Come Paint With Us

We are Keith Wicks and Chuck Pyle. We love to draw and paint, and we like to teach what we love.

Sonoma Arts Workshops are unique art experiences where we teach you painting and drawing plein air and in studio.

Together, we have over a century of creating paintings, drawings, and telling stories through pictures.

Learn at beautiful locations while expanding your knowledge and skills.

We offer supportive critique, camaraderie, conversation, and regular demonstrations to enliven your art practice.

France 2023

In May 2023, our first Art Adventure in the south of France took place. Based in Saint Antonin Noble-Val, we explored town, country, restaurants, museums, and visits to Charlotte and Tom’s farm for nature, cooking demos, food, fun, and bonhomie. Exploring with camera, sketchbook and canvas was the daily routine. Everyone had a marvelous time and we look forward to doing it again, perhaps with you!
