Workshop in Holland!
A Dutch Workshop !
4-12 September 2014...get ready!
This
workshop will consist of nine days, including five days of painting,
one day for a museum visit, and two free days. The two free days (on
which you may sight-see, paint, or do whatever else may appeal), and the
museum day (where I will accompany the class to talk about the work
we'll see), will be scheduled once we are in Holland. This will enable
us to have some flexibility with the weather.

The
specific locations within Holland have not yet been decided, but will
be shortly. It is my hope that we will paint both in villages and in the
countryside. We may also paint one day in town.
Royal
Talens, the maker of Rembrandt oil colors, has suggested that they
would be interested in being of assistance to us in Holland. Their U.S.
rep, Kyle Richardson, has mentioned some interesting things which we
will discuss further.
As of now, we have a quorum for the trip, with a small number of additional places available. Please let me know immediately if you would like to join us.

Transportation to and from the Netherlands, car rental, accommodations, meals,
travel insurance, and other incidentals are the responsibility of each
student.

Many
students combine workshop trips with other travel and we've found that
allowing students to make their own reservations for transportation is
best. Likewise, students seem to have different ideas about what they
would prefer in terms of lodging, etc. Thus it's proven most
satisfactory for students to suit their own needs. If you should wish to share a room with another student, let me know and I will put you in touch.

Regarding
car rentals: public transportation in the Netherlands is very good. Our
inter-city travel will be done by train. But for local travel into the
countryside, cars will, regrettably, be required. If you would like to
share car rental expense with other students, please let me know and I
will put you in touch.

Lodging
prices cover a large range. It's possible that Royal Talens will be
able to get a special rate for us. I will notify registrants as soon as
this is determined.
Materials lists, equipment lists, etc., will be sent to registrants as soon as their deposits have been received.
I
look forward to painting with you in September! Please don't hesitate
to write if you should have any questions (dbjurney@verizon.net)
