Thinking about a sculpture workshop in Italy?

 

Don’t you know which one to choose due to the wide offer? We give you the chance to create your own sculpture in an old sculpting studio located in the heart of Florence. You will touch and feel the Florentine art atmosphere.

We offer both clay and wood sculpture courses. You can book from 24 up to 96 hours.

Sculpture in clay

You will study the various types of clay, the utensils and their correct use.

You will see modelling techniques for sculptures in the round, in low and high relief and “a colombino” (statues which are hollow inside with a uniform thickness).

You will create imaginative works, using a pre-existent model or a model from life, also using photographic material and anatomical atlas.

Secondly, you will fire the work and apply cold varnishes or polychromes, using tempera or oil colours.

Wax finishing, bronze casting includes the production of an original model in wax, the creation of a cast in plaster or silicon gums to reproduce the model, into which the wax is then poured, touching up of the work to prepare it for casting.

    I returned from the sculpture course with Antonio di Tommaso a few days ago. It was a beautiful experience, a pleasure to work with him. My stay at Cida’s house was also great. I have spent some unforgettable days in Florence. Thank you very much for everything.

    I have to be honest, I was affraid not to be able to communicate with the teacher and therefore not be able to enjoy the class, but it all went really good. This program taught me so much. The atmosphere of Florence, the kindness and understanding of the teacher as well as the helpful, organized system that of Studiainitalia staff made it all worth it. I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to dive into an atmosphere of learning, open-mindedness and sharing.I spent 3 weeks in Florence, and I loved every bit of this experience.
