Overview

Slow down and experience Paris in a different way.

Paint your own watercolor in one of the city's beautiful outdoor locations and take home a framed artwork you'll proudly hang on your wall. No experience is needed—I'll guide you step by step from the very first brushstroke.

It’s a relaxed and welcoming experience, perfect for individuals, couples, and families — kids are very welcome, and no prior painting experience is needed. Everyone can enjoy the process at their own pace.

Depending on the weather and light conditions, each session takes place in one of three carefully selected locations:
– along the Seine with views of Musée d’Orsay
– in a quiet shaded garden near Petit Palais
– or under the elegant columns of La Madeleine

Each setting offers a different side of Paris — ensuring a unique and memorable experience every time.

Many guests describe it as a highlight of their trip, leaving with a personal and meaningful Paris souvenir.

What To Expect

Welcome to a curated plein-air watercolor experience in Paris. Each session is designed to offer the best artistic conditions, combining atmosphere, comfort, and light.

Depending on the day, we paint in one of three locations:

– Seine-side (Musée d’Orsay view) — open, cinematic Paris
– Petit Palais garden (Jardin Charles Aznavour) — calm and shaded
– La Madeleine colonnade — architectural setting, ideal in rainy weather

I introduce materials and demonstrate essential watercolor techniques — washes, blending, layering — guiding you step by step as you create your own Paris-inspired artwork.

No drawing skills are required — the composition is prepared in advance, so you can focus fully on painting.

No experience is needed. Your painting is framed and ready to take home as a personal memory of Paris.

Many guests describe this as a highlight of their trip. Even beginners are often surprised by what they create and leave with a real sense of accomplishment.

The final location and meeting details are shared the day before. Small groups ensure personal guidance and a calm, high-quality experience.
