    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I am a professional painter (plein air landscapes and townscapes mostly, but also still lifes and portraits). I am happy to share my knowledge and provide you with studio space for painting in return for help with any of the jobs needed to maintain this as a beautiful place for painting. I teach art via an online self-study art school.

    Help

    I have a studio with a large amount of land with woods, terraced meadows, a herb garden, a few olive trees, vines, and fig trees. Beautiful views from every part of the property. It's too big for me to maintain, so I could use some help in any of these areas:
    - removing invasive shrubs from the land
    - strimming grass
    - cutting and stacking wood
