Creative painting and watercolor technique workshop for all levels
Within this class you will be able to immerse yourself in one of the most appreciated and captivating artistic expressions for artists: the use of watercolor. The versatility and delicacy of its results are outstanding reasons that attract participants. By applying layers of transparent colors, achieved through mixing pigments with water that interacts with the paper, students have the opportunity to experience a wide variety of effects, whether soft, ethereal, vibrant or intense. The workshop addresses a wide range of artistic topics, from the creation of landscapes and portraits to the representation of objects and nature. The unique ability of watercolor to highlight luminosity and create fluid images is highlighted. In addition, the technique offers the possibility of incorporating abundant details through the use of various brushes, allowing participants to explore their creativity. At the same time, the workshop encourages artistic freedom by being open to the artist's spontaneity, giving them the space to creatively release their imagination through the brush.

Colorimetry: the color theory necessary for visual artists and makeup artists
Colorimetry is a fundamental tool to begin to understand the behavior of colors, where they come from, and how to obtain them. We will see the color wheel, primary and secondary colors, and how to apply them to create different types of palettes. In turn, we will see the triads of colors to generate cold and warm palettes, and you will experience first-hand how to create those colors. We will also have a brief part of research into pigments (the source of color) and works of art throughout history, to see the use of different painting techniques. Since we are going to focus in our classes on color theory, it is not strictly necessary that you know how to draw or paint, or that you have knowledge of perspective or others. This course is designed to complement your knowledge of art and improve your ability to choose the colors and palette you want to work with. As a bonus, this course will also help you apply your knowledge when applying makeup or applying makeup, since if it is something that interests you, let me know and we will incorporate it into the course. We will see how to apply colors according to the person's eye color and skin tones. I have a degree in Visual Arts with a Painting orientation from the National University of the Arts of Argentina and a theatrical makeup artist at the Theater Complex of the City of Buenos Aires and I am happy to be able to share my knowledge with you. If this is what you were looking for, welcome and I hope we start a very nice working relationship! See you in class, Camila.

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.
