There is no better program for Italian Plaster training than at the ACADMY of WALL ARTISTRY; Our grads all say so. VIZ:

There is still time to enroll for our Italian Plaster Classic Intensive, and COLOR Intensive Course for professionals, from 21 to 23 February. Here is our latest review from a private student here in November 2023:

Frankie F.

I attended two venetian plaster classes prior to attending the classes at Buon Fresco. One was a 5 day class and another a 3 day class. Having taken the three that I did, if I had to only take one, I would 100% choose Buon Fresco.

Communication was very excellent and documents were organized in a timely manner. All my questions were answered in a clear and concise manner while organizing our class dates. There was nothing I was uncertain of when I showed up for the first day of class.

As for the classes themselves, there are nuances and insights to Victoria's instruction that distinguish her from the rest and let you know you're in the presence of someone who has mastered this craft. Beyond the application of plaster there are courses offered which the other classes ( I attended ) didn't address at all. Most notably among them is the color theory class. The ability to color match and create custom color for clients will infinitely distinguish you from everyone else. Marbling courses are a must for anyone looking to further distinguish themselves and watching Victoria take a blank white board and transform it into a piece of marble is worth the cost of admission alone. Additionally there is a business course offered which contained valuable insights into industry specific best practices. There are also a few additional, more advanced courses, which I didn't have the time to take unfortunately.

All that being said, I can't recommend Buon Fresco enough. Highest marks for sure. If you're interested in learning venetian plaster, based on my experiences, this is the school to go to, period.

Be sure to look at the 'not recommended reviews' also. (a peculiar aspect of the YELP web page.

CHECK THIS OUT!
Santiago Aguilera graduated the Venetian Plaster series here at the Academy, just a few weeks ago.

Here's his first job doing Venetian Plaster as Marble!! He'll be very busy in his home state, AND his native country where they have multi million dollar houses right on the ocean!

Santi is very talented.
And he benefitted from a very fine training program.
