In this course, you will learn how to create photorealistic renderings using Blender software. This free and open-source software has seen its notoriety skyrocket in recent years, as it offers tools and results similar to what is done on standard and paid software such as 3d Studio Max or Maya, all in one interface. intuitive and ergonomic workflow.

In this course, you will be able to learn:
-The basics of 3D modeling and 3D in general
-Materials (shaders)
-The highlighting
-Renderings
-Post production

Gradually, we will solidify these skills to learn how to create entire scenes, representing environments, objects, and buildings.

It is also possible to present your projects to me and to obtain personalized help on them.

Do you want to learn the basics of drawing? Or are you already past that level? Do you want to draw on paper (with pencils) or on a screen? Do you want to learn the basics of 2D animation? All for a very reasonable price? We can do it!

Nice to meet you, I'm Daniel. I'm a (private) art teacher, I'm also a freelance artist and have been working as one for about 7 years. I'm looking for students in Utrecht, I have a teaching space available in my apartment (I can share my address when you contact me), but am also able to travel to your desired space within the city.
I can also teach via webcam, but I do recommend my in-person classes, seeing as they're more immersive and educational.

I unfortunately do not speak Dutch (yet), but am confident we can overcome any potential language barrier we come across.

I have the most experience in teaching teenagers and preteens, so I think we would definitely be a good match if you're a parent or guardian looking for a teacher for your child.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Photoshop is a powerful app for photographers. As a photographer, you’ll need to be able to sort through the many complex features that will help make photos better. I’ve designed this course as a practical guide to Photoshop that’s specifically made for learning photographers.

You will learn how to make selections, create masks, retouching portraits and use advanced techniques to not only improve photographs, but to turn them into entirely new images.

Join me in the journey of discovery to find your inner animator. I have skills in multiple fields in this industry. from adobe animate to after effects to 3d Maya and Blender. I'll give you all the tips and skills needed to get going in the animation field

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.

The zero-click search era is no longer a future prediction—it is our current reality. With over 60% of web searches ending without a single click, traditional SEO strategies, keyword rankings, and legacy traffic funnels are rapidly becoming obsolete. In this AI-mediated world, discovery happens inside the "dark funnel" of large language models, where platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews act as the primary interface for your audience.

Your new digital currency is no longer the website click; it is the AI citation.

This masterclass is designed for executives, digital transformation leaders, and marketing strategists who want to pivot from obsolete traffic metrics to AI visibility. Participants will learn how generative engines parse, prioritize, and select the brands they trust. We will break down real data from millions of AI responses to uncover the exact profile of content these models prefer—focusing on open, structured knowledge hubs, informative comparative assets, and definitive educational content.

Move beyond fighting for vanishing organic traffic. Learn how to optimize your digital infrastructure for AI extraction, position your brand as an authoritative industry source, and build lasting consumer trust in a world where the machine is the interface.

My classes are designed to help students and professionals build strong skills in Technical Drawing, AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Fusion 360 (CAD/CAM), whether you are a complete beginner or looking to advance your existing knowledge.

The first class is offered free of charge as an introductory session. This allows us to get to know each other, assess your current skill level, and clearly understand your learning goals. During this session, we will discuss what you want to achieve, whether it is exam preparation, academic support, project assistance, professional development, or mastering industry-standard CAD/CAM workflows.

After the introductory session, I create a personalized learning plan tailored to your needs and pace. My teaching style is practical, patient, and interactive, with step-by-step guidance, hands-on exercises, and real-world examples to ensure you gain both confidence and technical competence.
