I offer Workshops in Painting and Drawing, Plein Air in some of the most romantic spots of Italy for very small groups and individuals. I speak well Italian, English and German. We will be hiking, painting and drawing in the enchanting Nature of the Ligurian Coast, and I will share my personal favorite spots : Idyllic places on the rocks or under beautiful trees, with an incredible view above the Mediterranean Sea. There are different tours available between Genova Nervi, Portofino and Cinque Terre. The duration of the walk may vary between 20 minutes and 2 hours. When we have reached our special place for today, I will give an introduction of different techniques of drawing and watercolor painting. I will give individual advice for the stimulation of one’s individual creativity. My intention is not to teach how to realize a photorealistic painting as this takes years of practice. But we will be together enjoying the artistic process in a cheerful and relaxed way. We will create our own free compositions inspired by the beauty and peace of the blue sea, golden sun and green mountains. The Workshop is open for all levels, also for absolute beginners and advanced amateurs. After the Painting lesson, we will visit together an Italian Restaurant / Bar for Lunch. Other things to note For the Tours to Cinque Terre and Portofino Mountain the fees for trains and entrance (5Terre) are not included. For the Hiking on Monte Portofino you need good shoes and at least some experience in hiking on a mountain. If you prefer a totally relaxing tour, I advice you to book Nervi Parcs.

In a unique trip, away from the tourist flow, we will paddle along the Genoise east coast, where in the seventeen hundreds the Russian wheat was worked in local mills and pasta factories to produce excellent pasta, appreciated till the South America; we will paddle to "porticciolo Nervi" a small fishing harbour where we can land for a gelato stop. Then moving along the Anita Garibaldi promenade, till the east edge of the town, we arrive under Villa Giannettino Luxoro, a gorgeous bourgeois nineteen hundreds villa, standing on a vertical cliff, facing the sea. Then we move back to the starting point. And why not? We could have even a fantastic swim in each moment Other things to note This experience is doable for everybody, from beginners to skilled kayakers. Is this your very first time on a kayak? Don't worry, I'm a kayak instructor, it will be my pleasure to assist you!
