Join artist Luke Adam Hawker for a week of drawing, exploring, and slowing down at the beautiful Domaine d'En Naudet in Occitanie, France. This retreat is all about stepping away from the noise of everyday life and reconnecting with your creativity in a meaningful, inspiring way.

Together, we’ll dive into drawing techniques that help you really see the world around you—you’ll have the chance to capture perspective, light, atmosphere, texture, and architectural details. Whether you're sketching a quiet corner of a garden or the intricate shapes of an old stone building, drawing becomes a way to be fully present, to breathe a little deeper, and to notice the beauty in the moment.

This retreat isn’t about perfection; it’s about building confidence, curiosity, and connection. Throughout the week, Luke will be joined by assistant and fellow artist Laura to help ensure guests feel an extra level of support whether you’re new to drawing or looking to deepen your practice.

You’ll leave with new skills, a fresh creative spark, and a sketchbook full of memories. More than that, you’ll come away feeling recharged and grounded, with a deeper sense of how creativity can support you far beyond the page. We’ll find inspiration all around us, from the peaceful French countryside to visits to gorgeous gardens, the medieval town of Albi, as well as a local château winery.

We invite you to join us for a truly enriching, transformative experience, both for your art and your well-being.
