Antibes and the Côte d’Azure
The special light, warm Mediterranean
colours, interesting rocky coastline
and verdant vegetation on the Cap
d’Antibes and Cap Ferrat, elegant villas,
grand Chateaux and the beautiful
old fortified town of Antibes, with the
Alps rising in the background, have
appealed to artists over the years and
make the French Riviera one of Lachlan
Goudie’s favourite places to paint.

The painting programme
Each day will be spent painting on the Cap
d’Antibes using local buses for greater freedom
to access the many different painting locations.
There will be one day trip to Cap Ferrat to
sketch in the gardens of the Villas Ephrussi
de Rothschild and Kérylos and fashionable
Beaulieu. Lachlan will encourage you to paint
every day and will assist students with an
organic approach to techniques. He is very
happy to show individuals how to resolve
problems and where appropriate he will do
a demonstration, although there will be no
group demonstrations. Lachlan will be
sketching and working in gouache and
watercolour but all media are welcome. This
painting holiday is ideal for intermediate and
more experienced students. You may choose
to work alongside Lachlan or independently.
