Painting Experience in the center of Florence
Overview
The art class is an amazing opportunity to experience Florence through the eyes of a painter and to immerse yourself in the colours and lights of the Renaissance. The class is a Plein Air in a piazza next to the hotel, or on the river side. I'm a painter and art teacher and also a tourist guide. We will use acrylic or watercolor technique, because we can paint with acrylic as oil, or water color because it gives us enormous possibilities to spread our fantasy. We will use examples from art history to choose everybody's personal style. You will have the best souvenir from Florence, a small masterpiece painted by you. I'll teach you how to lay a colour base and how to shape the painting. Our aim is to understand how a painting was created in history and to try to quickly complete an art work.
The painting experience will take place on Piazza di Santo Spirito , or another location depending on weather conditions.
