ART COURSES

We firmly believe that anyone can learn to draw or paint given the right tuition and encouragement and a positive environment. If you are a newcomer to art then this is the ideal way to learn, very quickly, but enjoyably, how to become an artist.

Learn the basic techniques well and then you will have the confidence to be more creative with the skills you learn.

We offer different week long courses exclusively for the beginner. These will be geared to those who know nothing or little, or wish to revisit basic skills. It is good to learn with others who are at the same stage as yourself.

We also recognise that there are plenty of artists and students out there who wish to improve their existing skills in a particular area so we have called these courses 'INTERMEDIATE ART COURSES'. Most artists would probably admit that they never stop learning and for those who wish to move out of their comfort zone and try some advanced techniques these courses will offer you stimulating new techniques to improve your work.

Other courses we have called

for those who wish to come and work in whatever medium they choose with advice and guidance on hand on an individual basis.

...and after.........

We are aware that what often happens is that students attend a course and are full of enthusiasm and good intentions about keeping up their drawing or painting once they return home. Often though, life interferes and this doesn't happen. Usually because there is no set goal. We offer students follow up

These are designed so that you can continue to work on the skills learned here in Italy, at home, with full instructions on different projects to work on. With the homestudy/portfolio course you have 2 'Skype' sessions with Pheona so she can look at your work and give feedback and advice.

PORTRAITURE AND FIGURATIVE ART COURSES

As portraiture and figurative art is Pheona's specialism we are able to offer specialised tuition in this area.
