Vianna Szabo 's comment on To Bring or Not to Bring- How to prepare for a painting trip to Italy.

Hi Michele,
How wonderful you have been to Italy three times! It is a beautiful country and I cannot wait to go back. I'll send your name to Debra who is hosting the trip. The dates for our upcoming adventure are May 29th-June 6th. Also, there is a link on my website to sign up for my newsletter. I post all my upcoming workshops on there. I would love to teach a plein air workshop in Italy sometime. Teaching landscape in the city of Florence would be tough with a group, but we are scouting out some country side spots for future workshops.
Ireland would be beautiful to paint in. I would imagine there was a whole range of greens there!
I'll post what I pack for my next trip. I am thinking of bringing water soluble oils as well as my pastels. Watercolor is the easiest to pack. I am just not that good of a watercolor painter yet to do Italy justice.
