WORKSHOPS: photos on flickr | blog
I hold sketching workshops and sketchwalks both in Italy than abroad. As a member and instructor of Urban Sketchers no profit association, I have held workshops at many international Urban Sketchers Symposiums and I organized local Urban Sketching Workshops in Naples and Volterra, Tuscany. I hold a Drawing on Location course at Sant'Anna Institute (Sorrento) and workshops for the Alfred State College abroad programs with architecture students.
