Dates: May 29-June 5, 2025
Instructor: Scott Gellatly
Venue: Palazzo Angelo d’Oro, Rovinj, Croatia
Medium: All
Level: All
Capture the light and color of Rovinj, Croatia, in this plein air immersive course with instructor Scott Gellatly. From its harbors to its colorful architecture and narrow alleys, Rovinj provides endless inspiration to capture with the freshness of plein air painting.
Scott creates his paintings with an expressive hand and a generous offering of color creating imagery which draws upon our shared connection to the natural world. He will focus on color strategies placing the play of light at the forefront in a responsive and expressive manner. The workshop will center around daily discussions and demonstrations relating to color-mixing and color strategies followed by plein air painting sessions, where we will put these color strategies to work. Each day will conclude with an informal group review of the day’s paintings.
We will schedule a Zoom meeting with Scott and the participants prior to the trip to discuss class format, supply list and travelling with painting gear. Like the previous travel workshops that Scott has led with Winslow Art Center, this is sure to be an unforgettable week!
Angelo d’Oro is a beautifully converted 17th Century Bishop’s Palace, a Croatian historic preservation site located in the heart of Rovinj’s old town. Built around a charming interior garden where breakfast and evening drinks are served, the three-story site offers elegant accommodations in 21 rooms on three floors. Interior art workshop space is available in a vaulted room on the first floor.
The town of Rovinj, the jewel of the Istrian Peninsula, is heavily influenced by Italian architecture and culture, and indeed formed part of Italy until recently. Surrounded on three sides by water, medieval and renaissance Rovinj consists of a warren of cobble stone streets, tunnels and stairways, the entire town banned to car traffic. Waterfront restaurants, shops, cafes and a vibrant marketplace are all within steps of our venue. At the top of the town is a cathedral, surrounded by a park with dramatic views of the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea.Â
In addition to workshops led by nationally acclaimed instructors, and a day excursion arranged by Winslow Art Center, participants, and their non-painting companions, will have access to beaches, boat excursions, bike rental and an extensive public park created in the late 19th Century when Istria was still under Austrian rule.
The pick-up and drop-off point for those traveling to Rovinj by transportation arranged by Winslow Art Center is in Trieste, a city near and convenient to Venice and other locations.Â
What’s Included: Â
With over 10 years of experience organizing art tours, and with part of our team, my daughters Anne and Amy, living in Europe and fluent in Italian and Spanish, we have the ability not only to maintain long term relationships with the owners and staff of our favorite venues, but to seek out and vet new and unique locations each year. We personally participate in every travel workshop to ensure the quality of the accommodations and cuisine as well as to coordinate the special needs of the art instruction program.
