About this Retreat
Your Guides
Jurga is an internationally recognized watercolour artist and tutor whose work captures the delicate interplay of light, emotion, and landscape. With years of experience guiding students across the globe, she has developed a unique teaching philosophy that transcends traditional art instruction.
In our fast-paced world, Jurga believes in the profound power of slowing down. Her retreats are carefully designed sanctuaries where you can disconnect from daily noise and reconnect with your inner self, nature, and your innate creativity. Through the gentle, flowing medium of watercolour, she guides participants to observe the world more closely, finding beauty in the subtle details of a Moroccan medina or a Spanish coastal village.
Whether you are a seasoned painter seeking fresh inspiration or picking up a brush for the very first time, Jurga's warm, inviting approach fosters a safe space for artistic expression and personal growth. Her sessions are as much about the mindful process of creating as they are about the final masterpiece.
Details of this retreat
