Jeremy Lipking Returns to Africa

African landscape in morning light

A new chapter in the wild for one of contemporary realism’s most admired painters.

Africa has a way of changing your pace

For many artists, Africa is a dream that sits quietly on a bucket list for years—a place they have imagined painting and always hoped to experience. Jeremy Lipking’s Greater Kruger workshop brings together world-class instruction, extraordinary wildlife and one of the world’s most beautiful wildernesses.

Mornings begin with birdsong and light moving across the savanna. Elephants may pass while easels are being set up; afternoons unfold beneath ancient trees; evenings end around the fire. There is no rush—only thoughtful conversation, remarkable wildlife and the quiet joy of making art somewhere special.

Learn beside Jeremy

Jeremy shares demonstrations, personal critiques and the thinking behind his approach to light, atmosphere, edges and composition. The intentionally small group allows every painter to receive individual guidance while Jeremy paints alongside them.

Previous guest Raegan Brown described the journey as beautifully planned and full of adventures, wonderful hotels, exceptional food and lasting friendships—and praised Jeremy as both an outstanding painter and a humble, kind teacher.
