Mastering Painting & Drawing Techniques with Art History Insights

"Immerse yourself in the world of fine arts with a class designed to build technical skill and artistic understanding! As a fine arts graduate specializing in painting, I bring hands-on expertise in pencil drawing, watercolor, acrylic, and pastels. In addition to practical techniques, we’ll explore key movements in art history, providing context and inspiration to deepen your creative work. This class is ideal for beginners eager to learn foundational skills and for more experienced artists looking to refine their techniques while gaining historical insights. Together, we’ll work through form, color theory, and composition, enhancing your skills and understanding of art. Join me to explore the rich tradition of fine arts through practice and study!"

My Teaching Style: I believe every artist has their own voice, and my goal is to bring that voice to life. Each lesson begins with a foundational exercise tailored to your level—whether it’s exploring shading techniques, experimenting with color, or working on brush control. I guide you through practical demonstrations and then provide you the space to create freely with constructive feedback to support your growth. Alongside technique, I introduce art history elements to spark ideas and show how art can reflect your personal expression.

Let’s work together to refine your skills, build confidence, and bring your artistic vision to life!"

MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen. I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist. I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns. In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on. You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns. Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Idris
Painting Tutor: Discover and develop your artistic language
I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London. Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don't always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you! Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs. The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language. (Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.) Have questions? Don't hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

Become a PRO 3D Designer on 3ds Max in Interior Architecture!
Are you a student, architect, interior designer, or real estate agent? Or simply someone who would like to master photorealistic 3D renderings? I offer private lessons, both one-on-one and online, on Autodesk's 3ds Max software with the Corona rendering engine. Together, we'll explore how to best use 3ds Max for interior design projects. We will go through all the stages of modeling, starting with the assembly of the main "box", the import of the different objects and their modification if necessary, the adjustment of the lights and the cameras, to finish with the export of the renderings and the post-production on Photoshop. If you need help with a specific project, I can also help you optimize your scenes and render them faster and with better quality. I am available Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 9am and 7pm and travel to Nyon and the surrounding area. I will be delighted to guide you in this exciting world of photorealistic 3D renderings! *For the first course, we can establish your needs and skills, so that I can adapt the course to your profile.

Learn how to draw: If you can See, you can Draw :-)
A lot of people think they cannot draw. But before drawing, it is about "seeing". Actually if you can see, you can draw. Not only objects, but portraits, animals, whatever you want. By developing the aptitude of observing the reality using the right part of your brain, you learn how to draw what you really see instead of drawing what you think you already know about this reality. This technique was a revelation as it allowed me to progress quickly when I was young. It's on this base that I will help you to learn another way of looking at things around you and show you some tricks to overcome difficulties as perspective, foreshorten,...

history, geography, archaeology, art history.
History is the vector that allows us to better understand our society, the world in which we live. It is essential for general culture. The level of the course will adapt to the level of the student, from primary to university. It is also possible to adapt it in relation to an exam or competition to be taken, or to a person wishing to complete their general knowledge on a particular subject.
