ROME IN WINTER
A cool workshop of Figure Drawing and Art watching
This New Renaissance Atelier Workshop, is dedicated to Figure Drawing in studio with models and visiting many of the Museums and archeological sites that Rome has to offer.
Rome is the perfect place for a Figure Drawing workshop: the morning swill be dedicated to 4 hour drawing sessions, drawing models from life, practicing a variety of drawing techniques, studying essential elements of Figure Anatomy, practicing measuring, tonal rendering, drawing the figure in foreshortening.
The afternoons will be dedicated to visiting museums where works by some of the greatest figurative artists: paintings and sculptures representing the human figure created in antiquity by Classic and Hellenistic masters or produced during the Renaissance and Baroque periods by artists such as Michelangelo, Bernini, Caravaggio, will be our source of learning and inspiration.

Why go to Rome during the Winter?
The number of artworks, museums and archeological sites that can be found in Rome is staggering each museum contains works by some of the greatest masters that ever lived. In fact, the whole city of Rome can be considered a museum, making it fun exploring the city, walking from the Pantheon, one of the best preserved of all the ancient Roman buildings, where the tomb of Raphael can be found, to Piazza Navona, where one can admire the works of two masters of the Baroque period: Bernini’s Fountain of Rivers and Borromini’s church of Santa Agnese in Agone. Or do the Caravaggio tour, visiting the three churches where some of the best and most famous Caravaggio’s paintings can be found. But Rome is very hot and crowded in the Summer, making it harder to walk around and lingering in front of that painting that we always wanted to see from life.
Rome in Winter is a different, very enjoyable experience: the number of tourists is much smaller, museums and sites that are usually very crowded during the Summer season, have a very limited number of visitors during the Winter.
Join me, from January 3 to 11, 2023 for this intensive Figure Drawing and Art History workshop in Rome, enjoying art, food and enjoy the company of other art enthusiasts.
