Marni Maree's Art
watercolor and oil artist, teacher
Join me for a watercolor-focused journey through Palermo and the surrounding coastal towns and countryside of Sicily, where each day offers a new setting to observe, sketch, and paint. Designed for artists of all levels, this program combines guided instruction with on-location practice, allowing you to build skills while working directly from the landscapes, architecture, and daily life around you.
Come celebrate a new season of creativity with us! This is an intimate, intensive Watercolor Sketching program, close to home, with Marni Maree and Ilchiostro.
Our goal is to pamper you with elegant yet cozy accommodations at the charming Fox and Hound Bed and Breakfast, and to delight you with fabulous dining experiences in some of Bucks County’s wonderful local restaurants. Nestled amid rolling countryside, historic villages, covered bridges, river views, and storybook farms, Bucks County offers endless inspiration at every turn. Each day will be devoted to immersive, in-person instruction with Marni, surrounded by the region’s rich textures, luminous light, and timeless beauty
