This is not a sightseeing tour or a traditional drawing class. It’s a chance to slow down, sketch outdoors and connect with Rome in a more personal way.
What you’ll experience
Together with a local guide Laura, you’ll observe one of Rome’s most iconic views from a new perspective. As you sketch, you’ll slow down and notice details that most visitors miss. Laura will guide you through the experience, but there is no pressure to create a perfect drawing. Before leaving, you’ll taste biscuits inspired by an ancient Roman recipe.
What you’ll take home
Your own personal sketch. A new way of looking at Rome. A creative memory that feels truly yours.
Is This Creative Rome Experience for You?
Couples looking for a memorable experience to share. Solo travelers seeking something more personal than a typical tour. Families who enjoy discovering and creating something new together. You’ll enjoy this experience if you love returning home with stories, not just photos, and you’re curious to slow down, observe Rome and express what you see — even if you’ve never drawn before. This experience may not be right for you if you’re looking for a fast-paced historical guided tour.

Meet Your Local artist
Hi, I’m Laura
For over thirty years, I’ve worked in travel, while exploring drawing and painting as a self-taught artist.
Along the way, I discovered that the places we remember most aren’t always the most famous ones, but those we experience in a personal way.
That’s why I created Sketch and Savor: not to teach you how to create a perfect drawing, but to help you slow down, notice more and experience Rome in your own way.
I’d love to share this creative experience with you.
