DAWN TO DUSK TUTORIAL PAINTING SAFARI in the Northern Serengeti with Hazel Soan
The Serengeti is the largest intact ecosystem left on earth. Its true boundaries are defined not by lines on maps but by the seasonal movement of millions of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles. They circle the great grass plains and thorn thickets east of Lake Victoria, following the rain and feeding on the succession of plants it nourishes. Nowhere else can you observe the daily activities of such a variety and volume of wildlife.

Peter Brown is president of the NEAC and is fast becoming recognised as one of the UK’s leading figurative painters.

He is best known for his detailed and atmospheric depictions of street scenes in cities in the UK and abroad. Peter has hosted previous painting holidays to Florence, Arles, Havana and Vietnam.
