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.

Are you willing to learn drawing or painting? Do you wish to improve what you already know?

I graduated from an art school where I learned all the important classical techniques of drawing, painting and sculpture. I would like to pass on the knowledge I have acquired through my studies and practice and give those who so wish the opportunity to go on a journey into the world of art and improve their language and technique.
The lessons are open to all levels.

The techniques covered range from drawing with pencil, charcoal and pastel chalk to all painting styles (watercolor, oil, acrylic, tempera). You have the opportunity to experiment on different types of paper (with different weights and colors) and canvases.

The topics change from lesson to lesson and can range from the human body to the landscape to the wildlife, depending on your preferences and desires.

Particular attention is paid to the method so that the finished work is clean, pleasant and as expressive as possible.

¿Siempre has querido dibujar un cómic pero las academias tradicionales no te acaban de convencer?
¿Quieres emprender una carrera dentro del diseño pero el dibujo se te resiste?
¿Quieres aprender una nueva forma de expresarte, pensar y vivir?

Si has contestado si a alguna de estas preguntas puedo ayudarte, sino probablemente tambien XD.
Dame la oportunidad y en pocas clases te sorprenderá ver de lo que eres capaz.

This combination of art and English class will help children explore their creative ability and, at the same time, gain new language skills.

We can discuss any medium you want your child to explore and I will create a suitable lesson for each class. Tailored classes with interesting artistic topics will provide extra motivation for students and encourage them to remember various information from the class.

Join me and get creative using different art techniques while you boost the English language!

*** I will provide materials for this class, but if you have a specific request that requires special equipment/materials please be ready to prepare/bring them to the class!

Learn art history in a visual and practical way. These classes are designed for middle and high school students, although I also have experience preparing for university and doctoral exams, adapting the content to each student's level.

I use images, examples, and audiovisual resources to make concepts easier to understand and memorize, making classes more dynamic and entertaining. Ideal for preparing for exams, academic papers, or simply to develop a passion for art.

Online or in-person classes, tailored to each student's pace and needs. Write to me and discover a new way to learn Art History!

Mis clases se adaptan a cada estudiante:

Niños: trabajamos con actividades lúdicas y creativas que estimulan la imaginación, el color y la experimentación con diferentes materiales.
Adultos: me enfoco en la técnica, la práctica consciente y la construcción de un estilo propio, respetando el ritmo y objetivos de cada persona.

Enseño diversas disciplinas artísticas: dibujo a lápiz, coloreado, pintura en varias técnicas (acuarela, acrílico, óleo), ilustración digital, así como la creación de personajes y escenarios. Gracias a esta variedad, mis alumnos pueden explorar un aprendizaje completo y elegir el camino artístico que más les inspire.

Mi metodología combina teoría y práctica con ejercicios progresivos, pensados para que mejores de forma constante mientras disfrutas del proceso creativo. Además, trabajamos en proyectos personalizados, lo que te permitirá ver resultados desde las primeras clases y sentir motivación en cada logro alcanzado.

Find your own way of expressing yourself. What motivates me is collaboration: I enjoy mentoring ideas and projects. More than a teacher, I see myself as a bridge between creative processes with a global perspective. After living and teaching in New York, Mexico City, England, and Jordan, I've developed a methodology that integrates intercultural sensitivity with filmmaking techniques, digital art, and creative writing. I also enjoy teaching English and Spanish.

Modeling isn't just about being professional; it's about learning to understand your body and posture. It's about knowing your best angles when taking photos of yourself, how to look your best in pictures, and how to handle heels—not just for special occasions, but as your go-to footwear, walking in them with confidence and poise.

I hold a Ditals I qualification, which enables me to teach not only foreign children but also opera singers.

I come from a strong creative foundation, having studied industrial design and developed a deep background in the arts. Over time, my career evolved into English teaching, where I discovered that my creativity naturally enhanced my approach to language education. Alongside teaching, I provided extensive coaching for both my dance students and my English learners, helping them build confidence, communication skills, and personal expression.

This unique combination of design thinking, artistic experience, and coaching allows me to support students not only with English—especially conversation and exam preparation—but also with broader communication skills that help them express themselves more effectively.
