Artiste painter/sculpter is looking FOR A PERSON who likes to help in my studio /galleria in Marche (Fermo) Italy
preparing canvas for paintings (in the ancient way), helping making of sculptures, gips and wax, mols, framing paintings, work on paper, preparing for exhibitions in the Palazzo/ but also outside, possibly posing, etc.
You can have also lessons in drawing, painting with oil paint and tempera if you wants as an extra possibility and follow the masterclass, but a modest contribution will be asked, for material etc.
I bought the Palazzo 2 years ago and it was abandoned for 40 years, so there's a lot of tasks (most of then outside of the Palazzo). there is a church besides ( 18- century San Eurosia ) and others attached constructions ,so I need help,
I want to create a culturel center in those buildings beside my studio and gallery.
Inside of the Palazzo everything is great and new, also the Galerie and the Studio, the problem is the outside part.
