Painting Holiday with Artist Peter Brown
British Artist Peter Brown at work
Join artist Peter Brown painting in Florence on this special holiday in Italy for experienced and intermediate painters.
Peter is a member of the NEAC (New English Art Club) and in 2006 became the first Artist in Residence at the Savoy Hotel, London. In 2008 he won the Prince of Wales Award for Portrait Drawing. Popularly known as “Pete the Street” from his practice of working on location in all weathers, he has developed a vigorous en plein air style, and happily interacts with passers-by while at work. He is a very talented figurative artist, best known for his detailed and atmospheric depictions of street scenes in Bath, London, Oxford, Cambridge and India. Pete is an excellent guest artist to work alongside. Learn by example and from some individual guidance. He is helpful and tremendously inspirational and you gain an insight in to his philosophy of how he works. Pete hosted a group of artists to Arles in 2015 and thoroughly enjoyed it. He is very excited about painting the classical city Florence. Publications include My Indian Travels and Brown’s Bath and Oil Sketches, APV DVD. Follow Peter Brown’s ‘Pete The Street’ blog to see where he’s working and what he’s up to.

‘Pete The Street’
Pete will be working in charcoal, oil and pastels. The informal style of this holiday will not include tuition, demonstrations or critiques and so is most suitable for painters with some experience. You cannot stay in Florence without seeing the great masterpieces of Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, Botticelli and Caravaggio in the Galleria degli Uffizi and Michelangelo’s David in the Galleria dell’Accademia, so these visits are included. You will be looked after by an accompanying travel escort, who will organise dinners each evening in nearby restaurants. Flights are direct to Florence on British Airways.
