Earth Lines

Earth Lines is an immersive masterclass led by artist Romas Tauras, weaving art and nature through earth-pigment drawing, journalling, cyanotype and sound experiences—complemented by yoga and quiet riverside time.
Offered as a full week or a weekend, so you can choose the pace that suits you.
Masterclasses at Terra Verde are immersive, week-long getaways designed for individuals, couples and friends who want more than a simple break — they’re for those eager to explore a new passion, reconnect with nature and spark lasting inspiration. For those short on time, selected masterclasses are also offered as focused weekend intensives, so you don’t miss the experience.
Our masterclasses are 7-day immersive holidays built around a central theme — from visual arts and movement to storytelling or sustainability. They blend guided workshops with free time, group activities with quiet moments, and learning with laughter.
Come as a pair — with your best friend, partner or sibling — and dive into something new together. Or come on your own and join a group of curious, open-hearted people seeking connection and inspiration.
