Urban Sketching & Expressive Line Art — Learn to Draw AnywhereTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Urban Sketching & Expressive Line Art — Learn to Draw AnywhereTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Do you want to capture the world around you with just a pen and a sketchbook — anytime, anywhere? This class is all about urban sketching, expressive linework, and the art of seeing. Sketching is the most portable and intimate form of drawing. You don’t need fancy tools — a simple pen, a pocket-sized notebook, even an eyeliner can become the starting point of your next artwork. In this course, you will learn: ✨ Foundation techniques of pen sketching, line weight, shading, composition ✨ How to draw quickly and confidently from life ✨ The elegance of Chinese line art (“白描baimiao”): clarity, rhythm, and spirit ✨ How to develop your own style through bold experimentation ✨ How to capture the soul of a moment — people, pets, architecture, landscapes We will explore Copenhagen together and discover sketching spots: the peaceful fields, the modern skyline, hidden cafés, cozy streets, and everything in between. Every corner of this city has a story waiting to be drawn. More importantly, you will learn how sketching becomes a part of everyday life: 🍺 A bar sketch that earns you a free drink 🐾 A quick drawing of your cat or dog while they nap 🧡 A portrait sketch that becomes a charming conversation starter 🎁 A handmade gift far more personal than anything you can buy Sketching is not just a skill — it’s a lifestyle, a gentle way of observing the world and leaving a trace of beauty wherever you go. Whether you’re a beginner or simply eager to draw more freely, this class welcomes you.

Drawing, Painting, and Fine Arts classes for beginners, advanced students, adults, and art admirersTranslate this text using Google Translate.

The freedom of creativity is the most attractive way of self expression. However, to achieve the mastery to utilise consciously and productively this freedom, with both joy and confidence, with value and satisfaction, you need to have the 'tools' and attain certain skills to guide, facilitate, and uncover your potential. A grate achievement could not be done without breaking the rules, but to break the rules convincingly and doubtlessly, you first need to learn, acknowledge, and understand their natural laws and traditions. Therefore, I am inviting to my tutorial classes, where online or in person, on beginner or advanced level, you will meet and learn the basic and most important skills of Drawing and Painting systematically through observation and references. You will practice and experiment to fully master a medium or a technique, will support your practice with Art and Colour theory, Perspective, and History of Art, in order to start easily drawing yourself, interpreting a favourite scene or a subject on a paper or canvas, and will create you diverse and appealing collection of artworks with attention, imagination, and excitement.

Comics & Sequential Art - For beginners and advanced studentsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

ABOUT THE CLASS: Do you have a character in your head, a story you’ve been thinking about, or simply an urge to draw and wonder what might happen if you turned it into a comic? In this class, we’ll explore how to develop your ideas into sequential form. We’ll work on drawing skills, character development, composition, page layouts, pacing, and the relationship between images and text. We’ll also look at inspiring examples from comics, graphic novels, and art history. Depending on your interests, we might create a short comic, develop a character or story, or begin working towards a longer project. You don’t need to have a finished story, or even know exactly what you want to make. We can start small, experiment with ideas, and build towards a larger project. There are no specific requirements regarding materials. We can work with pencil and paper, ink, color, or digital tools. If you would like to work digitally, you will need to bring your own laptop and software; there are many excellent open-source and inexpensive options available. ABOUT ME: I am a lifelong comics lover, as well as an artist, architect, and published comic book author. My background in architecture helps me create convincing worlds, environments, and backgrounds, while my professional experience in animation has given me a good understanding of timing and pace. I look forward to exploring this amazing medium further with you! ***The class is suitable for total beginners as well as intermediate and advanced students.

Introduction to digital drawing (Krita, and pad provided) – student in studio and Fine ArtsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Introduction to digital drawing (Krita, and pad provided) – student in studio and Fine ArtsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

After studying art for fifteen years in a Parisian workshop and starting a preparatory course in Art at the Beaux-Arts de Lyon, I offer an introduction to digital drawing techniques. During my studio training, I experimented with numerous techniques (life drawing, still life, painting, cyanotype, engraving, pastel, charcoal, sculpture) which I now use in my digital drawings. I have been drawing on Krita for a year now, creating posters, original drawings, and animations. Today, I offer to guide people interested in digital drawing techniques for a few hours. During this introductory session, I can adapt to each individual's preferences, whether they focus on line work, color, or composition. My goal is to foster an interest in art and digital drawing in each and every one of my students, ensuring both enjoyable lessons and rapid progress. I look forward to seeing everyone's creations and am curious about your artistic ambitions. My teachings The aim of this introduction to digital drawing is to allow students to gain an initial appreciation of the techniques and potential of digital drawing. First, we will cover the basic parameters of the Krita software and install the necessary software to ensure access to its various features before exploring the artistic possibilities of this format. Throughout this introduction, my goal is also to ensure the student enjoys the process and, more generally, to encourage them to pursue their artistic interests and curiosities. We will use various digital drawing techniques: layers, masks, brushes, colors and the color triangle, animation (for beginners), coloring, and selection and transformation tools. If desired, I can also offer tests to check that the student has understood each step; however, in all cases, developing autonomy is central to this introduction, and this is achieved without the need for tests. Upon completion of this introductory course, students will be able to use Krita's basic tools independently, creating digital drawings and, if they wish, their first animations. They will be proficient in using the various tools covered. Results will be quickly visible, and each student will soon be able to implement their own projects, which I will be delighted to support. I offer this introductory course on Krita, which remains particularly accessible as it is free. Therefore, the financial commitment for this course does not include the purchase of software. Should the student wish to purchase software to further develop and professionalize their skills, I can recommend software based on their specialization (video editing, animation, digital painting, etc.). Digital drawing generally requires the purchase of a pad or tablet. For in-person classes, I provide the pad to minimize the financial commitment for what is, after all, an introductory course. This also gives students the opportunity to familiarize themselves with these tools, get comfortable with them, and make informed choices about their equipment. For online classes, however, students will need to purchase their own pad; I can then provide relevant recommendations. It is also possible to draw digitally without a pad using Krita, and although more challenging, it remains an interesting option for those who are not yet sure about continuing their digital drawing training. Course format Group classes for multiple students are also possible if each student has a tablet. In this case, I offer discounted rates per household to make this option attractive to everyone. If the student makes progress on their own outside of class, it is perfectly possible for me to take up their work and questions in the following class and therefore progress at their own pace. I offer both in-person and online classes. I have the necessary equipment to ensure successful online lessons. One of the advantages of digital drawing is that it is easy to teach remotely. For home lessons, an additional charge may apply when travel is particularly significant or when schedules are restrictive. Feel free to contact me with any further questions or if you require further clarification regarding the proposed format or the support provided.

“ I reached out to Ms. Lubna to mentor my son in the art of watercolor. Because he has never painted before, Ms. Lubna taught him from scratch how to mix, apply and explore the possibilities of watercolor as an art medium. My son finds her classes a welcome challenge, because her method is teaching by example. She paints while she explains, and my son paints along with her in tandem. He really enjoys her classes and always leaves the class eager to learn more. And her existing art portfolio is so inspiring for young future artists. Thank you Ms. Lubna for introducing a fun new art form to him! We will continue to purchase another package of class credits for sure! ”

“ I’m so grateful to Anna! She has such a high level of expertise, and her advices were very helpful for me (I had three consultations about my portfolio). I love her way of teaching — so structured, you can apply everything she is telling you right away. Also, I was charmed by her ability to go deeply into my meaning, understand my ideas, and share her views on how to enhance them. And as a person, Anna is so attentive, considerate, and kind. I will definitely turn to Anna again when I need help. Thank you so much, Anna. I’m so happy I found you, wish you all the best! :) ”
