Welcome to the Italian Riviera.For today's sketching excursion,
Jeanine and
Cecilia will be taking you to the beautiful
Positano and the other gorgeous villages and towns of The Amalfi Coast. The Amalfi Coast is a Unesco World Heritage Site which has been featured in many movies (Under the Tuscan Sun, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Cleopatra, etc.) and is a well known travel destination for the rich and famous. Perhaps the appeal of the the Amalfi Coast lies in its Mediterranean climate, featuring warm summers and mild winters as well as its breathtaking shorelines and cliffside dwellings.

For the
MORNING SESSION we will visit the very picturesque town of
Positano with its fabulous coastal views and its jaw dropping settlement suspended vertically on the face of a cliff. Positano is a dream site for artists, writers, and photographers. Jeanine will share with you some wonderful photos of locals she follows on Instagram. The morning sketch focus will be on capturing the local lifestyle and in Positano.
Jeanine suggests you glance at the
photos and videos of locals she follows on
Instagram. They post beautiful photos and stories of their everyday life and what is happening during all seasons. You can screen shoot scenes in their videos or photo gallery for our morning sketch.
