Antonio is an apprenticeship who tells about the steps and activities about fresco paintings. The story is set in Italy around the 15th century. After learning about frescos, students can create their own by painting on their backs. I would stick a heavy sheet of paper underneath their desks.

Students would be instructed to lie on their backs, and draw with markers or crayons. This is very similar to the way artists painted cathedrals. Show Less
