Frequently asked questions​

My partner does not paint, is there something for him/her to do?
Yes, we are painting about 6-7 hours a day. Most locations are in villages or places of interest. There is ample time and things for a non-painter to do and explore. The area is very walkable and easy to explore.

How many hours a day will we be painting?
Every day we will be painting a minimum of 6-7 hours. There will also be the option for sunset and night painting. We list daily in the itinerary the estimated hours for each day. We start off lighter and increase the hours as the week progresses.

Is my deposit of $1,000 refundable?
No, we have limited space and need a commitment from each guest.
