Atelier Neo Medici invites students and professional painters to the Aquitaine region of France for a two-month intensive painting workshop. The "Technique Mixte" Painting Workshop teaches an approach to painting known as the technique mixte, which has its antecedents with the early Northern masters. This technique employs a tempera underpainting over which oil colors are glazed, enabling the artist to achieve a profoundly intricate level of detail and greater luminosity of color than oil paint alone can produce.

Students are encouraged to work between classes and have permanent access to the atelier 24/7. All materials are provided. However, students wanting to advance more rapidly should come with at least one finished drawing in pencil of compressed charcoal (Cretacolor), on a gessoed canvas or panel, though additional paintings will be started during the two months. Brushes will be provided, but students can bring their own as well.
