Painting Holiday, Mallorca - Spain
Itinerary
Some of our days:
Arrival day
Leaving Palma we arrive in Port de Soller in time for a pre-dinner
wander along the sea front.
Gardens and groves
The Archduke's palace has terraces, gardens, grey green olive
groves and a mock temple perched high above this Mallorcan Costa
Brava – a magnificent vista leading the eye along the length of
this wild northern coast.
Deia
Gathered around and below its church, this small village with its
terraced fields and olive groves has long been popular with
landscape artists. Picasso lived here and Robert Graves lies buried
in its small churchyard.
Free day
This is an untutored day and your chance to visit Soller town on
the wooden tram or take the old train through the mountains to
Palma with its busy port, narrow back streets and beautiful
cathedral.
Pueblo picturesque
Radiating from its
square where we lunch, a network of stepped streets and alleys
takes you around this most pretty of villages. With high views on
one side and low angles from a tranquil grove on the other, there
is no lack of subjects!
Fabulous Alfabia
Around a reliable water supply Moorish Viziers created this
sheltered oasis of light and shade beneath palms and the scented
vines of wisteria and jasmine. We picnic and paint to the
accompaniment of gurgling fountains and a similarly reliable supply
of fresh juice.
Beside the sea
Cala de Deia is one of few places on this wild coast where you can
paint, picnic, bathe and visit a café just yards from an emerald
sea. Its antique boatsheds and slipways above the swashing waves
conjure up images of pirates and perhaps even memories of old
Cornwall.
Departure day
After an early breakfast our coach will return you to Palma airport
for 10.00.
Note: This is a selection of the many options available. Weather
conditions, group interests and the individual tutor will influence
the final itinerary.
