CREATIVE DAYS
You will start art working at 10 or 11am (depending on artists) to 5pm after a talk or demonstration from the Artist in residence we will break for a lunch provided by the host from 1 to 2pm - then an evening meal on the first
day. We can advise accommodation.
The second day pretty similar, we want this
venture to be serious and fun – hard work and
joyful we want you to feel you have learnt
something, you have benefited from your
experience, or you want to perhaps hone your
already vast experience of artwork,
we think also that it may be useful if you are keen
on building a foundation in art or just want to
experience for the first time being with a group
of up to 12 people being tutored by an
artist. Open to beginners, people
who want to brush up their techniques meet with
different host artists anyone who is inquisitive about art... You will work with tutor for two
days with an hour for lunch. You can
stay for a three course evening meal cooked on
the premises. The menu and or the chef will be known nearer
time. In Tuscany 2008 we will visit one of the
local restaurants , You will be given directions
on how to get there, For the art break in
Buckinghamshire you will have the option of
arriving at the venue on the first day or going to
your accommodation the night before but of
course this will all depend on how far you will be
travelling. Do not hesitate to contact Claire Muldoon by phone or email ....if you need to discuss further see CONTACT PAGE for details.
ACCOMMODATION
Not included but we can supply info from Hotel; B&B; farmhouses; rooms in the village to tents in the grounds ranging from £5 - £70.

FROM THE JOHN HEGLEY AUTUMNAL WEEKEND - Thankyou John and everyone and Sid Russell) for a fabulous weekend .
"It really was a magical weekend - one gets so little time, even when working in a creative capacity as I do (it;s still work though!), to revisit, explore and enjoy creativity and imagination with other like-minded folk, all of whom were inspirational.. Add to this the wonderful hospitality atmosphere and the peaceful surroundings you offer you end of with the perfect weekend. And on top of this to be guided by the sublime John Hegley who was wonderfully gracious and entertaining throughout. Artbreakmotel stands out as my 09 highlight . Cannot recomend enough! " Joanna - filmmaker BFI
Will post more photos and comments in due course

"Just wanted to send you a big better-late-than-never
T H A N K Y O U for our warm words weekend
at the Artbreak Motel where
although its always crowded,
You still can find some room....
You can sit with no shoes on
alongside your muse, John,
(the poet from Luton)
on a sofa or futon,
take tea with a bourbon
while clare puts the stew on
lletting you express views on
the importance of rhyme or
jjust have a nice time, 'til you're ready to move on"
from Jen and Finlay Bulrush Dec 07
Just spent the weekend at the art break motel, with some lovely and talented people, including John, thoroughly recommended to all if such a workshop is run again.

It was an amazing weekend, met some wonderful people, ate some superb food and even managed to put together some poems, which reading them out in front of such a warm crowd last weekend was something I won't forget..........ecially John Hegley ones.
