The Studio in Gothenburg is the best of the three, trust me ^^

But a vacation to Florence isn't bad either :p

Check :) For now I was mainly looking at the one in Gothenburg, since I have a Swedish boyfriend so we could combine it with visiting his parents.

Alright, cool! You should check out our different locations as well. The studio in Florence has different courses than the one in Gothenburg and the same for New York. There are also other ateliers that you can check out, my buddy Tobias will soon be teaching at an atelier in Germany

Yeah the main site is kinda weird to navigate. It is a 3 year program but you can basically stop whenever you want or take breaks as you see fit. If you just want to study drawing, then you don't have to continue when you switch to painting

And it's a 3 year program? I find it hard to find practical information on their website

Wow. 17 grand a year. Never seen that kind of money in my life! Haha!

16 Aug 20:39

Tristan Berndt

--

Yes, the drawing/painting and sculpting programs are full time.

16 Aug 20:38

Eyliana

--

Is it fulltime studies?

16 Aug 20:37

Eyliana

--

If the average is 30, I first can save up and then apply :P

16 Aug 20:37

Tristan Berndt

--

Um, I'm probably the youngest (20) and the oldest is like 50 something. I guess the average age is around 30

It's really just to show an interest in figurative/representational art. What almost all classical art educations look for is interest rather than skill. They're there to train that skill and sometimes, less skill means less to un-learn, haha ^^

16 Aug 20:36

John

And what's the average age of students. So I'll know if should start dying my graying hair.

16 Aug 20:35

Eyliana

--

Yeah, at least in the summer courses :)

16 Aug 20:34

Brian Hermelijn

--

Oh eyliana is interested, :D

16 Aug 20:33

Eyliana

@Tristan; What is kinda the minimum skill level to get in? I saw some of the requirements on the website (Show intrest in master studies, draw from life etc.) But how good does it need to be? Do you have an indication for that?

16 Aug 20:30

Brian Hermelijn

--

Shall do if I do have, :)

16 Aug 20:27

Tristan Berndt

If anyone wants to know anything about what I do there, what we study/how etc. you just have to ask

16 Aug 20:27
