Last Day, Greece Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams 7" x 5" oil painting by Niki Gulley On the last day of our Plein Air Painting and Photography Workshop in Greece, some folks shopped, some relaxed by the pool, others continued photographing. I couldn't miss one last opportunity to paint our gorgeous Santorini view from our hotel balcony. Everyone had a lovely, rejuvenating afternoon!  Later that day we all gathered to share what we had painted and photographed during the trip, and sample some of the local wines and cheeses while we discussed the art. To cap off the evening, we treated ourselves to a delicious seafood dinner with another gorgeous view of the ocean, catching up with new friends and savoring our last night. A perfect ending to a perfect trip! Dinner with an amazing view on our last night. Next summer we will be leading an Art Trek to Spain and the following year we will be headed to Tuscany, England and Ireland, so...

SANTA FE ART TREK:  Plein Air Painting / Photography Workshop with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams   Day 4, afternoon location - Red Rocks 9" x 12" textured oil by Niki Gulley That afternoon, we moved on to this fascinating rock outcropping that seems to rise out of nowhere with intense red hues and hundreds of cracks and crevices that actually look hand-sculpted rather than naturally made. Again, each painter picked a different vantage point, with some capturing the whole formation, while others cropped in tight on a close-up of the cliffs, and I chose to just include the edge of them contrasted against the distant purple mountain and a sliver of the road cutting through the rocky terrain. Painting at the red rocks formation. Visit  nikigulley.com/artreks/  for upcoming Art Treks and Workshops or  E-mail  Niki Gulley  for more information.
