Basic Colour Theory for Painting/Drawing - an essential to all art

Von 37.68 Fr /Std

Colour is the basis of all painting. It creates a basis for all colour art and is a whole science in itself.

In this lesson, we will look at some basic colour theory, painting our own colour wheels and considering how these might help us when painting or drawing. We will apply what we have learnt to look at some famous paintings and see how these favourite artists used the same colour theory as us today.

Über mich

1st class Fine Art and Art History graduate specialising in Art School Applications, A Level, GCSE, observational drawing, painting, sculpture and photography and primary children.

I have a wide breadth of knowledge of mediums including
- Drawing
- Painting
- Sculpture
- Photography
- Installation

I also have a broad knowledge of Art History - contemporary and traditional gained through my degree and attending many exhibitions in London over the past 3 years. This knowledge of contemporary artists is perfect for A Level students or Art School Applicants. Having just left Art School myself I am very much in touch with what Art Schools are expecting and I also have experience assisting my university interviewing prospective students, so know about this process from both sides and can share my knowledge of details such as portfolio layout to the contexts of the student`s work.

Throughout school and my degree, I have consistently gained A*s and 1sts. I am a clear communicator and passionate about my subject and getting people involved in art! Whether this is to gain good marks or learn a new skill.

I am confident and friendly and love thinking of exciting new ways to make things and improve sketchbooks! Drawing is the basis of my work and over lockdown I have refined my skills in tutoring drawing over zoom.

I also have experience teaching kids and love sharing my enthusiasm for their creativity. I tailor every lesson around each child`s interests to get them excited about art and keep them wanting to create. Overall I am very friendly and enthusiastic and excited to share my knowledge about art.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions at all!

Drawing is the basic to much art, it's how we jot ideas down or plan paintings and observe the world around us.
Do you feel like you need some new, exciting ways of drawing? Maybe you need a new way to see the world around you and transfer this onto your page.
We will look at weird, strange and exciting drawing techniques which will feed into your technical drawing, prompting you to look at the world and your drawing techniques a fresh.

The freedom of creativity is the most attractive way of self expression. However, to achieve the mastery to utilise consciously and productively this freedom, with both joy and confidence, with value and satisfaction, you need to have the 'tools' and attain certain skills to guide, facilitate, and uncover your potential. A grate achievement could not be done without breaking the rules, but to break the rules convincingly and doubtlessly, you first need to learn, acknowledge, and understand their natural laws and traditions.
Therefore, I am inviting to my tutorial classes, where online or in person, on beginner or advanced level, you will meet and learn the basic and most important skills of Drawing and Painting systematically through observation and references. You will practice and experiment to fully master a medium or a technique, will support your practice with Art and Colour theory, Perspective, and History of Art, in order to start easily drawing yourself, interpreting a favourite scene or a subject on a paper or canvas, and will create you diverse and appealing collection of artworks with attention, imagination, and excitement.

Singing is your passion and you wanna build up your skill? You feel at home with genres within pop and/or rock music? Then I'm your teacher!

My classes will be designed to fit in with your current level, your preferences in terms of style and/or skill as well as your goals. Each class starts with a short warm up consisting of breathing exercises, a check of your body posture and singing exercises. Then we'll work on the songs you wanna sing. The technique I'm gonna teach you is based on speech level singing.

About me: I'm about to finish my music studies with a bachelor diploma in singing at Jam Music Lab Privat University for Jazz and Popular Music Vienna and I've been singing for over 10 years now. Last time I was live on stage was with the 80's tribute "Shake Me" at Simm City Wien and local Wien in 2020. Right now I'm arranging my own songs from my dark wave and dark rock influenced band project "Vampy Pop" to make them ready for recording in the studio.

Are you willing to learn drawing or painting? Do you wish to improve what you already know?

I graduated from an art school where I learned all the important classical techniques of drawing, painting and sculpture. I would like to pass on the knowledge I have acquired through my studies and practice and give those who so wish the opportunity to go on a journey into the world of art and improve their language and technique.
The lessons are open to all levels.

The techniques covered range from drawing with pencil, charcoal and pastel chalk to all painting styles (watercolor, oil, acrylic, tempera). You have the opportunity to experiment on different types of paper (with different weights and colors) and canvases.

The topics change from lesson to lesson and can range from the human body to the landscape to the wildlife, depending on your preferences and desires.

Particular attention is paid to the method so that the finished work is clean, pleasant and as expressive as possible.

I offer creative lessons tailored to your needs and preferences. These can cover drawing and painting techniques, but also other materials like clay or digital tools (think digital art on the iPad). Together, we'll explore your current level, what skills you'd like to learn, and establish a goal to guide the lesson content. Especially if you're saying, "Yes, but I'm not really that creative," or "Yes, but I'm not very good at drawing," I'd love to take on the challenge with you!

I teach digital painting with a focus on clarity, structure, and outcome. You’ll learn how to control digital brushes, build convincing lighting, use color intentionally, and create textures that add depth. We’ll move from the basics of composition to the challenges of designing characters, surreal environments, and expressive scenes.

By the end, you’ll produce portfolio-ready artworks and understand a professional workflow from sketch to finish. Each session combines hands-on exercises with discussion of artistic choices, so you strengthen both technical skill and creative judgment.

This course is for beginners and intermediate artists who want to go beyond tutorials and actually build a body of polished, original work.

Lesson Overview

Who: Johannes – Brand owner and Central Saint Martins graduate with experience in celebrity dressing and industry experience in luxury couture houses

Techniques & methodology: Practice-led, studio-based teaching combining draping on the body, pattern making, sewing, and portfolio development, tailored to individual goals

Lesson length: Typically 90 minutes, allowing time for hands-on making, discussion, and feedback

Who the lessons are for: Students aged 16+, including foundation, BA, and MA applicants, as well as early-career designers seeking portfolio refinement or industry insight

Languages: English and German

Focus: University applications, professional portfolios, technical development, and understanding industry expectations

I am the founder of the fashion brand Johannes and an actively practising designer, bringing an industry-focused approach to teaching. I support students in developing strong, competitive portfolios for university applications and professional roles, with clear guidance on concept development, editing, and presentation aligned with current academic and industry expectations.

My professional work includes designing and dressing international artists such as Björk, Lady Gaga, Grimes, Kylie Jenner, Megan Thee Stallion, Rina Sawayama, and Post Malone for performances, editorials, and public appearances. This experience gives students direct insight into professional standards, timelines, and the realities of working under pressure within the fashion industry. My technical foundation is shaped by experience in couture and luxury fashion environments including Viktor&Rolf, Givenchy, Balmain, and bespoke tailoring ateliers.

My teaching covers draping, pattern making, sewing, and hand-based construction techniques, with a strong focus on fit, proportion, and translating ideas into technically resolved garments. I offer targeted guidance on what universities are looking for at foundation, BA, and MA level: from creative curiosity and process at foundation stage, to technical skill, concept development, and visual clarity at BA level, through to research depth, authorship, and critical positioning at MA level. I work closely with students to ensure their portfolios clearly communicate both creative identity and readiness for academic or professional progression. I am fluent in German and, with formal training in painting, can also support students in developing visual research, composition, and fine art–led portfolio work where relevant.
