Digital drawing and illustration courses: develop your technique and your artistic style

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 58 C$ /h

As a professional illustrator and concept artist, I offer personalized drawing, illustration, and digital painting lessons, primarily for adults and teenagers. Children interested in learning to draw can also be guided with age-appropriate exercises.

The course content is tailored to your level, goals, and interests. We can work on the fundamentals of drawing: observation, construction, proportions, perspective, light, color, and composition. Sessions can also focus on creating characters, creatures, settings, and fantasy, historical, or science fiction worlds.

For students interested in digital illustration, I offer an introduction or advanced course on Photoshop: getting to grips with the software, using layers and painting tools, creating a composition, coloring, working on atmospheres and finalizing an illustration.

Each lesson includes explanations, demonstrations, practical exercises, and personalized feedback. I can also assist you with a personal project, the development of your artistic style, or the improvement of your portfolio.

My method is based on my professional experience and on a process combining visual research, sketching, composition, 3D bases when useful, then paintover and 2D finishing touches.

Extra information

For traditional drawing, you will need paper, pencils, an eraser and a webcam to easily show your work.

For digital illustration, a graphics tablet, a computer, and Photoshop are recommended. Screen sharing will allow you to follow demonstrations and receive feedback directly during the lesson.

Before the first session, you can tell me your level, your objectives and the equipment you have so that I can prepare a suitable lesson.

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.

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.

As a multidisciplinary artist, I believe that strong digital work is rooted in traditional mastery. This course combines the tactile logic of oil painting and watercolors with the power of Photoshop and digital design. We begin with the core fundamentals, anatomy, still life, and composition before transitioning those skills into the digital space.

You will learn to control digital brushes, build convincing lighting, and apply color with intention. We move beyond simple tutorials to tackle character design, surreal environments, and professional workflows. By the end of this course, you will have a body of polished, original work and a deep understanding of the design fundamentals that make an image successful in any medium.

By the end, you’ll produce portfolio-ready artworks and understand a professional workflow from sketch to finish. Each session combines hands-on exercises with discussion of artistic choices, so you strengthen both technical skill and creative judgment.

This course is for beginners and intermediate artists who want to go beyond tutorials and actually build a body of polished, original work.

Let me show you how creative you already are! In this class we will explore creativity through engaging exercises, imagination challenges, games, storytelling, observation, and experimentation. The goal isn’t to become an artist – it’s to strengthen curiosity, confidence, flexible thinking, and the ability to generate new ideas.

Suitable for children, teenagers, and adults, these sessions are adapted to each person’s age, interests, and goals. Whether you’re looking to nurture a child’s imagination, reconnect with your own creativity, or simply try something new, you’ll find a supportive space to explore without pressure or judgment.

No previous experience is required – only curiosity 😊

Many people want to start drawing but hesitate. "I don't have the time," "I don't have the talent," "I'm not good enough," and other things like that. What I suggest is overcoming these fears and diving headfirst into drawing.

Adult, teenager, child—everyone has the right to learn to draw with lessons tailored to the student's level and their reasons for wanting to draw. A personal passion? Want to recreate your favorite manga? Create your own comic? Or even pick up drawing again? I can teach you all of that, no problem.
