Plein Air Painting & Sketching in the Cinque Terre with Patti Mollica

Hosted by: Ilchiostro- Arts Workshops in Italy


Join me for a week of painting in one of the most breathtaking places in the world. From pastel-colored villages to the sparkling Mediterranean, Cinque Terre offers endless inspiration.

Each day we’ll paint on location, learning how to simplify what we see into bold shapes, clear values, and expressive color. You’ll practice capturing light and movement quickly, without getting lost in detail.

We’ll stay in a charming Ligurian farmhouse, enjoy local cuisine, and explore the towns and coast together. It’s part workshop, part retreat — designed to nourish both your art and your spirit.
