One-day Art classes are meant for those art lovers who have little time to spend in Tuscany, but who wish to experience an intensive day of Art in our studio or among the monuments and buildings of Florence or in any another area of Tuscany, such as the charming Chianti hills, the medieval Siena and San Gimignano, or the charming Lucca. Group lessons are normally made up of 8-9 students and they are available every week between Monday and Friday. One-to-one and two-to-one classes (and also classes for small preexisting groups) are available every day even at weekends. Students can practice the medium they prefer according to their skills as well as to the the duration of the class. Students can take their lessons en plein air in the squares and streets of Florence, in its beautiful surroundings or in the famous Chianti hills. Students can also choose one or more among these destinations in Tuscany: Siena, San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, Pisa, Vinci, Volterra, Certaldo, Lucca, Montepulciano, Pienza, Montalcino, Arezzo. For individuals and small groups the program and the schedule of these courses can be totally tailored to their needs and interests. At the end of the lesson students will have accomplished a small but meaningful artwork which they will bring back home as a keepsake of their stay in Italy. The programs This is a very in-depth course conceived for those artists who, while spending a day in Tuscany, wish to be immerged in the Renaissance atmosphere, drawing and painting under the supervision and guidance of our experienced Art teachers. During this course students will have the opportunity to choose and practice various drawing and painting techniques, such as graphite, charcoal, pastel, water-colour, acrylic, oil. En plein air sessions can take place along the Arno river, in the ancient squares and in the “secret” gardens of Florence, away (but not far) from the madding touristic crowd. We can advice you on where to paint and draw before the lesson starts but you can also decide your destination on the day of your lesson. This course is suitable both for Art novices as well as for experienced artists and professionals. Please note: A very intensive, tailored Art course for those who wish to focus on drawing and painting techniques, either on an individual basis or in very small groups. Four options of classes are available: a 3.5-hour group from 1.30pm to 5pm; For these lessons our teachers will arrange a programme according to your needs, artistic experience and background. A very intensive, tailored private Art course for those who wish to focus on drawing and painting techniques, in studio or en plein air: a 4-hour private lesson or a 6-hour private lesson at the time you wish. For these lessons our teachers will arrange a programme according to your needs, artistic experience and background. This is a very special private course that will take you in a full day to one or more of the following unforgettable places: You will take sketches of the marvellous Tuscan countryside and towns and you will be able to paint breathtaking “scorci” en plein air. A private car will take you and your Art teacher to the place you have opted for: you will have the opportunity to draw in a relaxed atmosphere and to achieve some artworks that you will take home and maybe use to get inspired in the future. Our Art teachers will help students to develop their observation abilities while reproducing a natural landscape or a townscape, or even a monument or an ancient building.
