  Outdoor Painting Skills with Thomas Jefferson Kitts\nWhen: September 
 12 - 19th, 2015Where: Certaldo, near Florence, Italy\nAttention: A 10%
  Early Bird Discount offered until May 15th!\nTo receive detailed info
 rmation, email Thomas at:PleinAirTuscany@thomaskitts.com\nTo learn abo
 ut me, please visit: http://www.thomaskitts.com\nFrom 2014: “Thomas
  takes time with every participant to tune his helpful comments to the
 ir level. This was a great opportunity for me to spend time with a ver
 y experienced painter who is generous with his knowledge.” – Marie
 -Claire, Austria\nThe above endorsement comes from a student, who live
 s in Germany and joined my Tuscan class last year. It was a joy to wor
 k with her face-to-face and I hope you will consider participating thi
 s year as well. If you do I will take care of everything else. We will
  pick you up in Florence, lodge you in a beautiful 18th century villa,
  feed you freshly prepared local cuisine, transport you to and from ou
 r painting sites, and take you into Florence on an informative tour of
  the Macchiaioli painters of Italy – all with six hours of expert pa
 inting instruction from me each day.\nIt is my hope this class will be
  a mix of Europeans and Americans, similar to the workshop I just held
  in Mexico last month. A fun and skill-building experience for all, an
 d a chance to make some international friends.\nFor a quick video of l
 ast year's trip, click: https://youtu.be/ALrG2WcwUys\n\nInstruction w
 ill focus on how to begin and complete an oil painting outdoors within
  a single session – both for those who wish to paint alla prima, and
  those who wish to use plein air painting to inform more comprehensive
  studio work. Here are some specific things we will cover as a group, 
 with additional instruction focussed on your personal needs and intere
 sts during our time together...\n• Using Light & Shadow to create a
