Into to 3D Art and Design using Blender, a Free Software

From 55.45 C$ /h

In this class you will learn basic to intermediate 3D modeling skills in Blender or basic to intermediate skills in Plasticity 3D. Blender is a free software used by professionals in all fields of 3D. Be it film, games, movies or just hobbies, like 3D printing, Blender is great!
In my Blender course the student will be using the basic version of Blender 4.2 with some extensions.
If a paid extension is needed, it will be provided free of charge via Dropbox.

Plasticity is a easy to learn CAD like software, geared towards artists. Although not currently adopted by the industry, Plasticity has a bright and promising future and currently is great for hard surface modeling, for things like weapons and vehicles. (plasticity is a paid software and is optional if desired)

Students will begin their first lesson by downloading and preparing the software they choose for tutoring.
In the second lesson and onward, students will be guided at a customized pace through the process of making their very own assets. This course will build confidence and allow the student to build skills in 3D modeling, sculpting, texturing and animation. As an optional bonus the student may also choose to learn 3D printing.

Extra information

English speakers only please! Bring a computer with at least 4 cores, 16 gigs of ram and any GPU. Blender 4.2 does not function well on very old hardware with no GPU. Please bring a pair of headphones and a microphone.

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.

Painting and drawing are not just techniques—they are also powerful tools for presentation, mediation, and self-expression. This class will guide you through the essentials of painting and drawing, covering foundational skills such as perspective, anatomy, and color theory, as well as techniques for analyzing and critiquing artwork.

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.

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 12 years of practice teaching people how to do it. We work together step by step to understand the technique, the way to prepare wooden panel to paint an icon and the techniques of making a good project to make the icon fit to the board. We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the halos. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

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 :)

I come from a strong creative foundation, having studied industrial design and developed a deep background in the arts. Over time, my career evolved into English teaching, where I discovered that my creativity naturally enhanced my approach to language education. Alongside teaching, I provided extensive coaching for both my dance students and my English learners, helping them build confidence, communication skills, and personal expression.

This unique combination of design thinking, artistic experience, and coaching allows me to support students not only with English—especially conversation and exam preparation—but also with broader communication skills that help them express themselves more effectively.

Do you love to draw and create? No matter what stage you’re at, let me help you feel confident in moving closer your creative goals!
If you’re looking for fun, engaging, comprehensive guidance for your creative project or process, you’re in the right place. We can tailor the course to your particular desired outcome 🎨

Creativity is an extension of play, and creativity flows best in an encouraging, relaxed, and fun environment, so that is a priority to me in my approach to these lessons. I want to guide you in the practical aspects but also provide dynamic support (the creative process is not always straightforward!)

I have a BA in Illustration, 3 years experience teaching a comics class for kids aged 6+, and 10 years as a professional working artist specialising in narrative and comic illustration.

Suggested topics include: basic drawing, and using tools, style, colour, movement, composition, writing, character design, anatomy drawing, storyboarding, and lettering.

Ceramic is a natural and ancient material. Connect with the pleasure of clay modeling and shape utilitarian pieces such as bowls and vases, accessories or characters and countless decorative figures.
I am a professional illustrator with more than 15 years of experience and ceramics have captivated me. I tooked classes with the artist Lusesita (Laura Lasheras) and then continued self-taught.
We will go at your pace and you will walk your own path. Mud is for all ages and times. The frequency of classes is once a week, one hour, an hour and a half or two hours. If you need more frequent or intensive classes, please don't hesitate to ask.
I recommend the one-hour in-person class for the little ones, an hour and a half for when they grow up, and the two-hour class for adults, to go without rushing. If it is online, in both cases I recommend an hour or an hour and a half.

I teach film acting classes with a focus on acting for film, TV, and commercials. In these classes, you will learn how to act naturally and believably in front of the camera, with attention to subtlety, timing, and awareness of framing and shots.

We work with text and scenes, with an emphasis on script interpretation, emotional build-up, and developing authentic acting for various formats. You will learn how to adapt your acting to commercials (clear and direct) and to film and series (layered and subtle).

The lessons are tailored to your playing level, so that you can develop at your own pace and work specifically on your strengths and areas for improvement.

Thanks to my experience as both an actor and a director, you will gain insight not only into acting but also into how a set works. I will guide you through the practical side of the field, such as auditions, self-tapes, collaborating with the director and camera, and what is expected of you on a shooting day.

The lessons are personal and aimed at developing self-confidence and camera acting skills. Suitable for both children and adults.

The lessons can be given in Dutch or English.

It does not require a talent to draw because talent itself is worthless without hard-work, and i am teaching the most effective ways to actually start having some motion and notice the improvements in your drawings.
it will be a long and a fun journey to reach what level each one of you desires.

Fashion design can feel overwhelming when you are trying to build a portfolio, apply to university, improve your fashion projects or create your own collection. You may have strong ideas, but not know how to turn them into clear research, professional drawings, a commercial range or work that looks ready for the fashion industry.

I am an industry fashion designer with experience across womenswear, youthwear, jersey, leisurewear, casualwear, partywear, graphics, product development and commercial collection building. I currently work in supplier-side fashion design, developing trend-led product for major high-street retail. I have also worked across girlswear, boyswear, menswear, luxury swimwear and private luxury collection development for high-profile clients.

In these lessons, I can help you understand how fashion design works in the real industry. We can work on portfolio development, university portfolio preparation, trend research, customer research, mood boards, colour palettes, fabric direction, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, CADs, technical fashion drawings, range building, tech packs and final presentation.

I can also help you build your own commercial fashion design collection from concept to final outcome. This includes understanding your target customer, developing a strong design direction, creating a balanced range, refining silhouettes, choosing colours and fabrics, and presenting your work in a way that feels polished, current and professional.

My main specialism is womenswear and youth-market fashion, especially trend-led product for teenage to young adult customers. I can also support projects across girlswear, boyswear, menswear and swimwear, helping you understand how design changes depending on age range, customer, fit, fabric, price point and brand direction.

My teaching style is friendly, practical and honest. We will look at your current level, your goals and what your work needs in order to improve. The aim is to help you gain confidence, develop stronger ideas and create fashion work that feels ready for university, internships, placements, graduate roles or your own brand.
