Prospects of Nature
Prospects of Nature is designed to be a holistic art course made to help creative guests consider three dimensionality from a flat two dimensional surface. Andalucia is beautiful all year round not least because of the quality of light.
We look at landscape and wildlife (flora and fauna), the culture and history of the people who live and lived here. We walk in the mountains and in the valley bottoms and explore the food culture of the area as well as the broader Mediterranean.
The course involves painting and drawing, making paint, modelling clay and generally enjoying ourselves whilst establishing a deep communion with the natural world.
