April 25–30, 2027
A five-night immersion led by Laurie Doctor — drawing, watercolor, and visual journaling — set inside The Fitzgerald, one of the three oceanfront estates that make up The Three Authors in Corolla, NC. Mornings on the top-floor studio; afternoons on the deck and the beach; evenings around the table.
The Fitzgerald, outside in
Three private acres on Corolla's four-by-four beach — reachable only by the sand, with wild horses on the dunes and the Atlantic at the property line. Pool deck, oceanfront hot tub, and a wrap-around upper deck where most of the plein air work happens.
