Workshops and conventions

The Levenart Agency: Artist in two houses : Notre Dame des Anges in Rustrel and Maison 70 in Apt and the galery to visit in Apt

Two creative places to learn drawing, painting and color in the Luberon

Drawing classes, watercolor courses and painting workshops in the Luberon take place in two unique locations, selected for their atmosphere and strong artistic identity. Depending on the season and the type of workshop, I welcome you either in Apt or in Rustrel.

Notre-Dame-des-Anges in Rustrel – in the heart of the Colorado Provençal

In Rustrel, classes are held at Notre-Dame-des-Anges, in the heart of the Colorado Provençal. This exceptional natural setting is perfect for an outdoor watercolor class, where you can learn to observe, draw and work with color, directly inspired by the landscapes, ochres and light of the Luberon.

 Maison 70 in Apt – artistic space and gallery

In Apt, classes take place at Maison 70, a creative space I founded, dedicated to artistic practice combining drawing, painting, ceramics and design.

As an artist and ceramicist, I develop a multidisciplinary approach, creating custom tables, ceramic frescoes, sculptures, artworks and unique pieces. Among them are the Boulinettes, small, expressive sculptures designed as collectible totems.

My work explores form, graphic expression and material, with a strong focus on composition and color, influenced by figures such as Le Corbusier, Roger Capron and Picasso. Printmaking also plays an important role in this research, in constant dialogue with ceramics.

Each piece is handmade as a unique work, designed to integrate into a space and tell a story.

Art gallery in Apt – meet the artist

My art gallery in Apt, open since March at 195 rue des Marchands, allows you to discover my world, see my work in person and meet me before starting a drawing or painting class.

Whether you want to learn how to draw, start watercolor, develop your understanding of color or compose an artwork, these two locations offer complementary experiences, between immersion in nature and studio practice.

Feel free to visit the gallery or contact me by email through the website to join a class.

Ratings from our interns

Joelle

I've never had the opportunity to practice ceramics in residence, but Cécile's world has long been calling me. The idea of ​​being able to experience this in her new Provençal home in Apt, starting in April 2026, deeply excites me. A place of creation, light, and material, entirely designed by a passionate artist-architect... I already feel it will be a timeless moment. I can't wait to reserve my place and finally dive into the clay, guided by Cécile's sensitivity and generosity." — Joëlle

Estelle

Coming from the North for my first internship in Rustrel, I had a creative and inspiring experience with Cécile. Her world, somewhere between art and interior design, deeply touched me. This internship made me want to go further… So this summer, I'm extending the adventure with a new session in Apt, in her magnificent Provençal house, which is currently being renovated. A place full of poetry, conducive to creativity and exchange. I can't wait to rediscover this unique atmosphere and perfect my drawing skills. Thank you, Cécile, for your generosity and your unique perspective." — Estelle

Leven Art : Nurturing Your Artistic Journey

Finding a Drawing Internship in Rustrel for Beginners

At Leven Art, we're passionate about helping aspiring artists find their creative voice. If you're a beginner eager to explore the world of drawing, our drawing internship in Rustrel provides the ideal opportunity. Rustrel, nestled in the heart of the Luberon, serves as a captivating backdrop for your artistic journey.

Our drawing internship is tailored specifically for beginners. We understand that the first steps in art can be both exciting and daunting, and that's why we offer a supportive and inspiring learning environment. In Rustrel, you'll discover the magic of drawing, mastering proportions, textures, and the secrets of creating volume through color and transparency.

Learning the intricacies of facial proportions is a crucial part of creating realistic and expressive portraits. During the internship, we will closely examine various facial features, from the nose to the eyes and the mouth, and teach you how to harmoniously arrange them to capture likeness and emotion.

Managing textures and contrasts is another dimension of the internship. You'll explore how to realistically render surfaces like skin, hair, and clothing while playing with shadows and lights to create striking effects.

The internship's core focus lies in understanding the magic of volume through color and transparency. By using watercolors, you will learn to layer colors to bring the subjects to life, create transparency effects for luminous eyes, and use color to sculpt the forms, giving them a three-dimensional impression.

If you prefer learning in an outdoor setting, Lourmarin's picturesque landscapes provide the perfect backdrop. As you immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Luberon region, you'll be inspired to capture the charm and essence of the surroundings with your watercolor brushes.
