We couldn’t make the class and there were no other time options. Keep in mind when you book this that it is a long drawn out story to enter. Venice and get around. I have young kids and after traveling were in no mood to get up at 6:30am to start the trek into Venice. We lost out on $350.

Great experience. He was very patient with my mom and helped her to color in her drawing and helped to me understand how to use water colors

This was such a wonderful experience! Our host was so incredibly nice, and we loved our time with him. He chose a beautiful picturesque position for us to set up and gave lots of helpful instruction. The only reason I didn’t give all five stars is that I do think you need a little bit more skill for this class if you expect to have a completed painting at the end. None of us have watercolor experience, but both of my kids love art so we gave it a try. We needed more guidance than time would allow. It really wasn’t much of a downside to us because we had so much fun, but it’s good to know for managing expectations. There were just the four of us, my husband and my two kids, nine and 10. We would all do it again, in a heartbeat, and totally recommend it to anyone interested! Thank you for a wonderful morning in Venice!

Best thing we did on our mother & daughters trip to Venice! It's not common to get a private art lesson from a renowned working artist. Nicola was very kind and patient and went above and beyond to give us a full plein air watercolor lesson! We three (ages 18-50) highly recommend this memorable experience!!

What a fantastic way to spend a morning. Nicola was so patient and helpful explaining drawing our subject and how to paint using watercolours. We were on a quiet canal on a sunny morning away from the tourist chaos. Highly recommend taking his class to be inspired by Venice’s beauty and try something new.

Superb! Nicola was charming and did very well accommodating different artistic levels and expertise in the same group. He instinctively knew who wanted to be steered (helped) more and who wanted to just do their own thing! It was most enjoyable and I would highly recommend it as a great activity to do whilst in Venice.

This was a great experience with a fantastic artist. Nicola was very kind and patient showing us how to sketch and then do watercolor paintings. The reason I didn’t give this five stars is because we ran out of time and didn’t get to finish our paintings. My suggestion would be that we are already given the sketches to work with and get to spend most of our time doing the watercolor painting. (We spent more time sketching than painting.) But we had a great time!
