I am really interested in reviving the quality of art that was done during the 19th century and I believe the only way to that is through a solid education. I started to receive some classical education around when I was 14 but it was only a couple times a week. It be nice to be able to study like the old masters used to - intensely and for about 6 to 8 years. First finish the Florence Academy of Art and then do more private study with my teacher back home, Micheal Chelich. Aftewards I would plan on traveling around europe seeing fine works in person. Once I settle down I would also like to teach alongside the work that I would produce. As a teacher I would want to have a program that teaches in very traditional methods and has tradtitional ideas/values behind it. Even though I would mainly want to be a painter I have recently been learning sculpture on the side and find that extremely interesting - it might be another thing that could grow and develop.
I am a student at the Florence Academy of Art that has some experience in classical training (mainly drawing) and wants to further deepen his knowledge in this field.
