Leona Brown’s Art Workshop
in
Moulin de la Roque, Southern France

LOCATED IN THE HEART OF PROVENCE we will be in an artist's paradise. We just have to drive down any road and see olive groves, vineyards, fields of brilliant purple lavender, bright red poppies, yellow sunflowers, and ochre tinted wheat.

MOULIN DE LA ROQUE is the perfect location. It is just minutes from scores of quaint picturesque villages like Saint-Rémy de Provence, Avignon, Gordes, and Aix. Leona will love taking advantage of the wonderfully colorful daily markets in these towns as well as studying the rich ancient architecture, the cafés, flowers, awnings and umbrellas, all so characteristic of the area.

THE SEASIDE is also just 60 miles away from the Estate.
The Côte d'Azur fishing village of Cassis has adorned more than one artist's canvas. You will love its colorful fishing and sailing boats in harbor and unique multicolored villas dotting the steep hillside as it drops to the sea. Also close by are museums (Van Gogh and Cézanne), prestigious art schools, and hundreds of galleries.

THE ESTATE itself is particularly well suited for workshops. Baron Fallon has designed each guest house with workshops in mind. There are single beds in each bedroom making it easy for participants to share rooms. Toilets are separate, and most of the bedrooms have a wash-basin for convenience. Participants love sharing the kitchens, living areas, and terraces as they make great gathering places to share ideas over a café au lait or a glass of great wine.

A UNIQUE FEATURE of the estate is two indoor meeting rooms ideal for teaching and demonstrations. There are plenty of large windows in the main meeting room. It is so open that each participant will feel as if they are outside. And when painting plein air, the estate itself and the adjacent village of Noves are so picturesque that we could spend the entire workshop just painting there.
