Painting, drawing, Chinese calligraphy, ink painting lessons

Everyone can draw great pictures! I have been studying painting for ten years, from impressionism to Chinese traditional painting, to abstract art. I will help you to paint whatever you are interested in and want to make.
I am a professional artist and an art educator. I can teach you oil painting, acrylic painting, pencil/marker drawing, ink painting, calligraphy, etc, whatever you would like to learn. My class is very encouraging and inspiring because I believe everyone has the potential to be a good artist and I only provide another way of thinking.

Good teacher. Good lesson.
Want to learn Chinese language? As a native speaker, I am happy to help you get interested in this beautiful language and speak more accurately in your daily conversation or business situation. We will use the structural curriculum on certain topics or grammar; or practice speaking skills. In my class, you will have a happy and relaxing environment of learning. I will teach in English. I have studied for three years in the US, so my English is fluent enough to teach. (I am also an English teacher in Germany.)

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.

Drawing and Painting Lessons: Developing Your Unique Visual Language
Painting and drawing are not just techniques—they are also powerful tools for presentation, mediation, and self-expression. This class will guide you through the essentials of painting and drawing, covering foundational skills such as perspective, anatomy, and color theory, as well as techniques for analyzing and critiquing artwork. From still life and portraiture to landscapes, abstract painting, and multimedia art, this course will support you in developing your unique visual language. Based on your individual goals and interests, I will create a tailored plan to help you achieve the best possible outcomes in your artistic journey.

Idris
Painting Tutor: Discover and develop your artistic language
I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London. Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don’t always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you! Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs. The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language. (Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it. But also be mindful that as we grow our interests can change and as they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.) Have questions? Don’t hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

Every class is suited towards your skill level and needs. If you're interested in digital art, you can learn how to create digital arts using Krita, a free digital arts software that I highly recommend for it's tools and features similar to that of Photoshop's. If you already experimented on your own software, I will help you with rendering, anatomy, and composition. If you're interested in painting, I can provide materials if needed. I am experienced with both oil painting and acrylic painting. I can help you create both Fine Arts, or illustration. About me: Hello, my name is Jacey and I'm currently attending NYU to get my certification to teach visual arts K-12. The reason I want to become an art teacher is to help students develop their own style. Everybody has their own habits and tendencies when making art, and I want to help you thrive using your own style– or, if you want to become the master of realism and copying, I can help with that too. Every artists has their own goals! I also believe in creating art as a way of a stress-reliever. If you'd like to do your own thing while having someone to listen to, I can create art by your side and talk about you!

Online drawing course for children aged 5 to 12 years

It is an ideal activity for developing their motor and mental skills and enhancing their exploratory, psychological and emotional growth. - It increases children's ability to interact naturally without caring about other people's opinions about the drawings they draw. -It eliminates the constant feeling of shyness and increases self-confidence. - Enhances the mind's ability to communicate with others without using words.
