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.

Graduated in visual arts in Italy and in art history in the United Kingdom, and specialized in art therapy in Belgium, I am a figurative conceptual artist. Specialized in oil painting, I offer painting and drawing lessons for adults and teenagers, giving a method of technical improvement valid for all pictorial styles.
My course is aimed at developing the student's creativity, through the exploration of the techniques and poetics of modern and contemporary artists.
Media used: paint: oil, watercolor, acrylic, gouache; drawing: charcoal, dry pastels, graphite.

Workshop course.
Days: to be agreed with the student

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.

I offer to train you in painting figurines, to help you assemble and paint figurines belonging to various ranges of games such as Warhammer, Warhammer 40000, Lord of the Rings, Dungeons & Dragons or even any Kickstarter board game.

This course can also be supplemented with conversions and advanced techniques such as OSL, NMN, wash, glaze or grimdark.

I remain at your disposal for any questions or possible information needs.

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!

Tailored advice is provided from beginners to the more advanced. Phil takes you through each step of a composition. He acts as a coach, dispensing advice and tips on how to get the best result. He provides inspiration thanks to artist books, reproductions of artworks, exhibitions to visit and more. You can develop your skills in any area you like (landscape, portraiture, abstraction, still life, animals...) and try out all sorts of techniques (oil, acrylic painting, drawing, pastel, inks...) A wide variety of exercises that will make your capacities grow.

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 :)

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.
