We had a ball at the last French Art School in June, and now we are preparing for the next one with the dates Aug 26- Sept 5, 2022 start and finish in Paris!

My flights are booked and I will be there. Will you join me? It's the last FRENCH ART SCHOOL tour opportunity for 2022.

 

Quite apart from the stunning 8 days of painting, own room, a French chef who cooks for us, idyllic inspirational location and a day of touring plus gorgeous local country walks, the collection of paintings you will paint and more, I've added a lot some bonuses that will have you painting long after your tour finishes! There's even a Covid safety plan below reducing the risk for you.

 

 

 

In terms of safety in a modern world, we are a small group with loads of living and painting space in one of the most beautiful and least populated parts of France- a place that has been called paradise by my guests since 2016 with many repeat visits from my clients and a visiting Australian journalist who wrote about it as a hidden French rural haven.

 

It's a very natural world and full of French charm and inspiration. Our French chef prepares most of our meals for us.

See below for the COVID safety and value plan in case of a COVID incident.

 

Additional to the tour, I've come up with 6 stunning bonuses at no additional cost to you totalling $2230 to provide ongoing enjoyment, tuition, exceptional art equipment and memories long after your tour!

Here's what KATHERINE and JO from my JUNE FRENCH ART SCHOOL students had to say and what they produced! 

FAQ's
What about Covid safety on the tour?

 

MY COVID GUARANTEE TO SUPPORT YOUR SAFETY AWAY FROM HOME

 

Although we didn't encounter anyone with Covid during our LA FORET DU TEMPLE FRENCH ART SCHOOL TOUR which included a few days together in Paris on the May-June tour,  it's important to discuss what happens IF there was an issue...

Covid is now in all communities in all countries and in our lives everywhere. We can take precautions in order to enjoy our holiday to the full.

 

We have several houses on French Art School and only a small group capped at 6 students as a maximum number of guests for the moment so lots of personal space and more rooms than we need when I set a small group get together.

 

A professional chef prepares the food which is plated. Sanitiser gel is included for your use and optional masks supplied. Rooms are ventilated with windows allowing fresh air flow. We are in a quiet rural hamlet for the majority of time.

 

 

 

We do some painting en plein air which is painting out doors.

And we don't mix with many people other than the group throughout and our visiting chef. 

 

THE SPACE AVAILABLE TO ISOLATE IN COMFORT IF NEED BE

 

Because we have three houses to access in the event of someone having Covid I can separate the group, and the group can continue painting whilst anyone who tests positive can rest and isolate in lovely surrounds including a garden and rooms with views with food delivered to them. They can even paint or go for walks because its a quiet rural hamlet. I have an excellent art library!

 

 

NO NEED TO MISS OUT ON ANY LEARNING

 

I will also be capturing any lessons we do so if you miss anything you will be able to do it from home later with links supplied. You also have the BONUS 10 lessons pack to do after the tour to continue with the inspiration.

 

I have two major FRENCH ART SCHOOL art lessons  and the how to,  already on video sequence as a back up for you all. Although I doubt we will need them as I intend to demo in person throughout!

 

 

 

ADDITIONAL ACCOMMODATION OFFERED AT FRENCH ART SCHOOL IF REQUIRED FOR UP TO 5 DAYS AFTER THE TOUR AT NO CHARGE TO YOU FOR ACCOMMODATION IF ISOLATION IS REQUIRED

 

You are welcome to stay on if need be for up to 5 additional days extra at no accommodation charge if required after testing positive with a PCR test to prove it's Covid during the time of the tour.

 

Up to 5 days additional accommodation is provided for you with the amount of days ascertained from when you were identified as being unwell with Covid and adding 5 days from that point which is the isolation time required currently in France. We will follow the specific guidelines available appropriate to the time. If you think you'd like to add 5 days anyway to relax, you are welcome to ask me for a quote and to do that as a tour extension.

 

 

 

 

FULL TRAVEL INSURANCE RECOMMENDED TO COVER ANY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES IF YOU GET COVID

 

You will need to cover your own medical costs for any medicine from the pharmacy or doctor for helpful items such as cold and flu caps, throat gargle or throat spray and Panadol or whatever you regard as useful which you could bring with you as a precaution, PCR test or tests ( approx 40 euros each),train transfers different to the tour trains booked for you, and local transport outside of the tour offer to get supplies and manage any aspects that you may or may not need if we require a driver to assist, medicine and/or additional catering for days after the tour if you require it- likely to be minimal costs which can be receipted so you can claim on your insurance if appropriate.

 

Full travel insurance cover is recommended. If your insurance covers you, in the event of you getting Covid you may prefer to be reimbursed by your insurance company instead of accepting the offered hospitality and instead make alternative plans which you are welcome to do but there are no refunds from FRENCH ART SCHOOL for any of the program missed or not consumed so please check very carefully on your insurance as to what they will or won't reimburse. They generally cover costs incurred is my understanding, not to replace the experience and reimburse you for the tour. And that's why its great I offer you options.

 

It's always best to ask the questions at the time of buying your insurance so you know what you would do in the event so you are prepared. If need be.

 

 

MASKS OR NO MASKS?

 

Generally there are at present no rules in place for wearing masks indoors or outdoors in France. However, I recommend the wearing of masks in Paris indoors such as in a  museum or shopping  or in taxis or public transport to reduce risks. I will keep everyone updated on the rules if they change.

 

Both my daughter and my sister live in France and I am kept updated as well as being able to check regulations online and from my recent 8 weeks in France I learned how it all works at present. We are not staying in heavily touristed areas which cuts out a lot of risk.

 

I recommend being fully vaccinated although there are no longer rules around this in France. I travelled having had a flu shot as well as triple vaccination.

 

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU GET COVID BEFORE THE TOUR & CAN'T JOIN US?

 

Providing you provide me straight away with your PCR test proving you are Covid positive, and the timing is such that you cannot join us a day or two later,  and its acceptable evidence that makes it clear you have Covid in a time frame where you cannot travel and be with us, I am happy to defer your tour to a time when you can join me in 2023 however there are no refunds when you cancel your participation. Payment in full is required 4 weeks in advance. It's up to you to get yourself back to France to participate with me at a later date or take up the online training offer. 

 

If you prefer, you can exchange the value of the tour that has been paid for the same value of Blooms Online Programs and training so you don't have to wait for another tour set of dates and continue your learning and painting experience from home!

 

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE TEACHER GETS COVID DURING THE TOUR?

 

There are two ways I can continue to teach if I was to get Covid which is considered to be like having the flu in France. I have had a Covid exoperience and I was able to function fully throughout. However not to minimise it...

 

We would discuss this as a group and decide which was preferred according to our current situation with either for these choices for any days affected;

 

-I would be able to demo from a separated ventilated space that keeps you safe and you can still follow the tuition. ie I paint and demo from outside the studio in the courtyard whilst the students are in the studio watching through the windows.

 

 

-alternatively I have detailed videos which can be run on zoom to the studio space while the students paint and learn from the close up videos or live painting with me in a different house belonging to French Art School.

 

I could also adjust the schedule to include additional touring and arrange for the chauffeur to take the group out for sight seeing until I rejoin the group.

 

This would be conferred with the group at the time to decide the best use of time and maximum enjoyment for everyone. The chef could also teach a cooking class!

 

Generally 5 days is the isolation time in France. We have 9 days assigned to paint and tour within the tour dates. There are specialised painting exercises and paintings already recorded on video specific to French Art School which would help you to continue your painting that can take place without me being close to you in the room however hovering on zoom where I can see your progress and provide painting support and instruction if that was the worst case scenario for a few days.

 

The Covid plan will be kept updated and reissued if any changes take place and confirmed in the week before the tour. I seek a situation that supports you the client and assures you will get your value. Its likely that the August tour will be a very small group so its an ideal time to come along.

 

It's wonderful to get back into travel and we can do it if we plan to do it safely and have a no fail plan in place that offers you support and value.
