Amalfi Coast
ITALY
Sep 25 - Oct 2, 2008
The 'Costiera Amalfitana' is an area of sensational coastal scenery of limestone cliffs, serpentine roads and terraced lemon groves. Hillside villages and remote monasteries have long been connected by a series of ancient footptaths which are popular excursion routes for walkers.
Visitors are rewarded with stunning views of the Meditteranean coastline whhose 'Lattari' mountains rise nearly 5000 feet steeply from the deep blue sea. Wildflowers decorate the hillsides in spring and cyclamen carpet the woods in autumn.
Daily, you will have several options - painting, sketching or photographing with Jann; shopping and touring or just relaxing at your own pace. You may paint in any medium. The choice will be yours. Non-painters welcome!
