The Sun Collective

Born from the way that land influences artistic practice, the challenge of finding time to pause and create, and the immense inspiration from the island of Lanzarote.The Sun Collective offers art retreats that welcome all who are eager to deepen their practice, surrounded by the beauty of an untamed island in the middle of the Atlantic, guided by the finest art professionals.It's a safe place to inspire and deepen your artistic development, set in a unique location in the world.Join our first art retreat the last week of January with Johnny Vieira, the watercolor surfer. Let him guide you from coast to coast as you translate your inner sea onto paper. Lanzarote, Canary IslandsLanzarote is a forceful island, with its volcanic might, lava covering a third of the land, and the surrounding Atlantic Ocean makes it a unique place in the world. Its energy is palpable from the moment you step off the plane, drawing you away from the trivial and connecting you with your true self. Its landscapes, more reminiscent of Mars than anywhere on Earth, ignite the creative spark in anyone who sets foot in here.It's no coincidence that Lanzarote has been home to great artists like César Manrique and Jose Saramago. Your Host, Lucía EntrialgoLucía arrived in Lanzarote three years ago, just as the pandemic was ending. She moved without knowing the island, with her husband and daughter. Now, after embracing the power of living amidst beauty, slow living, and local culture, she wants to guide you to understand what it means to create from a land surrounded by water in the middle of the Atlantic. She aims to share all the inspiration she's received from the island to reignite her artistic practice with you, so your time at The Sun Collective fills you with peace and inspiration, sending you home with your bags packed full of creative power.For any questions or more information, feel free to reach out.
