Freehand still life and architectural drawing sketching - traditional medium

From 86.83 C$ /h

The freehand drawing is the first tool used in designing a building, the daily practice of the architectural design process. In the age of computers, despite its visibility has decreased, freehand drawings have become even more precious; the role of freehand drawing in communicating our ideas and thoughts gives us the opportunity to make use of the simplest intuitive connection between our mind and the hand through exercising our bidimensional skills in order to represent a tridimensional universe.

The class will be organised upon the traditional still life drawing technique in atelier/workshop. The student is placed at a distance from the still figure that allows them to place their easel and paper next to the object to be represented. The drawing and the object will be the same size, which allows for easier comparison of distances and angles carefully measured.
We will learn hatching technique used to create tonal or shading effects, and many other techniques of drawing elements of design: layer tinting, texturing and form lines.

The class includes advanced notions of perspective.

Extra information

The main medium is graphite pencils, but we will also learn how to use instruments like charcoal, ink, watercolor, inked brushes, various kinds of erasers.

Hello! I propose you drawing lessons or painting fun, because I am convinced that one learns better while having fun. I design courses upstream, depending on the personality and level of each. The two main axes are the technique and the development of the imaginary, the putting into practice of an idea. I can move if you have space for creativity and concentration.
Holder of a degree in Fine Arts, but also an animator, I like to share my passion, and has for it a pedagogical know-how. See you soon!

Private Painting and Drawing lessons, any level! I am a classically trained painter, I have been painting seriously for 20 years and studied intensively in Florence, Italy. I will teach you the basics about light, form, line, colour and space, and how to constantly grow and improve. We start with drawing from observation and continue to other mediums, including oil paint, once the student is ready.

Landscape, still life, portrait, expressive. My goal is to help my students improve every time and reach a new level. I provide many examples from art history as well as my own work, and give lots of demonstrations. I offer a personalized approach fitted to each student.

The classes are in a small group format, no more than 4 at a time and each student works at their own pace, it is private classes with other students present, offering a supportive environment in which to learn and grow. Each student receives personalized instruction at their own level. Each student is guaranteed to improve.

I ask for a commitment of 5 lessons at a time to see some improvement, and I accept students who are looking for longer term learning. Commitment is a must to grow! Try out one lesson to see if the class is a good for for you. My students tend to stay with me for the long term, if it is the right fit.

The classes take place in my studio in the charming location of Grand Hospice, a converted hospice in the city center of Brussels.

I'm teaching practical techniques to greatly improve your art and also the creativity boost methods you'll need to develop original ideas. I'm giving fun lessons on subjects that are necessary fundamentals of being able to create strong and bold artworks.

I can teach digital art, oil painting, watercolor, pencil drawing and comics.
We'll design classes together based on your needs.

All skill levels are welcome and will benefit from this lessons.

I teach in such a way as to fully respect everyone's desires and inspirations: art must remain personal and exciting. Each lesson is adapted to the student(s). It can be both academic courses (technique and mastery of different materials), as well as reflection on the challenges of art, or even the development of a personal project...

I am a very passionate person when it comes to making fun with colors, drawing, crafts, and calligraphy.
Teaching these subjects brings me immense delight and satisfaction. Moreover, I hold a strong belief in the beauty of elegant handwriting. My instructional approach is centered on guiding learners from basics and foundational concepts to an advanced level of mastery.

As a former student of ENSAV La Cambre, I can offer introductory courses in fashion design, as well as training in fashion design techniques and styling.

The level and type of the course may vary depending on the level of the student and what he wants to develop.

A lot of people think they cannot draw. But before drawing, it is about "seeing". Actually if you can see, you can draw. Not only objects, but portraits, animals, whatever you want. By developing the aptitude of observing the reality using the right part of your brain, you learn how to draw what you really see instead of drawing what you think you already know about this reality.
This technique was a revelation as it allowed me to progress quickly when I was young. It's on this base that I will help you to learn another way of looking at things around you and show you some tricks to overcome difficulties as perspective, foreshorten,...

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.

If you love animals and love to draw, then this is the course for you. We'll start off with basic anatomy of a variety of animals, since understanding their inner structure is essential for accurate drawing. We'll also cover animal movement, and how their form changes as they move. Then, best of all, we'll also draw animals from life!

To create a simple illustration, a beautiful poster or a comic strip, you will acquire several artistic disciplines. Drawing, layout, color theory, character creation, as well as narrative sequence and screenwriting.

A mix of practical information and theoretical bases shared in a good mood to express yourself and create beautiful things!

Note: ALL SUPPLIES & TOOLS ARE PROVIDED FOR THE STUDENTS FOR THE FIRST TEN (10) LESSONS — All canvas, stretcher-bars, panels, paper, brushes, pens, pencils, ink, charcoal, paints, varnish, etc. The finished artworks are, of course, your to keep.

There are many ways to create a so-called "realistic" oil painting. And there are many visual tools that an artist can use to make a beautiful visual statement. Whether using thick impastos, thin washes of solvent-based color, bodied glazes, or mixed media elements, each technique can yield an engaging visual experience. Painting is, after all, a means of communication.

In this course, we will begin with the basic ideas and techniques for drawing and painting forms as the eye sees them. You will learn every stage for producing aesthetically pleasing and technically strong oil paintings. We will discuss concepts and ideas for painting, developing different studies, stretching the canvas, line drawing, tonal lay-in, dead-coloring (or color block-in), and modeling the forms (1st painting, 2nd painting, and finishing). We will also cover the techniques of alla prima or premier coup (direct painting in one pass). We will also study the formal methods of composition, different kinds of perspectives, paint surface and paint quality (facture), and proportions. And, of course, we will discuss the use of varnishes, including the final picture varnish.

Stay calm and confident if some of these terms are new to you. We will adapt the lessons for each artist. I will help you to learn, understand, and perform each step of the painting process.

Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced painter: there is something for you!

With a compassionate and rigorous approach, I will help you explore your creativity and cultivate your artistic style. Regardless of your level or learning challenges, I am committed to supporting you on your artistic journey with enthusiasm and dedication.

Unlike my other more structured classes, this one is aimed at people who simply wish to have a space in which to engage in visual art in a very free way. My knowledge, experience, and critiques are of course available, but the point of the course is to experiment with techniques and create without judgement, restriction, or direction.

Specializing in colored pencil, pastel, graphite pencil and watercolor techniques, I have been teaching drawing for several years to a varied audience, from beginners to advanced artists.
A graduate of La Cambre (2017) and an associate professor of the Brussels Academy of Fine Arts (2021), I support each person according to their objectives: technical learning, personal project development, portfolio preparation or tailor-made coaching.
I work on a variety of themes: portrait, realism, illustration, animal, plant, and more depending on your desires.
I adapt to all levels in a caring and secure environment, conducive to exploration and progression.
