Sketchbook Diary -
Alps Tour
'Following Turner's Footsteps'
With the use of two fully equipped adventure
tour vehicles we shall be following Turner's footsteps through
the Alps. We will be visiting those stunning, timeless views
that captured Turner's imagination years ago.
We will be able to draw and paint, etch, engrave and print in
situ. The printmaking studio van will provide a great mobile
arts base during the tour. Tutition will be available, as always
on an individual basis. Art materials can be purchased on route.
Andrew Forrest of 'MadMarmot' is our guide and host. He will be leading us through some of the most stunning and
unspoilt regions of Europe in a leisurely, social and relaxed
trip onboard his mobile base camp - a Swiss postal service
coach (ideal for mountain roads) that has been beautifully
transformed with bunks to sleep up to 14, with a shower and a
kitchen. continued...
