Meet your host

Hi, I’m Laura, your local artist and host.
I created Sketch & Savor to offer travelers a slower and more personal way to experience the Colosseum.
This is not a formal drawing class. I’ll be there to help you get started with a few simple suggestions, so you can relax, observe and create your own interpretation—without worrying about doing it “right”.
For me, sketching is a way to look more closely, enjoy the moment and turn it into a personal memory of Rome.
I look forward to sketching with you!
