Naturescapes

Plein Air Painting

All of our outings are based on the difficulty level of the outing itself and not on the level of painting experience. We have specially developed the Wandering in Nature trips to be relatively easy in order to maximise your pleasure in nature. Our Hiking Wild outings are on the other hand more strenuous and require a decent level of fitness as they are proper hikes. Anyone is welcome to come whether or not you have taken any Basic Techniques Courses.

Our outings are varied, different locations such as mountains, forests, waterfalls, lakes and rivers, and marshes. The difficulty of the outing or hike will be listed for each specific activity and we suggest you take a close look before choosing as minimum fitness levels are required depending on the outing or hike. Appropriate information will be given for each specific activity.

- Wandering in Nature and Basic Techniques are covered in the price for the Wandering in Nature product allowing you to do as many of either as you wish.

- Hiking Wild, Private Groups, Team Building, Family Painting are individually priced, more information coming soon.

- Week-End Wandering in Nature outings are broken up into two 4 hour sessions on both Saturday and Sunday at selected locations. It will be possible to choose either a morning or afternoon session or both.

Wandering in Nature

‘Wandering in Nature’ focuses on working with the time and/or energy you have. You don’t have to go far to find beautiful spots to paint, it’s all about getting somewhere fast to start painting as quickly as possible. Sometimes you only have a few hours yet still want to disconnect from everyday worries.

Sometimes you just don't feel like walking for miles to enjoy majestic places. You just need 5 to 15 minutes on foot and the rest of the time you can get lost in the natural surroundings and process of painting.

Come with us on our ‘Wandering in Nature’ outings specifically designed for your needs and renew your mind, energy, and spirits!

Our Wandering in Nature excursions are usually easily accessible by car or public transport unless stated otherwise. The distance of the walks we go on are usually short, between 5 - 15 minutes depending on the activity and distance to destination.

 

Hiking Wild

For the more adventurous wanting a challenge, ‘Hiking Wild’ will take you to the more remote parts that take a little bit more time to get to. Half-day and full-day hikes are just the beginning! Hikes with one, two, or more nights camping for the magical and intense experience you need to reconnect yourself to nature. These outings are truly to get away from it all to fully immerse yourself in the awesome power of the wilderness and absorb the light, colour, and energy that only Mother Nature can provide.

‘Hiking Wild’ is the perfect antidote to the everyday grind. These outings are designed for those who are in relatively good shape, go hiking and camping often and who like a physical challenge but want to try something new. With ‘Hiking Wild’ you’ll get that good hike in to those remote places only accessible by foot and have plenty of time to bask in the glorious beauty of the magnificent alpine vistas and immortalise that moment in paint in company of like-minded people.

All our ‘Hiking Wild’ hikes are based on the difficulty level of the hike itself and not the level of painting experience. Access to the starting of these hikes will be made as easy as possible however certain destinations may require a vehicle.
