Capertee Landscape Painting Retreat with Blue Mountains Artist Corinne Loxton

Capertee is an ancient valley west of the Blue Mountains and 70 km north of Lithgow. A dramatic mountain range surrounds the floodplain valley, affording wonderful views of the sandstone rockfaces and ridges.

In 2024, artist Corinne Loxton led a hugely successful retreat in the valley, with 8 participants, both new to painting and experienced. Everyone loved it so much that she’s doing it again! Be quick to book as spots will fill up.
The Capertee Painting Retreat is a 4-day plein air (outdoor) painting retreat in which you will develop your skills and confidence painting the landscape, in a relaxed and encouraging environment. We will also take time out to enjoy new friendships, the beautiful surroundings and the experience of disconnecting from everyday life. There will be time to rest, meditate, journal, bushwalk or just curl up with a great book.
As well as the tuition in painting, to develop your technique and assurance painting plein air, Corinne will introduce you to practices she uses to reliably connect with creative flow. The retreat will be based at Oska’s Cottage in Glen Davis. The property has excellent views and easy access to walks and painting locations. Once you arrive, you will have plenty of time for reflection, grounded movement and restoration to ensure you feel re-energised and grounded after the 4 days.
