The Renaissance Workshop

RSS on December 29, 2011 7:29 PM
The Renaissance Workshop follows the centuries old tradition of the education of emerging artists in the working studio of a professional artist. It is inspired by the artist workshops of Renaissance Italy. These workshops existed, and still exist, in all cultures and historical periods. It is and was in these workshops where the application of the "craft and science of art" was practiced and taught to the emerging artists of the next generation, centuries before art academies where established. It was, and still is, a creative environment where practice and theory work hand in hand. In these workshops of the past many fine works were produced and are now exhibited in museums and collections through out the world, and are the great treasures of human culture.
