Fresco Painting Class in Florence

LEARN THE FRESCO PAINTING WITH THE TECHNIQUES OF ANCIENT MASTERS OF FLORENCE. The fresco is an ancient painting technique executed upon freshly laid, or wet lime plaster. Water is used as the vehicle for the dry-powder pigment to merge with the plaster, and with the setting of the plaster, the painting becomes an integral part of the wall. We offer the possibility to choose between three levels: BASIC - INTERMEDIATE - ADVANCED. The basic course for beginners: despite the complexity in the execution of this technique, together with our teacher you will be able to create a small fresco, drawing a simple decorative motif. Duration: 4 hrs. The intermediate course: choosing this option it would be recommended to have some knowledge on drawing or to have attended our basic course. The subject to draw during the course will be an anatomical detail. Duration 5 hrs. The advance course: For this kind of course it is useful to know how to draw or to have attended the basic&interm. course. The subject to paint will be a face. Duration 8 hrs. PLEASE NOTE: in this last case is important to contact the Atelier before the reservation and coordinate.
