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.

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 :)

My name is Nayara, and I offer art classes tailored to each student's level, age, and goals. My strengths lie in pencil, acrylic, and oil painting, though I can also help with basic drawing techniques, color theory, composition, and various art projects.
I am currently studying Visual Arts in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, so I can help both students who want to learn as a hobby and students who need to improve their results in the art subject.
In my classes we can work on:
- Acrylic and oil paint
- Basic drawing techniques
- Color theory and mixing
- Composition and proportion
- Development of ideas and creativity
- Help with homework and school projects
- Support to improve grades
- Crafts and creative projects
I like to tailor my classes to each individual and make them dynamic, practical, and engaging. Instead of just teaching theory, I prepare each class in advance, gathering all the necessary materials and resources. My goal is for every student to develop their creativity, improve their technique, and, above all, enjoy the artistic process.
The classes are specially designed for children, teenagers and beginners, although I can also adapt to students with more experience.

This class is designed for IBDP Visual Arts students who need structured guidance in developing their portfolio. Students will learn how to develop their artistic ideas, explore different media and techniques, document their creative process, and strengthen their conceptual thinking. The class provides personalised feedback and guidance to help students develop a strong and meaningful Visual Arts portfolio in line with IB expectations.

With extensive experience in IBDP Visual Arts and IGCSE Art & Design, I provide individual support based on each student’s level, interests, and artistic goals.

I am a professional visual artist with more than 30 years of experience exhibiting, researching and developing my practice internationally. I offer individual art lessons and mentoring for students of different ages and levels, from beginners who want to learn how to draw or paint to more experienced artists who want to develop a stronger and more personal body of work.

Lessons are adapted to each student. We can work with observational drawing, painting, composition, materials and technique, but also with ideas, references, art history, sketchbooks and the development of your own visual language.

I also work with students preparing portfolios and applications for art schools, universities, residencies and other professional opportunities, as well as artists who feel stuck and want to rethink or strengthen their creative practice.

My aim is not simply to teach you how to reproduce an image, but to help you understand what you want to make, why you want to make it, and how to develop the skills and references necessary to make it your own.

Classes are available in English or Portuguese and are shaped around your interests, experience and goals.

WIth the passion for art and architecture, and both drawing and painting, I would be happy to share the knowledge I have about art (and architecture!). Lessons will be adjusted depending on your level and preferred direction. You can expect to learn from the basics of how to hold a pencil correctly - to training in portraits. I work in variety of methods and materials (can be seen on my website), therefore my knowledge is diverse. We can either explore which materials suit you more, or directly tackle the ones that have your preference.

Other than the art school that I completed in Moldova, I also have experience teaching architecture drawing at TU Eindhoven. I have extensive knowledge of perspective and construction of shadows, and tips and tricks that can make your architecture drawings stand out.

My aim is not only to teach you techniques but also to help you discover your strengths, develop your visual language, and find an approach to art that feels personal to you.

This ARTCLUB can teach you how to draw correct and you enjoying the process is my goal, to teach and share how to draw nice sketches and drawings. You can also ask me in class if you need to learn to speak languages like Danish, Ukrainian, Russian, and if you want to learn English, I can help too. For example, like how we say 'pencil' in Ukrainian, but the main thing is that you can talk to me freely without hesitation. I will always answer questions about the lesson, so don’t be afraid and just chat
