Painting while cruising down the Nile (#615)
FULLY SOLD
This is a rare opportunity to join the highly acclaimed contemporary artist, Sherree Valentine Daines on a voyage of artistic discovery. With Sherree’s expert tuition and guidance, you will be able to capture the timeless scenes of Egypt on canvas during a 7 night cruise aboard the Amber, an elegant Nile Dahabiyya. Sherree Valentine Daines is the face of Modern British Impressionism and has a significant portfolio of exhibitions at venues such as the Tate Gallery, the Barbican, the New English Art Club and the Lord’s Museum. The authenticity and accuracy of her observation is softened by her impressionistic approach, with her subtle hand blending each detail into a creation of captivating elegance. The late 19th century aristocracy of Europe would delight in cruising along the ancient splendours of the Nile Valley in their private ‘dahabiyyas,’ beautifully crafted wooden sailing vessels that presented the might of the Pharaohs from the vantage point of elegant convenience. At Bales we have recreated those halcyon days. Travelling with a small select group, you can witness the ancient treasures of Egypt up close and in a manner thought lost forever by discerning travellers. Avoiding the usual crowds and boats you have the advantage of an expert guide on hand to enlighten you along the way, little wonder then that this is Bales’ best selling holiday. Completing the entire journey between Aswan and Luxor by boat also provides the opportunity to truly relax, with 7 nights onboard to fully appreciate this classic journey. Sherree has joined forces with holiday company Bales Worldwide to create a unique voyage of artistic discovery. The Nile Painting Cruise is a small and exclusive group holiday which will include daily personal tuition from Sherree for a maximum of ten students during a seven night cruise aboard an elegant Nile Dahabiyya.
