Do you not have time for art academy, or do you prefer working independently? I give painting tutoring, and in the meantime, a great many students have come to take lessons. Both young people and adults sometimes come to paint in the studio weekly. I provide targeted feedback and can offer many tips to get started quickly and efficiently.

Here you receive personalized guidance at your own pace. I will efficiently teach you the basics of successful painting. The lessons are focused on your creative development. Portrait, still life, abstraction, space and the body—you can explore all themes here. Do you wish to suggest subjects or initiatives yourself? I’d be delighted! Students usually stay for 2 hours per session. We will discuss your areas of interest beforehand, and I will listen to what you want to achieve. Afterwards, I will give assignments tailored to your goals.
Lessons can be arranged together.
Extra information
We like to discuss everything in advance.

Python is a programming language with a simple syntax, similar to the English language. It allows developers to write programs with fewer lines than some other programming languages. It can be used in many areas such as web development, mathematics, science, education and general purpose software development.

This course aims to demonstrate how Python can be used to create solutions to real-life problems or programs that can be used to faciltate tasks performed at school, in a workplace or at home. It aims to engage not only learners with advanced programming experience but also those who have little or not any experience at all. Creative and critical thinking are continuously encouraged during the lessons.

Relevant topics:
- Input/Output
- Data types and variables
- Operators
- Lists,tuples, sets
- If / else
- Loops
- Functions
- Lambda
- Classes/Objects
- Inheritance
- Iterators
- Scope
- File handling
- Modules
- NumPy
- Python Maplotlib
- Python SciPy

The content and pace of the course is adapted to the age and needs of the learners. Younger learners may prefer to start with my course entitled “Create fun games and interactive programs in Python”.

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.

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 :)

My goal is to restore confidence, explain things differently when necessary, and turn challenges into real successes. I primarily prepare students for the CE1D exam. First, we work together on each skill assessed during this test. Then, I guide the student through the practice of all these skills so they can approach the exam in its entirety with confidence and method.
Regarding the price, if you have financial difficulties, do not hesitate to inform me, we will find a solution. Money has never been a problem for me, the main thing is that your child improves his level and passes his exams.

Learning Sculpture: From Classicism to Abstraction.

Sculpture classes for amateurs or beginners. Starting with bas-relief and progressing to sculpture in the round. I offer classical or abstract training in contemporary art, allowing you to explore your imagination and/or create figurative figures.

The course is obviously based on your interests. If you're interested in learning practical sculpting techniques, such as figurative art, we'll focus on that. If you're more drawn to a more abstract form of expression, I'll guide you through your more fantastical ideas.
Once your pieces are made, we will think together about the best finishes, whether it be molding and casting in plaster, or ceramic firing of the work.
Your productions in progress will be protected and handled with care, and any production that passes the final molding or baking stage will belong to you; I will ask you to take them back when they are finished.

The figurative and abstract art courses offer different paths, which can obviously be combined to achieve an interesting middle ground. The figurative course provides busts and plaster casts from which to create models, allowing you to better understand the forms of the face, body, and volumes that make up the human being. Anatomical references will also be available as needed; for example, when working on the torso in modeling, I will present you with advanced anatomical references that you can keep.

The course on abstraction operates on another axis, freer, where it will be your ideas above all which will build your path, with technical help from me, advice and helping hands when you need it.
You can combine these two courses and I will gladly accompany you on this more mixed path.

Since sculpture is a medium that takes up space, your works should not exceed certain dimensions, which will be determined based on your desires and ambitions.

Materials are provided: clay, plaster, modeling tools, and other tools. The quantities of clay and plaster will vary depending on your artwork and the chosen method; this variation may affect the price. For example, a piece requiring 5-10 kilos of clay will be less expensive than one requiring twice that amount. Silicone molding may also incur higher costs.


ENGLISH:

Learning Sculpture: From Classicism to Abstract Art.

Sculpture classes for amateurs or beginners, starting with low relief and progressing to free-standing sculpture. I teach classical or abstract contemporary art, allowing you to explore your more abstract ideas, or the creation of figures and portraits.

The course is, of course, tailored to your interests. If you're focused on learning specific sculpting techniques in combination with figurative work—we'll concentrate on that. If you're more interested in a more abstract form of expression, I'll accompany you on your creative path.
Once your pieces are completed, we will discuss the best finishing options together, whether that involves casting in plaster or firing the work in a kiln.

Your works-in-progress will be protected and handled with care, and any piece that reaches the final stage of casting or firing will belong to you; I will ask you to collect them once they are finished.

The figurative course and the abstract course offer different paths, which can of course be combined to achieve an interesting middle ground. The figurative course provides busts and plaster casts, allowing you to better understand the shapes of the face, the body, and the volumes that make up the human form. Anatomy references will also be available to you as needed; for example, when working on the torso through modeling, I will provide you with good anatomical references that you can keep.

The course on abstraction takes a different, freer approach, where your technical ideas will be the primary focus in shaping your creative journey, with guidance from me, as well as advice and support whenever you need it.

You can, of course, combine these two courses, and I will be happy to guide you on this more mixed path.
Since sculpture is a medium that takes up space, your works must not exceed certain dimensions, which will depend on your desires and ambitions.
