Overview

This experience is more than a simple art lesson; it is an authentic journey into the Florentine artistic tradition. You will have the opportunity to work with historical materials such as fresh plaster, natural pigments, and traditional spatulas. You will take home not only a piece of art created with your own hands but also a genuine understanding of Renaissance painting techniques.

The environment is intimate and carefully curated, far from mass-produced workshops, with a limited number of participants to ensure personal attention and high quality. Feel the texture of the plaster, appreciate the master artisan's movements, and give shape and color to a unique fresco created by you for you.

  • Professional materials: plaster, wooden support, and natural pigments)

What to expect

Club Joy, together with our resident artisan, welcomes you to discover the ancient art of the fresco in the heart of Florence. You will learn to prepare the plaster on its support, transfer the design using the traditional spolvero (pouncing) technique, and paint with natural pigments on fresh plaster.

Choose your colors, apply the base, trace the design, and paint the outlines and gradients as you follow a creative flow guided by the artist. Throughout the workshop, you will discover fascinating facts about the Renaissance painting tradition and the evolution of fresco from the past to the present day. This is a relaxing and rewarding experience, ideal for anyone seeking creativity, craftsmanship, and a sense of well-being.
