Screen Printing in Siena...
Our previous summer schools in Siena were in 2019, for students and printmakers of all abilities and enjoyed by all. The students came from various courses at Creative Arts, UWE, where I had been teaching for many years and we also had some home printmakers. Unfortunately, due to Covid, we had to wait a few years.
We have just finished two wonderful consecutive weeks in 2023 here in the 'Studio Giuggiolo', which is close to the San Marco gate and only twenty minutes from Il Campo in Siena. The accommodation is conveniently close to the studio and consists of a bedroom, communal areas and self-catering facilities. There is also an outside eating area for al fresco dining or chilling after a day's printing, with a glass of something refreshing! These visits also give you a flavour of life in Italy and this beautiful city. Wednesday morning is Siena Market and time to explore the sites this beautiful gothic city has to offer. It is a great chance to learn the language and meet many locals, as we are also members of the 'Snail Contrada'.
Summer (2023) was my first summer school since Covid time. We take only six students for each week which this year consisted of students and home printmakers with various experience in screen printing (some absolute beginners). The Studio Giuggiolo is now up and running. Contact me for more 2024 course information and to book your place...
