About Me

I am an artist living and working in the Netherlands. In my current art practice, I focus on artistic research, writing, video, collaborative work and installation.

I enjoy teaching and sharing skills with people who are interested in art at any level. I love to teach foundation skills as well as skills in navigating applications for art programs and portfolio building since I know this can be challenging.

I am also open to teaching classes that focus more closely on a specific type of drawing, or sculpture. Please feel free to send me a message if you are interested in something in particular.

Education

I have a Bachelor degree in Sculpture from Massachusetts College of Art and Design, 2015
I recently graduated with a Master's in Fine art from Hogeschool for de Kunsten Utrecht, 2020

Experience / Qualifications

I have experience teaching children and adults with disabilities. I was a teaching assistant at a university in sculpture classes for 2 years as well!

Love working with her :)
This class is for those interested in getting started in printmaking from their home! Gelatin printing is a very fun, easy, non-toxic method to create beautiful and unique images. Gelatin is the traditional material for this method, but can be vegan using agar instead (you can state your preference). A plate of gelatin is created which becomes the surface to hold the ink. Different objects, fabrics, utensils, shapes can be used to create patterns and images in the print. This class can be done in a set of 3 1 hour classes (preferably 3 days in a row), but the class timing can be adapted and can be extended depending on the desire.. In the first class you will learn how to make the gelatin plate and care for it, and start to learn about different techniques. The second class you will begin to print. You will learn how to use the gelatin plate and ink and will try a few different techniques and surfaces to print on. In the third class you will learn some more advanced techniques and applications for the gelatin printing. After this you'll be an expert and can print at home whenever you want! For children, this class will need to be done in person, or if doing an online class will need the help of an adult to make the gelatin plate.
This is a class for someone of any age who is a beginner in art. You will learn the foundations of drawing skills from material knowledge, techniques, paper types, collage, to color theory, form, lighting, perspective, a little art history, and more. The different lessons covered can be adapted to different ages. Some things you will learn: -how to hold a pencil and other tools -gesture drawing -shading -line quality -cross-hatching -blind-contour drawing -blending and smudging -image composition

MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
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.

Autodesk 3DSMax, logiciel de création tridimensionnelle
3DSMax est l'outil le plus employé dans l''industrie du jeu et de la réalité virtuelle. Il sert à concevoir des images fixes ou animées en mettant en scène des objets 3D dans des univers tridimensionnels. Ceux-ci peuvent aussi être exportés pour des logiciels de réalité virtuelle comme Unity ou Unreal. De fait, tout peut être réalisé graphiquement avec un tel logiciel : Du simple objet manufacturé, en passant par le design, l'architecture, l'urbanisme, jusqu'à la création de personnages de dessin animés ou hyper-réalistes immergés dans des mondes imaginaires ou existants, du compositing vidéo jusqu'à la réalité mixte. C'est donc un outil complet qui comblera l'artiste comme l'amateur de technologie. Aussi de manière évolutive, vous apprendrez à maitriser son interface et produire de manière progressive des objets et des scènes 3D de plus en plus complexes et de plus en plus réalistes.

CINEMA, ACTING, IMPROVISATION WORKSHOPS - - -
These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting. Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive. The objective of this training is to be able to: - Analyze and dissect a text - Create, develop and embody a character - Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play - Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity (...) Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives. PLACES : - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. - As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round. THE TRAINER From a Grande Ecole post-preparatory class in France & Ivy League University in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 14 years in the field, in international establishments, intervening in forums and conferences.

Design graphic, art director skills, and drawing-painting.
Dans mon cours de dessin, vous passerez d'abord par le dessin d'observation, c'est à dire l'art de voir avant de dessiner car sans observation pas de dessin, puis vous passerez à l'étape suivante de l’expression de soi, de votre propre point de vue par des projets personnels sur des thèmes imposés ou libres, à décider ensemble. J'ai une Licence d'Arts Appliqués à l’Académie Bugeant à Poitiers. (1983), 35 ans de direction artistique dans la communication et 40 ans de dessin non-stop. J'enseigne à l'ECV creative Shools à Nantes depuis 7 ans, chez Brassart depuis 5 ans, chez Efet du groupe Eductive, et chez ISG Luxury depuis 2 ans. Je donne des cours de "rough", une méthode de dessin, de design et de création publicitaire sur papier, avant le passage à l'ordinateur. (Du dessin pur et du dessin typographique ). J'ai une grande habitude de l'échange et du soutien personnalisé de chaque étudiant dans ces écoles. Je peux vous aider pour appréhender et créer via la suite Adobe (Photoshop, illustrator et indesign) que je pratique depuis 25 ans.

We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the nimbs. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

TECHNICAL DRAWING from scratch (or from wherever you need)
The TECHNICAL DRAWING takes you by surprise because: - You have to appear for the EBAU this year or next year and you don't see it clearly... - You are doing or plan to do a higher education cycle or a design degree and you do not distinguish between square and bevel... - Although you understand the YouTube tutorials or the solved exercises, when you are going to do them you don't know where to start... I can help you understand what resists you so that you have greater security and, why not, come to enjoy the subject.
