Gianluca is an excellent teacher. I have been attending his courses for 7 years now and he has taught me so much about looking, drawing and painting. One of the most interesting experiences I have had with him is when I am looking at for example someone’s nose and I cannot see the structure clearly, he makes a drawing and as I look at the drawing my vision of the nose changes and I see it in three dimensions as opposed to flat. Seeing him draw and paint is very helpful as it’s not just theory and talking he shows the process clearly in a practical way. Gianluca is very patient and helpful and looking at my work he can see clearly what is needed. He is able to explain how to find the exact colour needed and it is a joy to watch him mix colours. He uses a limited palette and it is incredible how he is able to find all the various skin tones for each model. I highly recommend Gianluca as an art teacher and mentor.
