Buon Fresco Foundations Video Tutorials
Everyone starts with our prerequisite - Buon Fresco Foundations 5 Video Tutorials Set (5 Volumes) - a part of the FS Membership package that also includes free consultations. These tutorials were created by our founder after 15 years of teaching fresco painting to all levels of artists. You should begin the study with a clear understanding of the medium, terminology and process. You will be able to take full advantage of our advanced fresco programs after watching the tutorials (yes, tutorials enable you to work on your own successfully and with confidence). Each set comes with a free consultation (see FAQ) with our fresco experts and permanent discount (see FAQ) on fresco tools and materials at FrescoShop.com

Individually Developed Curriculum
Our method is a style independent approach. Every student gets a personal curriculum based on their work and desires. We use and refer to a variety of traditional fresco styles to illustrate the principles and technical details, Our goal is to enable and assist you in adapting your own style to a new medium, to propel your career and enhance your art through fresco. Our goal is "To see fresco being painted in every town!" and we don't want them look the same :)
Our Fresco School OnLine Apprentice Program enables each students to study remotely while maintaining a full access to one-on-one guidance, individual curriculum, private consultations and reviews, study and practice guides, video tutorials and the community of peers.
