Frescoeing comes to Umbra!

Frescoes are everpresent in Italy, and practically everyone gets to the point that they wouldn’t cross a street to see another “early work of a minor Tuscan master.” But who wouldn’t cross a room to make a fresco? Like the new fresco room in Umbra’s Bartolo building. Umbra’s newest course, taught by Professor Bill Pettit, instructs students in the classic Italian buon fresco techniques. Have you ever seen the Sistine Chapel and wanted to give painting on fresh plaster a try? If so, check out the course description!
