Daniel
(Digital) Art classes for art lovers and beginners.
Do you want to learn the basics of drawing? Or are you already past that level? Do you want to draw on paper (with pencils) or on a screen? Do you want to learn the basics of 2D animation? All for a very reasonable price? We can do it! Nice to meet you, I'm Daniel. I'm a (private) art teacher, I'm also a freelance artist and have been working as one for about 7 years. I'm looking for students in Utrecht, I have a teaching space available in my apartment (I can share my address when you contact me), but am also able to travel to your desired space within the city. I can also teach via webcam, but I do recommend my in-person classes, seeing as they're more immersive and educational. I unfortunately do not speak Dutch (yet), but am confident we can overcome any potential language barrier we come across. I have the most experience in teaching teenagers and preteens, so I think we would definitely be a good match if you're a parent or guardian looking for a teacher for your child. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Cécile
Illustration - BD - digital arts (Photoshop, InDesign)
Associate illustrator in Plastic Arts, I suggest that you put my talents at your service. We can create a course together according to your project: a youth album? A comic book ? In watercolor, in collage, on computer? I can offer you exercises to help you progress or give you progressively guidance and feedback on your project already underway (workshop).

Eyon
Graduated from a digital arts school, I give digital drawing lessons
I have a bachelor's degree in digital arts, obtained at Saint Luc in 2016. During my studies I did live modeling, had courses in color, 2D animation, perspectives and character design. I mainly draw with a graphics tablet. I explore different styles but particularly focus on character drawing. It is this flexibility that I wish to transmit during my lessons. Learn to look at an image, understand the way the artist composes it, then learn to reproduce a style. Not copying, but really understanding and being able to reuse this style for original creations.

Amir
Professional drawing and painting course in different techniques and styles
Professional teacher of drawing and painting in different techniques and styles, over 10 years of specialized training with people of different ages, portrait designer. By seeing my artworks as well as the artworks of my students who have participated in the courses so far, you will be completely convinced that this training is different and different from all other trainings. Portrait design commissions are also accepted. If you would like a portrait of you or someone you love drawn, just send me the photo you want.

Adeline
Drawing / painting course and introduction to graphic design (photoshop, illustrator - vector drawing)
Dynamic and creative, I am very patient and I want to encourage you in a positive way and focus on the progress you are making and your strengths. After my bachelor's degree in computer graphics, I did a master's degree in communication and performing arts. I then moved to London for a few months where I started by giving French lessons via this platform. I did various internships in audiovisual centers as well as in a fablab (3D printing, laser cutting, vector design, etc.) I have drawn all my life, whether on a course sheet margin, canvas, wall or graphics tablet. During my training in computer graphics, I developed better drawing techniques and I learned to use software such as Photoshop, Illustrator (vector drawing), After Effect (motion design), Premiere Pro (video editing). If you are really new to computers and more basic programs, I am also here to help. In my opinion, it is easier to learn when we talk about things that interest us. This is why I will ask you to share your hobbies and interests so that I can learn about them in order to prepare an attractive and appropriate lesson. The computer / artistic field allows us a great freedom of subject. We can try multiple techniques: whether in drawing, painting or computer graphics.

Luc
Cartoons / Comic Strip / Digital 2d / Digital 3d
Graduate artist, having already given several private lessons, offers a course for young and old explorers in drawing. I teach the basics of drawing such as structure, composition, proportions, perspective and then sketching. We will explore the basics of comics and if the student wants to go further, I offer courses on Photoshop. Photoshop is very versatile, I teach the basics of digital painting, but also photo manipulation, mattepainting, and concept art. For the more adventurous, I propose a course of digital sculpture on Zbrush. Zbrush is a powerful program of digital sculpture, I teach to create characters, buildings, creatures (models frequently used in movies and video games today). If you enjoy artistic exploration and love movies and video games, then you're in the right place! For children from 4 to 6 years, I advise to follow the drawing classes on paper.

Learning to draw is first of all learning to look
I am a very passionate person when it comes to colors, designs and crafts. I like to teach these subjects as much as I can. We will not only learn how to draw and color, but rather how to do them with a lot of love and joy. With concrete exercises during a session ideally of 2 hours, I will teach you to look differently at the things that surround us and "tips" to face the difficulties and to make you evolve quickly, tailor-made according to your expectations.
