01 / Friday evening
We began with pattern.
On Friday evening, guests explored autumn colours and created abstract patterns with Anna’s guidance. We enjoyed wine, followed our own rhythm, and left the canvases unfinished for the night.

Friday evening to Saturday morning
A little time away.
Something beautiful to bring home.
Our first art retreat brought us together at Englewood Villas for an evening of colour, pattern and wine. We left our canvases unfinished overnight and returned after breakfast with fresh eyes. Two guided sessions, one autumn artwork, and time to enjoy the process.
The sessions were designed for beginners. No painting experience needed.

One canvas.
Two moments.
02 / Saturday morning
Then autumn took shape.
After breakfast on Saturday, we returned to our canvases and added simple autumn branches and leaves. Anna guided beginner-friendly brush techniques to bring each painting together into a finished artwork to take home.
