点评:Jean-Louis and his lovely wife Fiona welcomed me with such warmth and generosity into their charming village home in Jouques. From the very first evening, when they prepared a delicious French dinner for me, I felt immediately at home. ❣️
I particularly appreciated having access to my own little kitchen, which allowed me to prepare and savour some of the wonderful Provençal delicacies I discovered during my stay. 😋
The house is beautifully situated in the heart of the village. In the mornings, before my private art lessons, I could simply walk down into the village for a cappuccino, pick up something for lunch, and enjoy the friendly greetings of the local people. It was exactly the kind of authentic French village life I had been hoping for. ☕🥗🇫🇷
My mornings spent exploring the surrounding countryside with Jean-Louis were a real feast for the senses. In July, Provence was filled with the intoxicating fragrance of lavender, and being able to sit beside the lavender fields and sketch was an unforgettable experience. 💜✨🎨
As a painter myself, I was delighted to discover new artistic approaches and techniques, including the beautiful cold wax technique.
There was also something wonderfully nostalgic about sitting once again, more than forty years after my graphic design studies, at the edge of a little French village with my sketchbook — this time capturing the enchanting silhouette of Jouques. It brought a very special smile to my heart. ✍️🥰
My private lessons with Jean-Louis were not only artistically inspiring, but also a lovely and harmonious experience. His knowledge, curiosity and passion for the region made the week truly special.
And of course, a little lick from my AMORe 🐩 Mio, who was very happy to be part of the adventure! 😉
A heartfelt thank you to Jean-Louis and Fiona for their kindness, hospitality, generosity and for all the thoughtful little touches that made my stay so enjoyable.
I leave Jouques with beautiful memories, new artistic inspiration and a little piece of Provence in my heart. 💜🇫🇷
With warmest greetings from Bavaria to the South of France,

翻译:让-路易和他可人的妻子菲奥娜以极大的热情与慷慨接纳了我,让我能住在他们位于茹克斯村的迷人家中。从第一个晚上起,当他们为我准备了美味的法式晚餐后,我就立刻有了宾至如归的感觉。❣️
我尤其喜欢能使用那间独立的小厨房,这样就能亲手制作并品尝我在逗留期间发现的种种美味的普罗旺斯特色佳肴。😋
这座房子坐落在村子的中心地带,地理位置极佳。每天早上,在上私人艺术课之前,我都可以漫步走进村子里,喝上一杯卡布奇诺,买些午餐食材,还能感受到当地人热情的问候。这正是我所期待的那种纯正的法国乡村生活啊。☕🥗🇫🇷
我和让-路易一起在周边乡村漫步的时光真是一种感官上的享受。七月的普罗旺斯,到处都弥漫着令人陶醉的薰衣草香气。能够坐在薰衣草田旁写生,真是一次难忘的体验。💜✨🎨
作为一名画家,我很高兴能发现各种新的艺术表现手法与技巧,比如那种极为精美的冷蜡画技法。
时隔四十多年后,我再次带着素描本坐在一座法国小村庄的边缘——这一次,我尽情描绘着茹克村迷人的剪影。这种体验实在带着一种美妙的怀旧气息啊。这让我心中涌起一股无比幸福的微笑。✍️🥰
我和让-路易斯的私人课程不仅在艺术上给我带来诸多启发,更是一段温馨又和谐的美好体验。他对当地地区的丰富了解、强烈的好奇心以及满腔热情,让那一周变得格外特别。
当然,还有我的爱犬AMORe 🐩 Mio的“亲吻”相伴——它也开心得不得了,能参与这次冒险呢!😉
衷心感谢让-路易斯和菲奥娜的友善与热情款待。感谢你们的慷慨大方,也感谢那些贴心的小细节,让我的入住体验无比愉快。
离开茹克斯时,我心中满是美好的回忆、全新的艺术灵感,还有一小片普罗旺斯永远留在了心底。💜🇫🇷
从巴伐利亚向法国南部致以最温暖的问候,
多萝西娅 ✨🎨✨
