Drawing, Painting, and Fine Arts classes for beginners, advanced students, adults, and art admirers

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.

About Me

During more than 12 years of professional Art education and practice I have explored, analysed, and established values and aesthetics in Art configured by knowledge, taste, criticism, cultural algorithms, social demands, 'trends' influence, gathered together and refined by validations proved to be accurate and defining.
I feel determined to pass my experience on the young generation and people who are committed to 'learn' with the attempt to not only introduce to them the foundations of developing artistic skills to achieve technical proficiency, but also to build confidence and aim highly, without losing the joy and admiration to Art.
Learning the essence and fundamental principles of Drawing and Painting requires extreme patience, discipline, consistency, dedication, and time. In our dynamic modern times, as Art is associated with unprecedented freedom, it is even more challenging to master those skills and apply them in modern means and approaches. Creative process is indeed the most compelling, hypnotising, and liberating 'adventure', but to 'write a word that really means something, you cannot do without knowing A, B, C... from the alphabet'
I am here to help students understand the incredible comprehensiveness of Art, to learn step by step the difficult but intriguing process of Drawing and Painting, and to guide them in utilizing the freedom this knowledge gives to unleash talent and creativity with confidence and vigour.

Abstract Drawing and Mindfulness (A delve into the subconscious)
In this class we will explore drawing through a series of therapeutic art and mindfulness exercises. This class is designed to encourage students to free the mind of judgement and explore the realms of unpredictability and subconscious creation. You will be lead through simple techniques of mark making, pattern and experimental drawing with a focus on breathing and sensation. As well as drawing to music, poems and film, we will be taking a look at a few artists who have worked within the realms of the abstract drawing and the subconscious. The aim of this class is to quieten our conscious mind and place our thoughts completely in the present, in turn creating a deeper connection with ourselves and the world around us.

Fine arts and mixed media - Drawing, paiting, sculpture, printmaking, and more.
Are you a new aspiring artist trying your hand at creating artwork for the first time? Or do you want to improve your skills with valuable advice on your practice perhaps in preparation for a course of study or to perfect your technique? Contemporary art offers a wide range of possibilities and mediums. Through over eleven years of studying and practicing Fine Arts, I have acquired a deep love and appreciation for traditional art techniques such as traditional technical painting and drawing, and mixed media sculpting but also enjoyed experimenting with uncountable numbers of other unconventional media integrating them with contemporary languages. My course will help you improve your skills or learn from scratch how to get drawings, sculptures and paintings according to your goals.

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.
