Opportunity in Italy for Artists

This looks like a great experience for an adventurous traveling artist. Have a look at their website. This would be an amazing way to spend some time indulging in your particular mode of artistry.

ART WORKSHOPS IN ITALY

In our fifteenth year, The Abruzzi Mountain Workshop (Sep 27 – Oct 4) continues its innovative drawing/painting/mixed media program, IN VIAGGIO, on the intriguing island of ISCHIA. Situated in the Bay of Naples, it is known for its rich Greek origins, as well as its ancient thermal waters.

As in our other programs, we integrate the textures of Italy with mixed-media, collage & site specific work. We welcome both beginners and more experienced artists.

• Mornings will be spent working from the hotel or in superb outdoor locations among cobbled streets, shaded piazzas and stunning Mediterranean promontories.
• Afternoons will be available for island excursions and partaking of the lovely island spas.

The workshop will be conducted by Patricia Antonucci and Barbara Schaefer.
We are two New York based artists who have lived and worked extensively in Italy, joining our creative forces for a week of exciting and energizing approaches.
