The Novel

ANTONIO CUPOLINO

I really enjoy my time at Novel Academy. It's a welcoming environment, where the classrooms feel calm and familiar, making every moment enjoyable and stimulating. I started completely from scratch, and after just the first month, I noticed a huge change in my drawing. The people who accompany you on this journey—I wouldn't call them teachers, because it's not rigid or academic—are incredibly dedicated to helping you truly learn. They help you understand where you're going wrong, explain it to you patiently, and above all, guide you in improving clearly and effectively, but always respecting your pace. The Novel Academy students have created something special: a place where you can grow without pressure, with passion, discussion, and a lot of care.

The Novel Academy is the ideal place to cultivate your passions and escape the city routine. Since I started the painting course, I've found it a welcoming, cheerful, and peaceful place, perfect for relaxing for a few hours while pursuing your favorite hobbies. The teachers, Stefano, Sabrina, Andrea, and Marco, are always available, cheerful, and incredibly knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Discovering the academy was like rediscovering myself. I found a light-hearted, family-friendly, and cheerful environment, a perfect blend of art and lightheartedness. I started with the basic drawing course and am already on my third renewal. The teachers are very professional, but at the same time they always make you feel like you're in the right place, even if you have so much to learn. The courses are very varied and allow anyone to attend thanks to the various time slots. Proud to have chosen you today and always!

From the first day I set foot in the Academy, I knew it was the place for me: excellent, helpful, and welcoming teachers; a relaxed atmosphere; and kind fellow travelers make the Novel Academy a small oasis of peace where you can learn without fear of judgment. If you're unsure whether to treat yourself to that drawing course you've long dreamed of but never had the courage to take, don't hesitate and come try it!

I've been attending the Novel Academy for about a year now. I take the drawing class on Tuesday afternoons and the oil painting class on Wednesdays. For years, I've been looking for serious courses to learn drawing and painting techniques, and I finally stumbled upon this "place of wonders..." Every time I arrive, I'm greeted by Stefano and Sabrina's smiles and affection. The friendly and cheerful atmosphere, the total lack of judgment, the stimulation and appreciation are the qualities that underpin the high-level technical teaching that Stefano and the other teachers at the school impart. I'm very grateful to Stefano for guiding me to unleash talents I never thought I had. I look at the drawings and paintings I've made and feel profound joy, still amazed by what I see. I'm so happy with this wonderful journey ♥️🥰

I've been attending the Novel Academy for a year now and I can say it feels like home. The environment is relaxed, fun, and stimulating, and Stefano, Andrea, and Marco are wonderful: helpful, friendly, and at the same time extremely professional. It's an inclusive, informal, and creative space where you can take some time to do what you love, at your own pace. No matter your starting level, this academy is definitely for you: I'd never picked up a paintbrush before, and yet I found it easy to learn from scratch because I was given excellent guidance and support. After a year, I've made incredible improvements. If you love art and are looking for a space free of competition and performance, just fun, peace, and creativity, this is the place for you.

I've been a student at Novel Academy for two years now, and I'm enjoying it so much that, after drawing, I'm also taking the oil painting course this year. The environment is absolutely peaceful and pleasant, and the teachers, professional and friendly, make you feel at ease and will bring out the artist in you and help you express yourself to the fullest.

Feel at home and learn to draw and paint!! A safe space where you can unplug from your weekly routine and immerse yourself in colors and creativity, with background music and classmates, is an experience I can't live without. With Stefano and the other teachers who will welcome and pamper you, you'll discover a talent that each of us has; try it and believe it! I'm super happy with this choice and highly recommend it 😁

Novel Academy is a very welcoming and inclusive place. From the first trial lesson, you can feel the warm atmosphere created by the teachers, but also by the other students towards newcomers. It's a moment of relaxation and personal satisfaction that allows you to unwind throughout the week. You won't believe how naturally you improve from lesson to lesson. It's truly worth it.

The perfect place to turn your hobby or talent into a passion: the warm, family-like atmosphere and the welcoming teachers make you feel immediately at ease, while also leaving you the space to enjoy a couple of hours of independent time. The drawing course was like a "maybe sooner or later" for me, and thanks to the technical advice, in the space of four months I found myself creating a portrait I never thought I could do. 😍 I absolutely recommend the course and the academy in general!!!

I've been attending Novel Academy for over six months now. I've had the opportunity to learn watercolor techniques with my classmates every Thursday evening from 7:30 to 9:30 PM. But this academy isn't just a place to learn a new technique or refine it with its teachers; it's also a place where you can pursue your passion for art and unwind for a few hours with a touch of lightheartedness. I highly recommend this school; even just trying it out will clearly demonstrate its potential.
