Robin
Trusted teacher
I’m a drawing teacher and artist living in Paris. Since 6 years, I provide drawing class to many publics, from school to urban sketching sessions. Since two years, I also give online drawing class for all public. I have an IPad, so I can share my screen to guide my student by drawing directly on it and show them some drawing technics as if we were on the same spot. Learning drawing is half about learning basics technics, like perspective, contrasts and human form, and half about trusting your own vision, by observation work or imagination exercices. My teaching program is always a combination of those elements.
When you walk in Paris, every street seems like a monument. There’s always a building, a statue, or even the street itself that is part of History. Drawing is a great way to discover a big city. It demands to slow down and pay better attention to what you see. It is also a good way to keep memory of your travelling experience, more personal and original than a photo. As an urban sketcher and art teacher, I offer a drawing experience in the streets of Paris. Depending of which area you want to discover, these sessions can go from 2 to 4 hours. Everybody can draw, so don’t worry if you’re afraid of the exercise, the main goal is to have fun ! I will help you with simple technics to build sketchings. Don’t hesitate to ask me with you have any questions :)
Drawing course - Observation and imagination A graduate of Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2017, I specialize in observational drawing in public space. My artistic practice brings sketching into dialogue with woodcut, painting and more recently writing. At the same time, I pursue educational work with many audiences: private child/adult lessons, schools, technical and creativity initiation courses. Whether it's weekly lessons or more specific sessions, I adapt to the rhythm, level and sensitivity of my students. The exercises are adapted to the creative singularity of each. For beginners, the important thing is to gain confidence in your ability to observe, tell, let go. I attach great importance to the fact that the practice of drawing remains above all a pleasure! Paris/near suburbs, lesson from 1h to 2h according to requests.

Robin was wonderful!! He is a very warm, patient teacher and knows (in English) how to explain art techniques to a beginner. He was very amenable when I had to change dates and ran over the scheduled time when I was late showing up because I went to the wrong Starbucks. I will definitely call him again on my next trip to Paris. 5 stars!!!
