He enjoys inviting artists, from beginners to professionals, to immerse
themselves deeply in the creative process in these magnificent settings.
More than one hundred artists from all parts of the United States have
participated, with an average of 12 artists in each retreat. See

their experiences.
Philosophy
"The longer I paint the more I realize that the practice of seeing is at the
center of the work of painting. there is something about having two full
weeks in a foreign land which can awaken a possibility for clear seeing. We
are freed from the structure of our daily lives. We have time to focus.
Moving in a different landscape, we hear the music of a different language.
Our senses feel awakened. relaxing into this space and time, we can open
toward the possibility of deep learning. For these reasons I am inviting
artists with similar interests to join me in an opportunity for satisfying
work and spirited conversation in a beautiful and ancient setting."
