Question ID: 186612
I'm interested in studying oil painting intensively during the months
of July OR August.  Can you direct me to high-quality, serious art
schools or courses that offer intensive, immersion courses in these
subjects for this time period?  I can travel, so location is not the
most important factor--instead, I am interested more in the quality of
the faculty and the program.  An ideal location in the United States
would be California, and possible locations in Europe would include
England, Spain or Italy.  Many thanks in advance for your help!

Dear askone-ga:

After completing my research, I am providing you a link (see below)
which includes almost all of the top schools of arts and various
workshops around the world. I have also listed names, contacts and a
brief description of some of the schools in the list so you get a
basic idea of what can you expect from this list.

 As a Google researcher, we usually try to provide our customers with
a variety of links and other information but I think this sole link
have enough information that anyone may need in order to find the
school of their choice. Browsing through the list, I researched the
individual schools alphabetically and sorted out some schools and
workshops that might match your needs. As you will see that I have
provided 10 schools and 10 workshops, which means that I searched unto
a certain point (say until ‘B’ or ‘C’) and listed some schools of
interest. Other I leave for you because it is almost a sea of
knowledge. Furthermore, I think a Google researcher can only give
suggestion to an artist because an artist is as varied in the
selection as in paintings. In concluding, I think the link is worth
your money and my time. Following is the link:

http://www.artschools.com/
(please click on ‘Art schools and Art colleges’ OR Workshops and
special programs in Art’ on the screen. You can also search by USA and
Worldwide.)

You will also encounter alphabets such as C, B, A and M. These
reflect, Courses, Bachelors, Masters and Associate etc)
