DRAWNING,“AFFRESCO”, AND WATERCOLOR PAINTING
The focus of these courses are based on the most important painters of the Italian school, such as Giotto, Michelangelo, Raffaello, and others. Our art teachers adjust the ancient techniques to accommodate the use of modern mediums and materials. For instance, the “Affresco” technique consists of spreading successive layers of lime onto a canvas, and then drawing the desired image with charcoal. The image is then painted with colored pigments, which “dry” into the surface of the lime.
