The atmosphere: Bob Masla and Monica Levine have created Casa de los Artistas with love and joy; they are committed to the growth of the individual on a creative and spiritual level, and they have crafted a stress-free environment of acceptance for their guests. A sense of family often develops among the participants in the workshops at Casa de los Artistas. The tropical fishing village of Boca de Tomatlan near Puerto Vallarta is on the same latitude as Hawaii. Typical weather at the end of February is 84°, dry and sunny. With its spectacular natural beauty, it’s a painter and photographer’s heaven. “This trip was the best I have had. I came with a loved one who was doing the workshop, so it was a vacation for me. “FANTASTIC” is the only word I could use and even it is not enough. I have had some Great Trips before, but This Tops Them All - Bar None!” -Charles Duncan, PLano, Texas - 2010, Casa Participant Guest "There are no words to describe the educational/artistic experience at the Casa - it was top notch! ...more than an art workshop, my week at the Casa has been an incredible life altering event that has nourished my mind, body and soul, - refreshing my creative spirit!" - Maggie O'brien, Director, Middletown Art Center - (Casa workshop participant) “What a special spot. I remember the beauty of the ocean and the mountains, the warmth and friendliness of the people, the dogs and children free to explore on their own without fear. I remember our wonderful Casa hosts Monica and Bob, Ruby’s gourmet food on the balcony, dinners on the beach. I felt taken care of from the moment I got to PV airport until Monica delivered me back again one week later.-Sylvia Rosenfeld, NYC. - 2010 Casa Participant SEMINAR IS LIMITED — REGISTER NOW TO RESERVE YOUR PLACE!
