Overview

This is the only fresco painting experience on the Sorrento and Amalfi coasts.

You will take a dive into ancient Italian art and the beauty of the place.

Your instructor will teach you the secrets of fresco painting and tell you about local curiosities and traditions.

Our session begins with a visit to the studio of artist Aerma Polani and a brief discussion of the fresco technique used in Pompeii and Herculaneum two thousand years ago.

Then we will visit the artist's private residence, with its painted ceilings and magnificent ancient majolica.

Finally we will go up to the terrace where we will have fun painting while tasting an Aperitivo together and enjoying a magnificent sea view
