Flowers. Teacups. Silver.
The subjects Karen Daigle is known for - taught in person, for the very first time.
Karen Daigle has inspired thousands of painters online through her luminous still life work: the flowers, the teacups, the silver, the quiet drama of light on familiar objects. She has never taught in person. Until now.
Six nights at Chateau Charente. Five masterclass mornings. Ten painters only.
For five mornings, she works with each painter directly and individually. Not demonstrating from the front of the room. Sitting with you, looking at your canvas, and sharing the way she truly sees: the light, the restraint, the discipline of really looking before you ever pick up a brush.
This is not a workshop where you watch and take notes. Karen is beside you, understanding what you specifically need and teaching from exactly that.
Afternoons and evenings are yours. Time to wander, to rest, to let the morning's work find its place.
Five mornings of that quality of attention changes how you paint.
The setting is not incidental. Southwest France in May is all light and flowers and abundance. The very subjects Karen is known for surround you. It gets into the work.
The Chateau provides the rest: a dedicated studio, seasonal French cuisine prepared by the resident chef, curated excursions into the real France off the heavily travelled tourist trails, and morning wellness sessions. Everything is designed so that the only thing you need to think about is your painting.
Everything is designed to allow real creative work to happen.
