What People Say
"I had never painted before, but something drew me to Juano’s plein air session by the Arno. He made me feel completely at ease, guiding me step by step while letting me explore. By the end of the class, I had created something I was proud of — and I’ll never forget the feeling of painting under the Tuscan sun. Juano’s passion is contagious, and his way of teaching is both inspiring and approachable."
"As a self-taught illustrator, I was looking to improve my use of color and composition. Juano’s classes in the streets of Florence gave me exactly that: clear teaching, adapted to my level, and in an incredibly inspiring setting. He helped me break through technical blocks and see the city through a painter’s eyes. Highly recommended."
"Tomar clases de pintura al aire libre con Juano fue una de las experiencias más enriquecedoras de mi viaje por Italia. Pintar rodeado de historia, con la guía de alguien tan apasionado por el arte y la ciudad, hizo que cada sesión fuera única."
