The aim of the Atelier Gentilléen is to teach drawing and painting. The creative method is transmitted through the practice of gouache drawing from life, in color, in small groups. This work can be continued on canvas or in other forms depending on the wishes and discoveries of each person.

I teach all these practices for twenty years in art schools, I put this expertise at your disposal openly and in small groups.

About Me
I teach visual arts techniques (sketching, drawing, intention drawing, rough, color theory, representation techniques, documentary study, perspective, visual expression, theory of contemporary art) for twenty years in schools of art and applied arts.
I accompany doctoral students in their research, everyone finds their own way.

The experience of the sketch which involves passing through a moment of indeterminacy, and respecting the balance between the whole and each part of the pattern in shaping the form, is the key to all visual arts practices.

Drawing course - Observation and imagination

A graduate of Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2017, I specialize in observational drawing in public space.
My artistic practice brings sketching into dialogue with woodcut, painting and more recently writing.

At the same time, I pursue educational work with many audiences: private child/adult lessons, schools, technical and creativity initiation courses.
Whether it's weekly lessons or more specific sessions, I adapt to the rhythm, level and sensitivity of my students. The exercises are adapted to the creative singularity of each.

For beginners, the important thing is to gain confidence in your ability to observe, tell, let go. I attach great importance to the fact that the practice of drawing remains above all a pleasure!

Paris/near suburbs, lesson from 1h to 2h according to requests.

Whether you want to pursue visual arts professionally or not, it is one of the best ways to express yourself creatively.

This course will teach you how to develop drawing and painting skills in various art mediums, along with references from art history so that you can freely express yourself.
The structure of the lessons can be modified according to the needs of the student, and can also included visits to museums and contemporary art exhibitions. With younger children or amateurs, we can delve into crafts, collage, sketching and doodling and for people with some experience we can think about more advanced painting compositions, even installation and basics of stop-motion animation.

However, it is not at all necessary to have a lot of knowledge of the visual arts, only curiosity and interest.

(The price remains the same for upto three students during a session)

Having worked in an art studio where I gave lessons to children (from 6 to 13 years old), young teenagers (from 14 to 16 years old) and adults (all ages), I now offer my services to accompany your child or teenager in learning different drawing and painting techniques, and to give them the necessary tools to progress and practice independently.
Having studied art history, I like to propose themes by introducing an artistic movement or an artist within their context before tackling a practical subject. If the student prefers to focus solely on learning drawing or painting techniques, that is perfectly possible, although an artistic dimension will still be present, if only through images of artworks, which I consider important for illustrating the techniques.
I offer lessons with a minimum duration of one hour and, in order to promote effective progress, I favour working on the same theme and the same technique over several sessions, while adapting to the expectations and pace of the student.

My courses cover drawing, animation, and 3D, with a common goal: learning to understand what we create.

I offer a structured curriculum, designed to transmit the fundamentals progressively and smoothly, in order to effectively develop all essential skills

We will work on the fundamentals: training the eye, constructing correctly, mastering proportions and improving the quality of the line.

These principles allow us to analyze what we observe and represent it accurately. The goal is to no longer draw randomly, but to know what we are doing at each step.

In parallel, we will develop creativity: learning to build ideas, creating mood boards, experimenting, iterating and developing a rich and solid reference library.

These principles then apply to animation and 3D, where we will also discuss mastering the software.

Combining technical understanding with creativity results in work that is both controlled and personal, regardless of the medium.

Each course is tailored to the student's level and objective, in order to allow for rapid progress and the development of genuine learning autonomy.

Assistance available for preparing portfolios for art school entrance exams.
