What people are saying about us

“I am part of a Vincent VanGogh group on Facebook called VanGogh Inspires. Back in February of this year, I read about the Artist’s Table retreat the day after I saw the film Eternity’s Gate on this Facebook group. I immediately contacted Tali to see if they would allow someone who was not an artist to accompany them on their trip to Provence, walking in the footsteps of Van Gogh and Cézanne. They welcomed me with open arms. I had such a fabulous time on this trip. Not only did they take me to magical places, but they also inspired me to create a few paintings of my own. I had a great time.  They also prepared home-cooked meals that were works of art themselves. I highly recommend a retreat with Royce and Tali for creating art and memories that will last a lifetime.”

I've known Tali for several years now and I was really looking forward to joining one of her retreats, I was excited that I was able to come to the retreat in Zwolle, where Tali hosted us in her home field :)

That week was very enriching, it was so much fun to dedicate the whole day to creating in the atmosphere of the landscapes, studios, and galleries we were in. The significant thing was the energy and passion for Tali's work; it is really contagious. 

The variety of the workshops, by Tali and her artist friends who added their unique touch, allowed me to feel that I was developing and gaining tools for my work, with different perspectives on the creative process.

It was very convenient to enjoy the cities and the places we visited; everything was perfectly organized. 

Looking back on the time since the retreat, I feel how it affected my work, the freedom to create, and the confidence to experiment with new media. 

Highly recommend to anyone who wants to promote their creative endeavors while having fun.

“A retreat in every sense of the word. A real getaway from it all. My very first retreat with a bunch of incredible people from all over the globe, and what an exuberant experience it was — just soaking in the atmosphere of the countryside that a city dweller like me needed, but most of all, doing what I love best!“

–Belinda from Singapore

Tali and Shay,
Thank you for a great week. I came back with a wealth of experiences and tips that only increase my desire to sit down and realize my passion for painting.
You were wonderful and attentive to everyone in the group, eagerly awaiting the next meeting. Thank you again, 

see you soon

"First of all, I want to thank Tali and Royce for an unforgettable week. As an instructor myself, I know that the personality of the instructors is one of the most important contributors to the success of a workshop. Tali and Royce, I love you!!!! 

You are such a beautiful, gentle, modest, and human person. That is beside your talent and passion, curiosity, experimentation, and open mind, which are vital in my eyes. Thank you so, so much!!

“The beauty of the retreats is that on top of everything they offer—the landscapes, the workshops, the guidance—there’s always something entirely unexpected to be found: a new medium you never thought you’d use, a wave of inspiration, or a friendship for love. Tali and Royce offer all the space for growth and relaxation, as well as so many opportunities you never thought you’d take. Every retreat is an adventure and a journey to remember!”

I don’t know what you’re expecting… but… Tali is wonderful. It was an uplifting experience. Which included everything from everything. Tours to meet other local artists, who are very special, stay in nature, and are a great group. For me, it was a journey into myself. I had fun. I am considering traveling with her to another retreat. She had another teacher with her named Royce. He’s pretty awesome, too. Attentive to group needs, with requests. And the hotel was perfect and pleasant. In short, pamper yourself – a truly memorable experience. 

It’s an opportunity to meet creative worlds, you’ll see people there who have been painting for many years and will probably reach very impressive “results”… this happened to me too… frustrating, I admit, but why miss an opportunity to celebrate art in a way that you wouldn’t do it alone… You probably can continue the work you do there when you return… I have no interest in marketing, but I highly recommend it. Travel with an open and curious mind.

“Re-learning to simply sketch turned out to be a gift in that I continue to pursue. Using quick sketches helped me loosen up my technique. The collective meals were a great way to end each day at dinner together. Also, learning from other artists from several parts of the world with a variety of experience levels, and Tali is a fabulous artist to learn from, we are still connected.”

–Cas from Texas

I have been on three exciting Art Retreats with ArtisTTable, to Provence, to Granada and have just returned from Zwolle.
,I loved them all.  Tali is an inspiring artist who shares her talent and knowledge with her students.  As a person, she is kind and caring, freely giving extra help when needed.  The retreat in Zwolle was action-filled with experiences at various sites in sketching, painting, soft stone carving, print making, and monotype. There was  also a figure drawing session with a local art club. The hotel was clean and comfortable and well-appointed with a good choice of food for breakfast. The group shared picnic lunches and ate together in a restaurant in the evening.  I was lucky to share my holiday with friendly, caring ladies, led throughout by Tali with her optimism, encouragement and leadership.

Dear Tali,
Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart for this week that freed me
of inhibitions and pain
that allowed me abilities
that enhanced my observation
of the beautiful nature
we are all a part of.
We will meet again...

“It was an awesome week that I spent on Beaver Island during this summer with Tali & Royce and many other lovely folks!! An experience I won’t forget for a lifetime. There was much learning and sharing during the retreat, which I have not done before. This is a great concept by Tali & Royce, and they are awesome guys with a lot of innovative ideas and concepts. I'm already looking forward to the next retreat!!!“
