About this trip

The Art of Noticing Watercolor Painting Retreat with Leslie Baum. 


Explore the landscape of the Driftless. Attune to the late summer light and how your experience of the landscape shifts with the time of day. Paint in morning, afternoon, dusk, and evening.  

This plein air painting retreat includes guided and independent painting time, opportunities to share work, morning yoga, and an evening of star gazing with a local astronomer. Explore plein air painting as an expansive pursuit, one that encompasses more than rendering a view. Embrace the creative potential of noticing our environment, slowing down, and being present. Leslie will provide prompts and invitations to guide your painting – helping to cultivate a personal painterly approach. The focus will be on imaginatively responding to what the landscape evokes - the sensations, memories, images -and how that shifts from morning to evening.


There are both single and shared room available. Fee includes all meals, welcome cocktail/mocktail,  morning coffee and tea service, instruction and guidance form Leslie Baum, morning yoga, and naturalist visit.

I highly recommend doing any retreat at Red Clover Ranch- it is a little slice of paradise. Just the right amount of "roughing it" with comfortable and clean accommodations, beautiful details and amazing healthy food. Annie is a genius. And Leslie's watercolor teaching was top notch- I rapidly accelerated from where I'd left off all those years ago in college. Run don't walk! So fun!

I learned so much about watercolor, despite having been using it for several years. The space created by Leslie was special and inspiring. The people at the ranch were warm and welcoming. And, the amazing food was tasty and nourishing!

This was the perfect weekend away! The people at Red Clover were lovely and the food was amazing. It was also wonderful to spend time with the other guests over long breakfasts and dinners. I will definitely be back!

This experience was a true retreat and reset! Every element was well crafted and delivered with care. Beautiful yoga and breathwork bookended the days. Active outings provided a powerful way to connect with the land and waterways of the Driftless. Red Clover Ranch is exquisite—with welcoming curated spaces, unique artworks, stellar local food and transcendent landscape. Revolutionary hospitality ladies! Thank you.

I had a magical time with old friends and new over the July 4th holiday weekend. Splendid hand crafted meals by Chef Dani and team, lovely hikes on the ranch, fresh air and beautiful cabins! Can't wait for my next trip to RCC!
