klaren, azurblauen Wasser ist über einen kleinen Weg in nur zehn Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar.
Die Zimmer, die sich zwischen dem ersten und dritten Stock befinden und auch mit dem Aufzug erreichbar sind, sind alle mit Klimaanlage (Klasse A+++) ausgestattet und bieten einen Blick auf den See, den Innenhof oder den Park, je nach Ausrichtung. Alle Zimmer nun mit neuen schallisolierten Türen mit elektronischen Schlössern und Duschkabinen im privaten Bad ausgestattet.

The course offered a maximum range of theory and practice for various artistic ambitions: Perspective, portraiture, urban sketching and more. You could devote yourself to your preferences and try out new things. The lecturer supported and encouraged everyone individually, regardless of their level. Her art therapy training also provided an excellent background for the group dynamics.
