Présentation

Hi, I’m an architecture student with a strong passion for visual storytelling, photography, and design.

My work focuses on capturing spaces in a way that feels intentional and visually striking — whether that’s architecture, urban environments, or everyday moments. I’m particularly interested in how composition, light, and perspective can completely change the way a space is experienced.

Alongside my studies, I’ve developed skills in photography, layout design, and creative direction, which I now use to help others improve their visual work. I understand what it’s like to start from scratch, so my teaching approach is clear, practical, and easy to follow.

I specialise in helping beginners:

Improve their photography using just their phone
Understand composition and framing
Develop a clean, consistent visual style
Build confidence in their creative work

My lessons are relaxed, supportive, and tailored to each student. Whether you’re looking to improve your photos for personal use, social media, or a portfolio, I’ll help you develop skills you can actually use.

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.

Ce cours est un accompagnement personnalisé de projets graphiques, destiné aux étudiants, jeunes professionnels ou créatifs souhaitant confronter leur travail à un regard professionnel, ancré dans des contraintes réelles de production.

Nous travaillerons à partir de vos propres projets (print, identité visuelle, illustration, affiche, branding, communication digitale...), en abordant à la fois les aspects créatifs, techniques et stratégiques : intention graphique, cohérence visuelle, lisibilité, hiérarchisation, choix typographiques, couleurs, formats et adaptation aux supports.

L’objectif n’est pas seulement d’« améliorer un visuel », mais de comprendre pourquoi faire certains choix, comment défendre une intention, répondre à un brief client, et produire un travail juste, efficace et professionnel, comme en agence ou en freelance.

Le cours s’adapte entièrement à votre niveau, à vos objectifs (portfolio, projet scolaire, projet client, reconversion, pratique personnelle) et à votre rythme.

Hello to all curious parents!
I am not an ordinary babysitter — I am first and foremost a facilitator of creative and educational workshops for children.
With a solid background in drawing and painting, as well as a TOEFL certification, I offer fun sessions where your children explore the world of colors, shapes and English, all while having fun.
In the program :
🎨 Drawing and painting classes (pencils, watercolor) adapted to each age group
🌍 Introduction to English through songs, stories and games
🎬 Discovering cartoons as a tool for learning and expression
✨ Creation of educational games that stimulate imagination and motor skills
My goal: to transform every moment into a creative experience, where the child learns to express themselves, to observe and to create with pleasure — while naturally developing their ear for English.
Ideal for curious, creative children, or those who simply want to spend a different kind of afternoon, with their hands in the paint and their heads in the stars!

📍 Home or online sessions — In Bordeaux and surrounding areas.
📩 Feel free to contact me to design a custom workshop for your child!

"Industrial drawing" or "technical drawing", whether manual or computer-aided (CAD, CAM...),
is first and foremost a language or graphic communication tool with precise rules.
This language, largely standardized internationally (ISO: International Standard
Organization), can be considered a universal language used in the same way
all over the world.
Industrial drawing is used by technicians, engineers, and designers to communicate
from the initial idea of a product to its design and production. All products, machines and
Various systems are first designed and defined graphically before considering their
manufacturing.

Le propos de ces ateliers est d’aborder la peinture par un biais, par exemple l’improvisation, sans recherche précise, simple exercice.
Si la possibilité nous est offerte, de nous engager dans une proposition créative, encadrée, sans jugement ni pression, nous pouvons devenir créateur et découvrir notre propre source d’imagination. Il s'agit avant tout de se laisser porter par le plaisir, d'expérimenter cette énergie comme un jeu et une source de bien-être. Il est essentiel de quitter les notions présupposées selon lesquelles “mon art” devrait avoir cette forme plutôt qu’une autre. Nous cherchons la surprise. Ces ateliers sont ouverts à tous, sans prérequis.
Techniques et processus originaux pour mettre en confiance et ouvrir un champ d’expérimentation inaccoutumé.

Ce cours s’adresse aux élèves qui souhaitent apprendre à dessiner, développer leur univers visuel ou préparer une entrée en école d’art. Illustrateur, concept artist et enseignant en arts visuels, j’accompagne depuis plusieurs années des étudiants et des créatifs dans l’apprentissage du dessin académique, de l’illustration, du character design, du concept art et de la narration visuelle.

Les cours sont adaptés au niveau et aux objectifs de chaque élève. Nous pouvons travailler les bases du dessin comme l’observation, les proportions, la perspective, la lumière, la composition et l’anatomie, mais aussi des approches plus avancées comme la création de personnages, de décors, de planches de recherches, de portfolios ou de projets personnels.

Pour les élèves qui visent une prépa ou une école d’art, je propose également un accompagnement méthodique pour construire un dossier cohérent, développer une identité visuelle et gagner en exigence dans la présentation du travail.

Ma pédagogie repose sur une progression claire, des exercices ciblés, des démonstrations, des retours précis et un suivi adapté au rythme de chacun. L’objectif est de faire progresser l’élève durablement, en lui donnant à la fois des bases solides, une méthode de travail et davantage de confiance dans sa pratique.
