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.

Hello, I am Marcela a multidisciplinary artist with BA in Visual Arts, Faculty of Fine Arts - University of Queretaro, Mexico. I have also done an exchange of 6 months to learn about sophisticated art methods at the Faculty of Fine Arts - University of Granada, Spain. Additionally, to deepen my skills, I took two courses on drawing and painting at Crea, Amsterdam.
In this course I will teach the basis of drawing and painting. Regarding drawing, I will teach the principles of sketching, moving forward to the specifics of light and shadow. During the drawing classes, you will also learn about different techniques, such as pastels, charcoal, and graphite. With respect to painting, you will learn about theory of colour, how to design a colour palette, and how to apply it. Next, you will learn about the specificities of materials, such as acrylics, watercolour and oils. You will then be able to experiment with these materials, and at the end create your own artwork based on your preferences.

A fun private lesson (max. 2 persons) at my studio.

Treat yourself and/or bring your partner, mother, friend or girlfriend.
Dive into the world of watercolor painting for 3 hours; when should you let go of control while painting? And when do you take back this control. Surprise yourself with how quickly you progress with some simple tips and basic knowledge.

It doesn't matter if you are an absolute beginner or someone who already acquired experience would like to deepen or refresh this knowledge. You are welcome and fun is paramount!

The workshop lasts 3 hours including a small break. Coffee and tea are included.

Please contact, day and time can be discussed. I am flexible available in Friday Saturday and Sunday. The price is for one person.

I can teach you the basics of drawing such as perspective and shading. As for painting, i can show you whole the process of oil painting starting by fixing the canvas on a frame, bedmaking, isolation and painting itself. I can show you the basic methods of watercolor as well.

From woodwork I can let you know how to work with chisel, drawknife and how to sharp these tools well.

Welcome to a new approach to painting, where traditional techniques merge with contemporary artistic expression. I'm Naomi , an experienced visual artist, here to guide you on a journey to discover your own style and painting process.

In the world of painting, there's a misconception that technique is something old-fashioned, reserved for realistically replicating the world around us. I invite you to let go of this notion and join me in exploring how contemporary painters, including abstract artists, use technique to create unique and powerful works.

My lessons are designed for adults who want to look beyond traditional painting courses. We'll start with exercises that encourage free expression, almost in a childlike manner, without focusing on the end result. This process often reveals unexpected talents and leads to authentic artistic discoveries.

I strongly believe in recognizing and developing each student's unique qualities. With me, you'll learn not just the techniques applied by contemporary artists, but also how to use them to find and refine your own artistic voice. There's no such thing as good or bad art; the biggest barriers are often fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Together, we'll overcome these obstacles, with enjoyment in the creative process as our guide.

By the end of the course, you'll leave with a painting that reflects the quality of professional work, created with materials that aren't necessarily expensive, but are essential for serious work in today's art world. I'll provide the materials for the first lesson; afterwards, students will be encouraged to purchase their own.

Whether you're looking for individual guidance or prefer learning in a group setting, I offer both personal and group lessons. Group lessons have a fixed structure, while individual guidance is completely tailored to your desires and talents.

Are you ready to elevate your painting skills to a new level and develop your own style that resonates with the contemporary art world? Join my course and let your creativity flow.

My name is Katia, and I am an artist and museum educator with a passion for working with children. I have over four years of experience in various roles, including babysitter, art teacher, and youth tour guide. For two years, I worked at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, creating educational programs for children. Currently, I have some free time alongside my job and would love to offer art + theory lessons for kids.

A bit more about the classes: The first thing to know is that this is not a traditional academic art program focused solely on painting and drawing—we won’t be sketching fruit bowls and vases (well, maybe occasionally!). Instead, we will explore various artistic media, from Impressionism to Land Art, incorporating hands-on activities, a bit of theory with artist examples, and possibly museum visits and/or outdoor walks.

If you’re looking for an art teacher and would like to learn more, feel free to contact me. Lessons are available in English and Russian.

For groups of 3 to 15 people.
Drawing a model? Painting with oil paint, watercolor or acrylic paint? I am happy to help you with this. I challenge you and I support you to develop your skills step by step, adapted to your level, into a full-fledged work of art. We start with basic techniques, shadows, proportions then we can make still lifes, portraits and even compositions.
I work as a museum teacher in various museums, including The Rembrandt House and the Hermitage. I am involved in a broad educational offer for various groups and individuals: from students in groups 4, 5 and 6 to gymnasium students and adults interested in culture and history. On the basis of various museum pieces I give different workshops, lessons, interactive tours at different understanding levels.

Painting has been always my passion since childhood and even perusing my study in medicine could not stop me from learning this passion. Now I would love to share my experience with other painting lovers by teaching watercolor techniques. While drawing skills are highly appreciated, for beginners with no painting/drawing experience my courses can be useful and by the end of each course students can have a piece of art made by themselves!
