2D Animation Filmmaker and Illustrator - Personalised Drawing lessons

Are you a beginner artist? Are you nurturing a drawing hobby?
Or perhaps you have a strong artistic vision, but you struggle with proportions and spacing?
Do you feel like you lack a personal signature style?
Do you want to learn 2D Hand-drawn Animation?

If any of these questions relate to you, please get in touch with me! I would love to help you develop the right skills to improve your artwork.
Being a professional myself, I know how to help you improve your portfolio or if you are looking for something more hobby-oriented, I can encourage you to take on creative exercises and develop ideas.

I aim for my lessons to be engaging and I respect everyone's needs and pace whilst in a learning environment.
I offer personalised drawing lessons, where we explore creative exercises and I can help with any challenges you bring to the table.

Some of the specific methods and drawing/painting techniques I can share include:

- Proportions and Space
- Observational Drawing.
- Stylised Drawing
- Sketchbook exercises/routines
- Charcoal, Watercolours, Line Art, Digital Art
- 2D Animation techniques

I can also give you specific feedback on any current projects you have (school or university-related as well) and mentor your progress.

I'm an independent artist, specialising in 2D Animation and Illustration.
I'm currently living in Scotland, I'm doing freelance work and I have directed award-winning animation shorts that had their way around the world through film festival tours.
I'm originally from Portugal and I moved to the UK for education purposes.
I graduated from the University for the Creative Arts, Farnham with a 1st Class BA(Hons) Animation Degree.

I hope to hear from you!
