EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME

Since the 15th century, artists have made the pilgrimage to the Cairn Valley in the Dumfries and Galloway area of south west Scotland simply to witness the purity of its light. Today, artists still flock to this flawlessly preserved countryside. As a student/artist studying abroad at the Godstone Ranch School of the Arts at Glencairn Parish Church, you will revel in pastoral beauty while you shed the distractions of daily life and focus on your craft. Walk in the footsteps of the famed Glasgow Boys and Girls! Experience the magical light of the Scottish Riviera. Study with fellow artists under the tutelage of world class acclaimed artist Karen Garrett. Experience plein air painting in one of the most beautiful landscapes on earth.

“Loved the delightful Glencairn Parish Church at Kirkland.”
