Dear Friends:
I am happy to announce the schedule of courses available to students in Summer 2012 at my home and studio in northern Italy. My home is in a small village, Mornico Losana, in a beautiful area called "Oltrepò' Pavese", near the city of Pavia. It is surrounded by green hills, vineyards, excellent wineries, and bucolic landscapes.
Slowly, step-by-step, we are restoring these old buildings… I am excited to can say again "Welcome to my world!"
After coming to Mornico, you will take back home more than a technical knowledge. You will contact the essence of my artwork and that you will have a sensory experience: breathing in the scent of blossoming trees coming on the wind from the valley, you will taste the Italian spirit. Your experience would be enhanced by visiting nearby castles and especially the old town of Pavia, filled with history and Romanic style churches.
We are located about lest of two hours southeast of Milan. During the free day or in the evenings after the classes, it will be possible to visit old wineries and taste the great wines that these hills offer us, their golden muscatel grapes among the best in the world. We are just in the middle of "The Riesling Valley". There are a lot of beautiful things to see in the area including various summer village festivals.
My new studios are well equipped, comfortable and suitable for accommodating students. Class prices include all materials and lunches during the days of class.
The menu will vary; will consist of all Italian products and very traditional food, so you will experience "a taste of Italy" each day.
