It was a very rainy day in Florence when I arrived at Hector's studio, He was waiting for me outside of his residence to show me in. He also called a cab for me when the workshop was over and waited outside with me until the cab arrived. Very nice! The workshop was amazing. Definitely one of my favourite activities of the whole trip! I would highly recommend the workshop, as Hector is able to assist anyone in completing a beautiful piece, whether you are an experienced artist or someone who has no "art" background whatsoever. loved it so much, that I am now continuing to do frescos on my own.
Hector was terrific. He was so personable and very clear with instructions and help. He treated us as if we were his best students. Because of his personality, we felt very comfortable and had a wonderful experience. Highly recommend it.
The days coordination could have been better if we had done the jewish tour midday and had a sense of how long the walk was between locations within the Jewish tour and that the Fresco tour was near the end of the Jewish tour. Will cross reference this.
