art retreats around the world

I’m thrilled to share some exciting news with you! Over the past two years,
my art retreats have become such a hit that I’ve been working behind the scenes to create even more amazing experiences for you, in collaboration with some of my favourite artist friends. And now, I’m proud to introduce Olive and Plum Retreats!
Whether you’re dreaming of a quintessential English escape in the Cotswolds, the thrill of a South African safari, or the chance to paint with me and the incredible Jane Davies in Italy, we’ve curated a stunning lineup of events that will inspire and captivate.
My business partner, Katie Beaumont, and I are pouring our hearts into finding the most
talented art educators and breathtaking venues, all over Europe and beyond, to make sure each workshop is an unforgettable experience.

 

We can’t wait to welcome you to one of our retreats and share these magical adventures with you!

"I never thought i could create any art painting, drawing or charcoal. I have been attending Sarah's classes for a couple of years. She is such a brilliant teacher and a great artist. I'm so glad I've found her. Her classes are excellent. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn or improve their skills". Tunde Webster (Google Review)

Explore my forthcoming retreats below & I hope to see you there!
