‘VIEWS OF RUSSBOROUGH’ with Dave West

Join Artist Dave West for an intensive 4-day workshop drawing and painting the magnificent Russborough House in County Wicklow.

From the Schoolhouse for Art studio within the grounds of Russborough there will be a combination of studio-based and plein-air work, each day focusing on a different aspect including the outbuildings, farm sheds, the landscape, and both the exterior and the interior of the stately home. You will have the opportunity to carry out some guided interior sketches throughout the house during a private visit followed by a house tour looking at some of the Beit family’s collection of paintings.

‘PLEIN AIR AT RUSSBOROUGH’ with Yanny Petters

Spend a day immersed in art and nature with likeminded creative folk in the beautiful surrounds of Russborough House. You will explore the vast grounds of Russborough House and capture aspects of it in your sketchbook under the guidance and support of botanical artist Yanny Petters. You will focus on sketching En Plein Air in watercolour and water soluble pencil.

During your time at Russborough you will also enjoy a guided tour of Russborough House, followed by lunch together in the beautiful cafe.
