Dreaming of Orvieto, Italy, where I willl be teaching my workshop in mid September of this year. If Italy is one of the places you've wanted to go, or go back to, and if spending time creating art with new friends, in addition to seeing the sights of Orvieto with seasoned guides, Bill and Kristi Steiner, who will make this trip a once in a lifetime memory - then this may be the trip for you!
We will divide our leisurely days creating artwork in our visual journals, eating local slow-food, sipping luscious wine, and visiting with fellow classmates, as well as taking excursions in the area, seeing the sights, breathing the smells, taking in the sounds and ambiance that is Orvieto, that is Italy.
If you have held a dream, like me, to go to Italy, to have your every traveling need attended to, to be pampered as well as creative, this may be just the trip for you. What do you think - join me?
Ohhhhhh you darn artists and your temptations!!! I think Misty just referenced this same one for Fall of 2010? I am starting the trip fund now...I can't wait to take a peek at what you are in store for Katie...looks like a dream.

Every season holds something different in Orvieto. Fall brings chestnuts, truffles, and harvesting of grapes. The vineyard visit is likely to allow us to see them bringing in the grapes, which, if you haven't tasted them before they become wine, are amazing. Cristian at one of our favorite trattorias, More d'Arrone serves an absolutely wonderful chestnut soup. La Polomba Trattoria has a luscious truffle pasta. Until you taste the simple Italian food made from the freshest ingredients, there is no way to know what you have been missing. It is going to be a great week Katie. We are so thrilled to have you leading a trip with us! Bill Steiner
