The best decision I ever made was to attend the course, Sculpting the Bust in Clay at the Sicily Artist Retreat. The founder and talented artist, Rosetta set the tone for the artist to experience Marsala’s beauty, culture and food. We were given home cooked meals for lunch and went on daily trips to learn about the culture and history of the area. Every detail was flawless. Many thanks to Annie, and Bernard, to making everyone feel the comforts of home. The accommodation and the service at the Baglio Custera was impeccable and the food deserves a Michelin star.
It was an honor and the highlight of my trip to be taught by the incomparable Dionisio Cimareilli, world-know master sculptor. Dionisio shares his knowledge of sculpting and techniques with each artist at their own pace and has a flair for teaching that engages hunger in one’s soul to learn more.
This lifetime opportunity, lessons learned and beautiful, talented people that I have met will forever be embedded in my memories.
