Whether you are a beginner or experienced, and whatever your motivations (personal, professional or school ...), I offer you a tailor-made education. We will start by establishing a program together during your 1st lesson, according to your needs and interests.

- A qualified and experienced illustrator artist teacher at the service and listening to the student.
- A frequently updated shared space (google drive) containing all the necessary documentation and tools available to students who wish to continue their practice outside of class hours.

I offer accelerated training, as well as assistance in building the portfolio and preparation for interviews (On request).
• Special > For professionals and future professionals in fine crafts & Designer:

Thematic courses of 5 half-days during school holidays.
Timetable:
I am available on weekdays from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. to give you private lessons, but also on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. for lessons in small numbers (maximum 3 students per slot), for those who appreciate sharing and stimulation of the group while maintaining the rapid progress dynamic of a small class.
My schedule remains quite flexible, however, so do not hesitate to tell me your preferences to reserve the right slots for you.
My methodology is simple:
Thanks to a first preliminary telephone or video meeting with the student (and a parent if the student is a minor) I begin to identify the questions, needs and objectives of the student in order to establish a program.
This program will be refined as the course progresses according to the centers of interest and qualities revealed by the student.
My teaching is progressive. I take the student where he is in his practice and pull him up, to the maximum of his abilities, whatever the medium chosen: pencil, brush, graphics tablet...
To maintain his motivation, I punctuate the student's program with inspiring and stimulating subjects related to his interests, such as the drawing of his own comic strip / manga, OR, the printing of his 3D figurine.
Course operation:
Because we do not all progress in the same way, I propose 2 different modes of operation.
During a lesson:
- The student works on original subjects and application exercises, edited by myself and adapted to the student and his program.
WHERE
- The student expresses the need to be helped/guided on a specific creative project of his initiative, or a subject of his school's visual arts lesson, at the start of the lesson. In which case, I bring him as many keys as possible (methodology, references, documentation and techniques) until the end of his project.
Of course, the mode of the course can change from one course to another in order to alternate rigor and freedom of experimentation.
At the end of the session, I take stock with the student of what has been done, must be continued and addressed soon. He/She can contact me between 2 sessions if necessary.
For parents / guardians of minor students, I offer a quarterly report on the progress of their child / tutee. It is also possible for them to come and talk to me at the end of the course or to contact me during the week by email or telephone.
Minimum age: 11 years old - No maximum age.
Feedback:
Minor students and parents
Many families with children requiring a different pace from that offered by their schools say that my classes have greatly helped them, first of all to quickly feel more confident. Similarly, precocious children find here the intellectual nourishment that they sometimes lack in the teaching received in class.
What I have observed that is obvious about my private lessons and in small groups is that the student develops:
- his autonomy, because he takes the time for self-correction.
- his commitment, because by advancing at his own pace he really becomes an actor in his learning.
- his disinhibition (vis-à-vis the teacher, parents, and classmates for students in small classes), by granting him a neutral space/time for experimentation without competition or judgment.
Amateur Adults
What has struck me the most over the last few years while following active adults working in sectors not directly linked to creative activities, is the need to discover or accomplish something new and the desire to share. This is why each year is a new adventure full of projects of all kinds, but sometimes also hard work!... depending on your characters and objectives...
Professionals and future professionals Crafts & Designer
In artistic professions, crafts, or any other design activity, the ability to express and represent quickly and effectively all or part of a 2-dimensional concept is very useful, even essential.
The greater the professional designer's mastery of these arts and techniques, the more eloquent his future representations, sketches, scenarios, projections, will be, whether presenting a project to a client, a colleague or set a stage, a model. This is why I adapt my teaching of drawing and color (perspective, representation of plans, volumes, textures, colored harmonies, ...) to the specific needs of the professionals who approach my course, whether they are designers of interior designers, graphic designers, fashion designers, landscape designers, architects, or decorative painters. And so far, everyone has been satisfied!
