Developing drawing skills for children

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.

"Online courses customized to fit your specific needs." Hello, my name is Anna. I am a fashion designer and a creative consultant with over 3 years of experience in luxury fashion.

Talent doesn’t matter. Natural predisposition doesn’t exist. Drawing is a skill you can learn at any age. If you want to give shape to your ideas, you’re in the right place. My goal is to help each person develop their own expressive abilities, offering them the tools they need to grow confidently. Each lesson is tailored to the student and shaped by the connection we build together. We can focus on the fundamentals — like anatomy, shading, and perspective — or take a more expressive, storytelling-driven approach through comics and illustration. My lessons are open to people of all ages and learning styles, including those with special needs. Learning to draw means learning to understand yourself and the world around you. My teaching method is deeply student-centred. I believe that each person who chooses to draw is moved by a unique intention, whether it's mastering technical skills or exploring their own world through visual storytelling. That's why I tailor every lesson to support the individual goals of each student. For those who are more interested in improving their technical abilities, i provide structured, didactic materials. These include selected resources from established drawing manuals, as well as my own handouts and exercises focused on essential techniques such as anatomy, perspective, shading, the use of different tools and materials and much more. My aim is to make complex topics accessible and rewarding to learn. For students who are more interested in self-expression and storytelling, we work with creative expression exercises. These activities are more emotional and intuitive, designed to help students put themselves into their art, exploring their own identity, style and imagination. In all cases, I foster a safe and inspiring space where students can grow at their own rhytm, not following a one-size path.

Basic fundamentals of drawing all starts with shapes and shadows. Breaking down images into shapes and basic gestures will aid in the final product looking clean. You will learn how to break down images (ie; people, animals, buildings, etc) into basic shapes, and managable chunks.

In my work, I use both traditional techniques (watercolor, painting, pencils, engraving) and digital techniques to create illustrations and animations! With my 13 years of experience in the field, and 7 years of teaching experience, I can offer you a program based on your specific objectives. For example: - Start or improve in observational drawing, life model, sketching, painting... to have better knowledge in academic drawing, or create your own illustrations. - Create a portfolio/book to apply to art and animation film schools.

I’m a drawing teacher and artist living in Paris. Since 6 years, I provide drawing class to many publics, from school to urban sketching sessions. Since two years, I also give online drawing class for all public. I have an IPad, so I can share my screen to guide my student by drawing directly on it and show them some drawing technics as if we were on the same spot. Learning drawing is half about learning basics technics, like perspective, contrasts and human form, and half about trusting your own vision, by observation work or imagination exercices. My teaching program is always a combination of those elements.

This course will teach students to create art digitally, from sketching to fully rendered illustrations/paintings. General topics include drawing from reference, composition, perspective, color theory, rendering techniques, lighting, and more. The specific content for each class can be tailored to students based on what they want to learn, and students will have the freedom to choose the subjects of their artwork.

Painting and drawing are not just techniques—they are also powerful tools for presentation, mediation, and self-expression. This class will guide you through the essentials of painting and drawing, covering foundational skills such as perspective, anatomy, and color theory, as well as techniques for analyzing and critiquing artwork. From still life and portraiture to landscapes, abstract painting, and multimedia art, this course will support you in developing your unique visual language. Based on your individual goals and interests, I will create a tailored plan to help you achieve the best possible outcomes in your artistic journey.

In this class, you will learn the basics of how to paint a full-color and monochromatic portrait. You will learn the techniques of painting a portrait, color theory, blending, shading, highlighting, proportions, and proper mapping of features. This class will cover all the basics to further your skills to more advanced concepts. This class will be based on your progress and pace. Once a skill has been achieved, we will move on to applying it to different/more advanced skills. Our lessons at the beginning will be mastering shading and highlighting with shapes, and we will slowly advance to portrait painting since this is the basis of portraits. As an artist who specialises in realistic portrait paintings, I will give you feedback throughout our active practices to build healthy and correct habits.

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. But also be mindful that as we grow our interests can change and as 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 :)

You've been watching Blender tutorials for months... and you still make shit. (sorry for the vulgarity haha) I know exactly how you feel. That rage that rises when you spend 3 hours on YouTube looking for THE technique that will finally unlock your project (and which doesn't work -- obviously). That anxiety when you redo the tutorial identically but it doesn't work on YOUR model. And that voice in your head that says "give up, you're not cut out for this." (and let's not even talk about your parents/friends wondering what the hell you're doing and that maybe you should be doing something more "useful") You're swimming in an ocean of videos, forums, and conflicting advice. One day you are told to use this method or software, the next day you find out it is obsolete (WTF?). You collect techniques like stamps, but as soon as you want to create something personal, it's a total black hole. (And yes, copying a tutorial is easy, but when it comes to making your own projects, it's a different story...) The worst part? You start to believe the problem is you. That you're too stupid for 3D. That your computer is too crap. That Blender is too complicated. So... You change software, you upgrade your PC, you look for even more tutorials... but nothing changes. (Your progress is still at 0) The truth is, you don't need more information. You need someone to show you the 5% of Blender that really matters. Someone who makes you understand WHY it works instead of just making you "copy and paste". In 11 years in the 3D industry and 8 years of teaching, I've seen hundreds of students with exactly your problem. And you know what? The ones who make it through aren't any smarter than you. They just had someone show them the fundamentals that make everything else obvious. With me, you'll stop struggling with Blender. In just one hour a week, you'll experience those turning points that turn struggle into pleasure. From the very first lesson, you'll feel that "Eureka" moment. After 15 days, you'll have your first real results. And in 1 month, you'll be on your own. I don't throw a ready-made program at you. I adapt it to YOUR project, to YOUR goals. If you want to do character, we do character. If it's architecture, we do architecture. If it's a short film, we'll make your short film. And I repeat as many times as necessary until it is crystal clear to you. No more sleepless nights searching for solutions on Google. No more half-abandoned projects. No more feeling like you're going around in circles. We discuss your project, I'll see if I can help you, and if so, we'll start working on resolving your situation right away. Who am I ? Roman, - I have been in the industry for 11 years as the director of my 3D animation studio - Motion Live Pictures - I founded the 3D school - H3D2 8 years ago where I manage and train 4 teachers and already follow more than 160 students - I taught for 3 years at the French 3D school Rubika from first to fifth year. (as a Maya, Blender, Compositing and Postproduction teacher on After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some) I am focused on learning motivated by encouragement rather than punishment (grades) and I am certain that anyone can succeed in this field if they have a teacher who adapts to their constraints and who really knows how to explain the fundamentals. (which is clearly not the case for the majority, believe me) I only have 5 spots to offer. (and yes I still have to manage my studio and my school (!) - and that takes time ^^) Then I would put people on a waiting list. - During the first hour of class with me, you can see if my way of working suits you. (It should since I adapt to you, but you never know! :)) - Up to 4 lessons completed with me, you can ask for a full refund if you are not satisfied. Some bonus gifts that I'll send you after our first lesson: - The Blender Checklist: The essential things you need to know about the software. (You won't be overwhelmed by a mountain of information, just what you need.) - The "Digital Director" Checklist: Every step to truly make a 3D film from A to Z (+ mistakes to avoid) Isn't life beautiful? :) -> Book your first lesson with me now. We'll discuss your project, see if I can help, and if so, we'll start working on your situation right away.
