Between two sessions, targeted exercises will allow you to progress in a measurable way, in small steps. In drawing, there are no miracles: it is practice, training, perseverance, which are the sources of progress. All materials will be provided to you (pencils, papers). During the first session, a series of examples of my creations will offer you a concrete overview of the techniques and styles that I can help you master.

The course also delivered in English and Portuguese. Holder of a Master in Fine Arts from the University of Porto, I am passionate about drawing. With a great experience in illustration, I have collaborated in the development of several children's books and carried out numerous exhibitions in Switzerland, Portugal and Spain. Having a great desire to share my know-how and my experience with any interested person, regardless of age, I would like to invite you to come to my workshop to teach you how to express your feelings and passions through drawing. In the workshop, you will learn to draw through different techniques, processes, and thanks to my experience, I will give you some tips on different themes and supports. Classes will also allow you to change the way you see and represent the world. A theme chosen in advance will allow us to start the workshop, which can focus on a technique, an artist, a color, a text, etc. This will be our starting point. At the end of each class, there will be a small moment of relaxation where you will be invited to talk about your achievements, your difficulties or your opinions. Drawing is much more than a way to communicate!

Graduate of ECAL in ArtsVisuels, as well as the preparatory school of fine art in the city of Paris, I offer my services to learn how to do drawing observation, cultivate creativity, learn the practice of watercolor, of Indian ink. I also give volunteer drawing lessons every Wednesday afternoon for children and adults, and am therefore able to work with young and old, all levels combined. Whether for introductory courses, awakening sessions with children, or for the specific request of a project to achieve. Art is an integral part of my life and it is with pleasure that I try to share his practice. I have my own art practice next door, where I mainly do sculpture. I also teach sculpture classes, and introductory courses in my workshop.

The objective of the course is to allow the participant to realize their artistic desires. To do this, it is difficult to define a precise path: everyone has their own abilities and shortcomings, the organization of the course will be around the student. Among the different tools that we work with, we can find, among other things, anatomy, composition, perspective, color theory, the study of movement, the principles of animation... On a more technical level, I am capable and have the necessary equipment to teach both traditional and digital drawing (the same for animation). The courses will mainly be composed of two parts, the first of theoretical explanations, analysis of artists' works and implementation of creative processes... the second of evaluation of the student's work, with in-depth feedback and concrete processes to put in place to improve.

Program To acquire the tools necessary for drawing according to model, the teacher will teach you techniques which allow above all to exercise your gaze. He offers you a path adapted to your objectives and accompanies you in your stylistic quest by transmitting strategies offering you the possibility of finding a way of drawing that suits you. Objectives and skills At the end of this course, you will have developed technical skills (construction of space, structure of the human anatomy, distribution of shadows and lights, dynamics of the body in movement) and identified the challenges of this approach. The practice of observational drawing will also lead you to a better understanding of your perceptual intelligence. Finally, it will invite you to make use of faculties that are usually not very mobilized, thus thinning the link between body and mind. This course is aimed at both novices and beginners. You can bring your equipment, but will also find what you need on site. The price includes a package for the engagement of the models.

This visual arts class offers students a structured introduction to both the practice and theory of art. Through hands-on activities such as drawing, painting, and working with mixed media, students will develop their technical skills and creativity. At the same time, they will explore important art movements, styles, and artists from different cultures and historical periods. The course encourages students to think critically about what art means, how it is created, and how it reflects the world around us. Lessons include discussions, visual analysis, and short readings to help students understand how art connects to ideas like identity, culture, and history. Students are guided to express their own thoughts and experiences through their artwork, while also learning to describe and reflect on the work of others. By the end of the course, they will have built a small portfolio and gained greater confidence in both making and understanding visual art. The class can be conducted in English or French.

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.

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.
