Become an artist from the beginning: find your unique style in addition to painting, drawing, digital art, photography techniques
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have been drawing and painting since I was little because I come from a family of painters. Being an artist is not only knowing the techniques but having a story, a unique soul to offer. So I have the experience of creating an image, a style and a goal as an artist.- I have hands-on experience with perspective, anatomy, different paints/materials, how to work on a canvas, etc.
- I have years of experience in digital art using photography, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, etc.
- I create NFTs from my digital art.
- I exhibited at a famous contemporary art fair a few years ago.
- I do book covers and illustrations for publishers.
- I do logo design.

"Have you ever dreamed of being told, 'Your English is amazing – have you lived in the US or England?' If so, you've come to the right place. Traditional schools and formal classes often focus on grammar with a dash of listening practice, but this method can be monotonous and leave you unprepared to speak with confidence. From my own language learning journey, I know there is a better way.
In this course, my goal is to give you the tools to speak like a native speaker from day one. Learning a language is about more than just words and rules: it’s about building a whole new personality in that language. Together, we’ll discover how to think, react, and even joke like a native, so you can make natural connections and be truly understood.
During our first session, we will assess your needs to better adapt the lessons to your level of English. For example, you may have a good level, but your pronunciation is difficult to understand. If you wish, we can focus on specific exercises to improve it. Or, do you have difficulty understanding English speakers who speak quickly? Then we will work together to overcome this obstacle and strengthen your listening skills!
Learn guitar the right way with a professional musician, composer, and producer! Whether you prefer fingerstyle or playing with a pick, I'll teach you the proper techniques to build a solid foundation. You'll also learn how to play chords, and from the very first lessons, you'll be able to have fun playing your favorite songs! This course is designed to help you not only improve, but also enjoy making music. Let's turn your guitar dreams into reality—start playing, creating, and having fun today!
For those who already have a sufficient level, I can also teach how to compose original melodies, riffs and sounds, as well as the basics of recording and production. This will allow you to unleash your creativity and bring your own musical creations to life!

CINEMA, ACTING, IMPROVISATION WORKSHOPS - - -These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting.
Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive.
The objective of this training is to be able to:
- Analyze and dissect a text
- Create, develop and embody a character
- Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play
- Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity
(...)
Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives.
PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.
These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.
- As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

From a Grande Ecole post-preparatory class in France & Ivy League University in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 14 years in the field, in international establishments, intervening in forums and conferences.
