Private lessons of Digital painting, drawing and sketching for game art, concept art and illustration online or in person

A partir de 61.71 $ /h

Photoshop is used differently for painting and drawing than for photography retouching. I will show you how to use all the tools of the program, but I will also teach you how to think about game art, concept art and illustration, whether it is for character design, creature design, environment design or prop design. I will also teach you all the fundamentals that are essential in the industry, such as anatomy, perspective, colour and light, and composition.

After graduating from l'École Émile Cohl with a bachelor specialised in Game Art, I have had the chance of working with more than 15 different studios of video games, board games, trading card games and tabletop RPGs, creating concept art and illustrations for them. Now an Art Teacher, I use my experience and skills both as an artist and as a teacher to share with you all my knowledge of the subject and of the industry.

Acerca de mí

I'm Nassima, I am a professional concept artist, illustrator and tutor, and I am passionate about art, films and video games.

Working as a freelance concept artist, 2D game artist and illustrator for 5 years has helped me to create visually stunning assets for games, and understand what it is that makes a great concept art or a great illustration. I am fully proficient in Adobe Photoshop, and I am an expert when it comes to the art fundamentals. I was also taught art traditionally, and master a variety of traditional techniques (pencil, charcoal, watercolour, gouache, dry pastel, acrylics...). Finally, I have been using Blender more and more in my process recently, which makes my teaching now more relevant.

Being multilingual (French, English, Italian, and Japanese) has equipped me with a strong understanding of how to teach people from different backgrounds, and has allowed me connect on a deeper level with my students.

Another one of my passions is music, as I sing and play the flute. There are lots of similarities between visual arts and music, which I sometimes use to teach my students who are musicians.

Finally, I am a patient teacher, I connect easily with my students and love to adapt my lessons to the needs and taste of each student for a guaranteed success.

Come and discover digital arts, animation and illustration with me. I am an artist that works in digital and traditional illustrations. You can enjoy with me the world of the line, shapes, colours and even stories using different kind of techniques such as pencil, ink, markers, watercolour and colours. We can also use in the digital world Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator. clip studio, paint, medibang paint and Firealpaca.

Digital art requires no less skill than traditional art making, but it does require a different mode of thinking. Yes, a digital device will have the ability to make a stroke look and layer like watercolour or give the texture of drawing with charcoal. However, when one learns traditional art techniques, they gain a deeper understanding of the materials and what they can do.

Beginners / Intermediate or Advanced classes of Adobe Illustrator.

Adobe Illustrator is a powerful drawing software program offered by Adobe. Anyone, regardless of artistic or computer ability, can use Illustrator to draw shapes and lines, create text, or import graphics and pictures. You can use Illustrator to do a layout for a book, create a web page, and the list goes on.

I have been using Illustrator among other Adobe software for the last 15 years of my designer career and I teach them all at the University where I work since 2018.

Do you want to learn the basics of drawing? Or are you already past that level? Do you want to draw on paper (with pencils) or on a screen? Do you want to learn the basics of 2D animation? All for a very reasonable price? We can do it!

Nice to meet you, I'm Daniel. I'm a (private) art teacher, I'm also a freelance artist and have been working as one for about 7 years. I'm looking for students in Utrecht, I have a teaching space available in my apartment (I can share my address when you contact me), but am also able to travel to your desired space within the city.
I can also teach via webcam, but I do recommend my in-person classes, seeing as they're more immersive and educational.

I unfortunately do not speak Dutch (yet), but am confident we can overcome any potential language barrier we come across.

I have the most experience in teaching teenagers and preteens, so I think we would definitely be a good match if you're a parent or guardian looking for a teacher for your child.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

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.

Drawing with a pencil on paper or digitally has its science, creating characters and giving them life is another level, applying color with markers or paint requires perfection in the technique. That's why I'm here, to take you detail by detail through this world of art, to teach you everything you need to know about illustration (realism, human figure, landscaping, shadows) with (pencils, colors, markers, acrylics, vinyl, oils) or digitally (Photoshop, Procreate, Sketchbook) and much more. Just tell me what catches your attention and we'll work there.

Drawing is a fun activity. It's very interesting to see how the lines take shape as you draw them, and it's also satisfying when you take the finished drawing home.

This workshop is aimed at people of all ages, from children to adults who love to draw and want to learn tricks and tips for drawing.

You can bring anything you like and would like to draw, whether it's a manga, a photograph, or even the actual object if you can bring it with you. If you don't have anything in particular, we'll look at the materials I've prepared together and I'll give you tips on how to draw!

You can draw on paper with a pencil or marker, or if you have a tablet, that's fine too.
