When packing clothes for your trip, keep in mind that while painting in the studio, both tops and bottoms should be a very dark color to eliminate any glare on your painting from lighter-colored clothes. If you have light-colored hair, we have black brimmed hats you can use, or you can bring a dark hat or something else to cover your hair with.
You may be able to get cheaper rates on a place to stay by using a service like Priceline.com or calling hotels and asking about discounts or specials. Also please note that I can’t vouch for the quality of any of these places, so you should look up reviews before booking anything.
