Cortona Painting Trip

Our Fall painting trip to Cortona was a success on so many levels! We ate delicious meals, learned some new techniques in painting, expanded both our circle of friends and our appreciation of Italian culture. The Borgo, our hotel, was elegant, picturesque, tranquil, and the staff very attentive! I am very thankful to to Sheila, who organized our program, and I am grateful to have had such an interesting and fun group of painters along! It was truly one of the highlights of my year.
