Al Fresco Art Experience
Meet local artist Lisa Flynn here at Bishop’s Lodge
Resort where you will chat about your interests and
possibilities for painting. Lisa will then choose an
appropriate, inspiring and scenic spot in the heart of
Santa Fe where she will be your guide and
creative mentor as you experience the sights and
sounds while painting on location or
“en Plein air” with watercolors. This is a great
experience for artists of all levels; even if you don't
consider yourself an artist you'll walk away feeling
fulfilled and with a renewed appreciation for your
surroundings.
