In our Painting and Drawing Summer Course, students can choose among the following techniques: ・Basic drawing ・Advanced drawing ・Oil painting ・Watercolor ・Tempera painting ・Acrylic painting
The course deals with the most fundamental principles and elements of Italian painting, with an emphasis on the perception and build-up of form, tone, and color on a two-dimensional surface. Emphasis is also on color mixing, handling of brush strokes, glazing, and scumbling, as well as traditional canvas preparation.
We offer hands-on practical learning experiences, in small groups, led by enthusiastic and experienced teachers.
