Speaking about films provides an almost endless possibilities for conversation. This class will usually be well-versed in many country's films, customs, foods!We will focus on what students like best/least about friends. The exercise allow you to practice a number of areas: opinions, comparatives and superlatives, descriptive adjectives, and reported speech. Also, storytelling lessons, how to share a story, tell a narrative!

For pupils who are still at school, I make an overview of the progress, so that the parents and specialist teachers remain informed about the work that has been done.

Or you are simply interested in Photoshop and are curious.

Hello,

My name is Lucas, I'm a 37 years old graphic designer and collage illustrator.
I created this course to introduce new-comers and intermediate Photoshop users to develop their abilities, learn new tricks and use Photoshop for personal and professional goals.

The course is adapted to the student's current knowledge and objectives with the software to learn the basic features, image uses for print and web, how to combine Photoshop's features to achieve goals, photo-treating features, advanced effects and tricks, interacting with other Adobe Softwares, and more.

The course is conducted in either English, Portuguese or Spanish. We can discuss the possibilities of conducting it in German or French.
I can commute to your desired place within the Ringbahn, and your will need a computer with a later Photoshop installed. :)

Corona safety measures should please be respected. Thank you!

Looking forward to your contact.
All the best,
Lucas.

my teaching method is about finding a guideline for your design together with you and highlighting it. The developed concept should run through all components of the project.

The goal is not to dictate to you how "the design" works, but rather that we critically develop a project-specific approach together.

This course explains fundamental design ideas, walks you through the fundamentals of Adobe Illustrator, and teaches you how to create logos. Learn how to use mockups to display your creations. Designed for novices in graphic design, marketers, and aspiring businesses. Improve your abilities from the ground up! Enroll today to make your logo dreams a reality.

As an aspiring photographer eager to print your images, you've made investments in equipment but are disappointed with the results. You've attempted to tackle color management and printer profiling, but haven't achieved the desired outcomes.

In this course, you will learn about:

- Color management in applications: How to properly evaluate and set up
- Understanding the differences between monitor and print output
- Monitor profiling
- The significance of standard light
- Exploring ink jet printers, including their characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages
- Printer calibration and profiling using colorPROFILER, an open-source solution for advanced printer profiling

How deeply you delve into these topics depends entirely on your interests. Our experienced color management professional will guide you to go beyond just pressing buttons and flipping switches. You'll learn to help yourself!

About the instructor: With over 30 years of professional experience in color management, I advise high-profile clients across various industries where color is crucial. I want to share my expertise with the everyday person, who often feels overwhelmed and helpless due to the abundance of information. Let's put an end to this confusion and focus together on what truly matters.

Whether you're a beginner eager to explore the fundamentals or an advanced user looking to refine your skills, I offer engaging, hands-on lessons that make learning Photoshop both accessible and fun. Their approach is not only about mastering technical tools but also unlocking the creative possibilities that Photoshop offers, helping students to push boundaries and bring their unique ideas to life. Get ready to dive into a world of digital artistry, where you'll learn everything from image manipulation and retouching to advanced photo compositing techniques, all in a supportive and dynamic learning environment.

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.

Would you like to structure your notes more or simply make them look a little nicer?
I'll show you the basics of hand lettering to achieve this.
Together we can practice holding the pen, the different types of pens, how much pressure to apply and shading, for example.

The program is designed for students interested in concept art, illustration, visual storytelling, and portfolio preparation for art schools, animation/game-related programs, or independent artistic development. It follows a mentorship-based approach, combining artistic foundations, conceptual thinking, and portfolio strategy, adapted to everyone's style, vision and long-term goals.

What's in it?

PART I

1. Artistic & visual language

• Traditional drawing & illustration techniques
• Shape & form study
• Light, color & values
• Composition & visual storytelling

2. World-building & visual thinking

• Environment design (natural & built spaces)
• Props, objects, and visual detail
• Character concepts (anatomy basics, silhouettes, expression)
• Style exploration (realistic, stylized, symbolic, experimental)
• References vs originality: how to build from research without imitation

3. Cognitive & creative process

• Artistic thinking & workflow
• From idea to image
• Documentation & reference gathering
• Moodboards & visual research
• Iteration, selection, refinement
• Knowing when a piece is finished

4. Digital foundations (optional / hybrid)

• Transition from traditional to digital
• 2D digital tools & workflows
• Layer logic, brushes, textures
• Digital painting fundamentals
• Presentation-ready images
• Case studies from professional concept artists & illustrators

This section is optional and may be skipped for students with prior digital experience. In such cases, the focus will be on refining and strengthening what has already been acquired.

IMPORTANT!

All sections in Part I (artistic practice, visual language, world-building, technical and digital foundations) are approached according to the student’s existing level, from beginner to advanced. If foundational skills are already present, these areas will not be repeated mechanically; instead, the focus will shift toward portfolio development, conceptual depth, and refinement of existing work.

PART II

Portfolio development & mentorship

1. Portfolio building

• Defining the student’s artistic direction
• Selecting and developing strong themes
• Creating cohesive series, not isolated images
• Aligning personal style with academic or professional expectations
• Consistent review, feedback, and refinement

2. Application-specific support (where applicable)

• Portfolio selection & sequencing
• Artist statements or motivation letters (with visuals)
• Adapting work to specific institutions or programs
• Understanding evaluation criteria
