All students are expected to provide their own transportation and art materials. An art materials list will be mailed to the student one month prior to the workshop. Breakfast and lunch are included the Ranch Student's fee, along with the fee for the workshop. Day students bring their own lunches.

Workshops are four to five days long. The Ranch Stay Students arrive at or after 4:00 on the Sunday prior to the Monday on which the workshop begins, and leave by 11:00 on the following Friday. Day Students arrive at 8:30 on the Monday the Workshop begins. 

There will be a 10% cancellation fee once the student has paid for the workshop.

Painting venues are set in the rolling hills of West Marin, one of the best preserved and most naturally beautiful settings in all of California. Large Barns, Out Buildings, Tomales Bay, Ocean Views, Ranch Animals, Gardens, Lakes are all possible venues.

Both private and public land will be available to the discerning artist.

All instructors are the personal friends of the Gales, which lends a relaxed and friendly atmosphere to the week's experience. Sally Gale, one half of the ranch team of Mike and Sally Gale, takes the workshops as well.

Those who wish to stay at the Ranch will stay in the Victorian ranch house built by Sally Gale's great-great-grandparents, Carlo and Katerina Traversi-Martinioya, and restored by Mike and Sally in1996. Mike and Sally live there too.

Expect a memorable workshop that you will want to repeat as often as possible! And, by the way, as soon as you decide to take the workshop, call Sally at 707-765-6664, give her your information, ask all the questions you wish, and then... send the check!

Only the receipt of one half of the fee will secure your position in the workshop.
