I am a very passionate person when it comes to making fun with colors, drawing, crafts, and calligraphy.
Teaching these subjects brings me immense delight and satisfaction. Moreover, I hold a strong belief in the beauty of elegant handwriting. My instructional approach is centered on guiding learners from basics and foundational concepts to an advanced level of mastery.

At the start of the youth album of your choice (you know, the one she / he constantly asks you to reread to her "by making the voices"), I will make a reading of it told in front of her / him then we will realize together a plastic realization from this story!

These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting.

Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive.

The objective of this training is to be able to:

- Analyze and dissect a text
- Create, develop and embody a character
- Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play
- Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity

(...)

Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.
- As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

THE TRAINER
From a Grande Ecole post-preparatory class in France & Ivy League University in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 14 years in the field, in international establishments, intervening in forums and conferences.

I am a multidisciplinary artist and designer with fifteen years of experience. I studied art and architecture at the École nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and the Columbia University in New York. I teach painting, drawing, digital image and creativity. This class is ideal for beginners but also intermediate students who want to develop their own style.

For my personal projects, I work in a wide range of mediums, from drawing, painting and printmaking to digital image and 3D Printing. When teaching, I prefer to first focus on free-hand drawing and painting as this allows for greater spontaneity regardless of the student's technical level. We later explore other methods based on the student's individual interests. I like to teach children and adults via mini projects involving art history references and help them develop narratives around their work. I deeply believe in people's creative potential and in my classes will help you channel your own voice.

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 12 years of practice teaching people how to do it. We work together step by step to understand the technique, the way to prepare wooden panel to paint an icon and the techniques of making a good project to make the icon fit to the board. We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the halos. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

Would you like to be able to illustrate the worlds and stories you imagine?

Do you want to learn how to create characters for a video game, animation, children's story, comic or in any format? Or would you like to be able to draw your favorite characters?

If you have those concerns, I would love to help you.

I like to focus the classes in such a way that the current drawing level of the student is not what is important. The room for improvement will always evolve. I like to take my classes towards character design, towards general things like the psychology of color and shapes, since they are assimilable and highly useful concepts, independent of the level of drawing. For this reason, my classes are aimed at all ages and drawing levels.

I also try to focus them on the preferences and tastes of each student, showing them that everything they like, they like for a reason, that nothing is left to chance and that they can also understand how to make their drawings reflect what they want to convey. Even to create your portfolios or visual information for your own project or story.

I give private classes with students from different parts of the world, so many of my classes I have been able to do in both English and French.

I studied 2D animation in France, and thanks to this training, my work has been nourished by dynamism, storytelling, expressiveness, typical of this medium, as well as the sensitivity for color and shapes that I usually use to infuse a unique style both to my original designs as well as my fanarts.

Based on long-term experience among all audiences and in-depth knowledge of traditional or modern tools, I like to bring together all these areas to experience Art in its beautiful part of creation.

My course is focused on the desires for expression and research formulated by the students.
Nothing pleases me more than allowing you to access what attracts you most in the narrative image (comics, illustration, Concept Art).

We will address together both character issues (anatomy, stylization, etc.) and settings (perspective, landscapes, etc.).

I put the desire of my students at the heart of the learning process.

As examples, we will learn how to use software such as Blender, 3dsMAx, Photoshop, Zbrush, Substance Painter, and many others.

I am very attentive, a teacher and I will be able to guide you and support you step by step on your desires for achievements, whether for beginners who want to discover this field, up to students who need to learn to master new skills.

You tell me what you would like to achieve, and we will achieve it together, otherwise I will offer you a project to create in line with your desires, while taking care to explore enough aspects to prepare you for the profession.

Looking forward to meeting you, and I hope, see you soon!

Photoshop is used differently for painting or drawing than it is for photo editing. I'll show you how to use all of the program's tools, but I'll also teach you how to think when it comes to game art, concept art, and illustration, whether it's for character design, creature design, environment design, or prop design. I'll also teach you all the essential industry fundamentals, such as anatomy, perspective, color and light, and composition.

A graduate of the Émile Cohl School with a specialized bachelor's degree in Game Art, I have had the chance to work with more than 15 different video game, board game, trading card game (TCG) and role-playing game studios, creating concept art and illustrations for them.

Now an art teacher, I use my experience and skills, both as an artist and a teacher, to share with you all my knowledge of this subject and the gaming industry.

My approach encourages experimentation, self-expression, and growth, providing a supportive and inspiring environment for students to discover their artistic abilities. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your craft, I’m here to help you bring your creative visions to life.

Bonjour à toutes et à tous !

Artiste et professeur de dessin. Je donne des cours à domicile ainsi que des ateliers.
Titulaire de deux diplômes : dont un en arts graphiques et une certification en jeux vidéos. J'ai suivi un cursus artistique pendant sept ans. (Licence d'arts plastiques et école d'art)

J'enseigne le dessin dans sa manière globale ainsi que les fondamentaux : perspective, traits de construction.. ainsi que la bande dessinée ou encore les portraits. Je peux enseigner les méthodes dites académiques comme personnalisées et propre à chacun que ce soit avec des techniques réalistes ou cartoon.

Je guide chaque élève en observant sa manière unique de penser et de dessiner, puis je co-construis avec lui une méthode sur mesure qui respecte son geste graphique et libère sa créativité.
Mon approche combine technique, émotion et observation, pour que chaque trait compte et chaque élève progresse rapidement, en confiance et avec plaisir !
Ici, le dessin devient un espace de liberté, d'expérimentation et de compréhension incarnée.
Je m'engage également à chaque cours/ atelier d'avoir fait un travail sur lequel il ne pensait pas être capable de réaliser.

Je travaille avec tout type de profil et de niveau : Niveau, considéré comme débutant, intermédiaire, avancé, concours. Enfants, étudiant en école d'art, adultes, seniors, personne en situation de handicap.

J'accompagne chaque élève en parallèle si l'élève souhaite travailler après les cours effectué.
Je me déplace également à domicile. Possibilité d'effectuer les cours à mon domicile ou par webcam.

Je propose un cours d"essai pour apprendre à vous connaître, découvrir votre univers et vos objectifs.

A très vite,
Cindy
