Présentation

Hello, my name is Anna,
I'm a 28-year-old designer based in Denmark, having graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. Currently, I'm working for Cecilie Bahnsen, a Copenhagen-based brand, and in my free time, I teach and consult designers. I have attended universities like Central Saint Martins, Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Middlesex University and Polimoda. My big journey of preparation and research for my education required hard work and dedication. This process often had me feeling stressed and devastated. That's the reason why I would like to help and facilitate the young generations to make a proper portfolio/application with someone who shares their passion and agony. I'm very calm, patient and engaging with my students, always experimenting and seeking creative solutions for each individual.

Feel free to message me!

A lot of people think they cannot draw. But before drawing, it is about "seeing". Actually if you can see, you can draw. Not only objects, but portraits, animals, whatever you want. By developing the aptitude of observing the reality using the right part of your brain, you learn how to draw what you really see instead of drawing what you think you already know about this reality.
This technique was a revelation as it allowed me to progress quickly when I was young. It's on this base that I will help you to learn another way of looking at things around you and show you some tricks to overcome difficulties as perspective, foreshorten,...

L'objectif est d'acquérir de l'autonomie et se perfectionner en réalisant une ou plusieurs œuvres personnelles -dessin - BD - Manga - portrait - encre - aquarelle - paysage - illustration -
L'enseignement est individualisé.
C'est une pédagogie active axée sur de l'observation de pratique et d'exercices variés pour une progression rapide et efficace !
De nombreuses techniques peuvent être abordées ( crayon, numérique, peintures à l'eau (aquarelle, gouache, acrylique), aussi bien sur des réalisations rapides que des études et compositions poussées.
Les esquisses, les croquis, des études simples, les volumes, les ombres et lumières, la perspective, la composition, la mise en couleur d'un dessin dans plusieurs techniques peuvent être des exemples de session.

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.

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.

I have a bachelor's degree in digital arts, obtained at Saint Luc in 2016. During my studies I made live models, had courses in color, 2D animation, perspectives and character design.
I mainly draw with a graphics tablet.
During the lessons we will see how:
- look at an image, understand how the artist composes it, then learn to reproduce a style.
- use layers
- use filters to give more life to images
- learn different coloring methods, from grayscale coloring to colorization with filters
- use different brushes
- export illustrations in the correct formats
- integrate photos into your drawings

With this flexible method, I could teach you in a few lessons to discover or deepen your drawing style and improve your renderings.

I work as a 3D generalist for cinema and/or video games, with a specialization in 3D Layout/Préviz.

During our courses, I will teach you the techniques to create your own illustrations/projects, and allow you to discover if not improve your skills in the world of 3D.
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.

My classes take place as follows:
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!

There is a magical moment when the concepts fit together and the solution appears, clear and luminous.
My role as a teacher is to guide you towards these revelations.
I offer you demanding and caring support in:
• Mathematical Analysis (the science of change and limits)
• Linear and Vector Algebra (the art of structures and transformations)
• Analytical Geometry (the poetry of forms through algebra)
• Trigonometry (the language of angles and measurements)
• Descriptive Geometry (the vision of space projected onto paper)
Together, we will build not only skills, but also a peaceful and confident relationship with mathematics. Here, mistakes are only a stepping stone to understanding.

My name is Zuzanna, an interdisciplinary visual artist and art therapist originally from Poland.
Passionate about the links between creation, education and inner transformation, I use art as a tool for self-knowledge and healing.

My work combines artistic expression (drawing, painting, collage, sculpture, video, performance) and therapeutic support, to help each person reconnect with themselves, release their emotions and explore their creative potential.

🎨 Art Therapy Classes – A creative journey to self-discovery

Immerse yourself in a space of relaxation and inner discovery through art therapy.
No experience in drawing or painting is necessary — simply let your emotions guide your creations.

Over the course of the sessions, you will explore:
🧘‍♀️ Moments of guided meditation
🌈 The psychology of colors
✏️ Intuitive drawing
🖼️ Creative collage
🪨 Expressive sculpture
...and other art therapy techniques.

These practices will help you reduce stress, regain concentration and release emotional blockages, while developing mindfulness and self-knowledge.
Each workshop is tailored to the age and needs of the participants, and complements traditional approaches to art therapy.

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

Mes cours de dessin reposent sur l’ABC du dessin et les techniques classiques et académiques. Ils s’adressent à tous, débutants comme confirmés. Grâce à une grande adaptabilité et une pédagogie progressive, je vous accompagne dans un véritable parcours initiatique : observation, proportions, perspective, ombres, portrait et expression. L’objectif est de construire des bases solides pour aller pas à pas vers la maîtrise du dessin, dans un cadre bienveillant et structurant.
