Traveling throughout isolation, an artful journey / Art classes and workshops for travelers
Since the Covid 19 pandemic crept into our lives, the possibility of traveling became more and more limited, in particular the international one.
Many of you, who like me thrive when traveling are starting to feel the unpleasant taste of the cabin fever.
With the term virtual traveling becoming a norm these days, we reinvented ourselves to adjust to the new reality.
I am convinced that the majority of you had tried at least one of the armchair experiences: watched travel documentaries, read books and travels blogs, took a virtual tour of a famous museum, experienced a quarantour, or shared travel stories via Zoom with friends and family.
My artist's soul and the avid traveler in me needed more, so I thought that putting together art classes and workshops for travelers is not a bad idea.
You don't need to have any previous art encounter and I assure you that you can be as creative as you allow yourself to be.
After all, you had been packing your bags so many times and adventured on a safari trip to Kenya, a Gaudi tour in Barcelona, or a visit to Dracula's castle in Transylvania.
Making Art can be as entertaining and rewarding as one of your trips. And when we combine the two together: Art and Travel we get the most rewarding cure for the upcoming winter blues.
So, join me in one of these fantastic artful journeys.
