Description
A creative workshop to introduce you to the delicate painting technique of watercolour: from the initial choice of materials, to the definition of the project to the actual execution, immersed in the eclectic and stimulating context of an art studio. Your hosts, Maria Luisa and Salvatore, professional artists with various collaborations on the international scene, will welcome you into their finely restored studio.
At the beginning, you will learn how to juggle the few simple tools that are indispensable for the realisation of your work, brushes, paper and paints, followed by an explanation of the basic techniques of watercolour painting. If you already have a drawing background, you will be able to execute your idea and then be technically supported to ensure its correct execution. If, on the other hand, you are entering the world of illustration for the first time, you will be provided with images as a model, in order to take your first steps in watercolour painting. At the end of the session you will have the satisfaction of taking home an artwork entirely created by you.
Before or after the workshop, the medieval village of Ponti sul Mincio, which hosts the illustration studio, is also worth a stroll: located in the first hinterland of Peschiera del Garda, it was awarded the Orange Flag for its historical and cultural heritage and the characteristic atmosphere that one can breathe among the historic streets of the village.
An experience for those who wish to experiment their artistic potential in the vast world of illustrative arts, but also for those who want to express their own style without conditioning and give shape to a personal creative idea. An opportunity to try your hand at an ancient art, which still retains its tradition and manual skills. This is an experience to be shared as a family: the two artists who own the studio specialise in art courses for children and young people, and of course for adult beginners and novices.
