Visual and Media Art / Plastic Art / Conceptual / classical / website / portfolio

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 32 C$ /h

As a whole, the courses include a vast repertory which touches the drawing, painting, design and lexicon of colors (chromatic circle; monochrome; monochrome; tutorial of the visual arts language, etc), linocut, cyanotype, photography, basic photoshop course, performance tutoring, etc. Among others, basic research techniques to design supports for the chosen mediums such as how to stretch your own canvas on a false frame or even the design of homemade paper and more.

A conceptual approach is very present, but mixes with the classic course, because you obviously have to start somewhere. These art courses / workshops are more anchored in the technique, but if there is a desire to deepen your knowledge in terms of art history, among others, to better understand the trends of art or artists who have influenced a technique for example there will always be opportunities on demand. For the more advanced, it will also be possible to do tutoring on how to proceed with a research method for the evolution of his art, place of dissemination, creation of a website for their portfolio and how to design it.

* It will be possible, in the eventuality, to go outside during photography, drawing or other related courses. Depending on the development or the desire of the apprentice, we could go to a museum, gallery or other activity that will support the learning (provide an additional amount to cover the costs of the activity if necessary ).

See you above all and see you soon! :)

About Me

My name is Mélissa, I am a bachelor in Visual and Media Art and artist. I have exhibited at several galleries and worked in collaboration. Including Place-des-Arts. In addition, to have given several trainings in the past and worked in gallery. The art world is not unknown to me.
The development and evolution of the human has constantly been an appetite for my approach as an artist. But also created a feeling of sympathy to help others, to become the best of themselves. To become anyone that you want to be. This impetus for the teaching of art is not just for me to teach a field, but also that the students manage to interpret themselves and to put words on what they experience internally. Art is thus, here, a way to see between the lines - the big picture subtly speaking. So help to build or complete one’s skills.

I hope to be able to make a change and a bit of new energy!

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.

How to prepare for a media interview? What means should be used to fight his fear of the camera and improve his image? How to present yourself and your project in front of a camera?

How to present yourself and your project to the media?

Targeted content according to your project: Verbal and/or gestural communication; Seduction of the lens and/or microphone; Improvisation in front of a microphone and/or camera; Voice & gaze; One or two camera games; Chronic; Animation; Reporting; Live radio & TV; Interview; Narration; Speech in all its forms (...).

In short, several objectives:
◾ Confront your shyness in front of the microphone/camera.
◾ Understand his speech and diction.
◾ Tame the media environment (radio/tv).
◾ Become familiar with your image and voice.
◾ Manage your speaking time.

Through exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentations, time management), role plays, simulated interviews and familiarization with their image and voice, participants evolve at their own pace within a framework flexible teaching.

Please note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed gradually on the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Indeed, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, which, while taking care of its image, is based on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations ) reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech. How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression?

Knowing how to speak, act and interact in public is almost a necessity today: your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and impactful messages.

Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering confidence ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups ● overcoming shyness by assimilating 3 CRV axes (body-breathing-voice) ● better manage disagreement or conflict.

Mastered, the method allows:
• to improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's (verbal-corporal) ease, his public speaking skills and his sense of repartee and improvisation.
• to work on their ease, leadership, charisma, creativity and personal development through role-playing scenarios.
* to improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitches, intention, flow).
* convey your message through your image, while gaining improvisation skills and responsiveness.

Supplemented by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management), role plays, improvisations and simulations. With the key word: pronunciation, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee.

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 :)

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.

This course is aimed at photographers and visual creators who want to take their images beyond capture, developing a professional editing workflow and their own visual identity.

Throughout these sessions, we will learn to use the fundamental tools of Adobe Lightroom Classic to optimize photo quality, correct technical issues, and enhance their visual impact. We will work from organizing and selecting images to advanced digital development, retouching, and final adjustments for printing or digital publication.

In addition to the technical aspects, the course places special emphasis on developing a coherent and personal aesthetic. We will analyze visual references, the use of color, contrast, light, and atmosphere to understand how to transform a photograph into an image with its own character and language.

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 😊

As an artist, animator, and video game director, I have studied art and drawing since childhood. I offer courses tailored to your interests, skill level, and goals. Each session is custom-designed and prepared in advance, taking the form of a discovery workshop (focusing on a technique or concept) or practical exercises.

Different course formats are offered:
Group classes (approximately 5 people): ideal for sharing a creative moment around a common passion, with friends or in a small group;
Workshops for children: designed according to the age and pace of each child;
Individual lessons: to discover your artistic affinities and develop your practice through a personalized session;
Follow-up over several sessions: to progress in a technique, build a personal project or prepare an artistic portfolio (art school competitions, calls for projects, comic strip competitions, etc.).
Together we can explore:

Different techniques:
line drawing, gouache, oil painting, collage, ink, watercolor, stop-motion...

Different concepts:
colour, composition, portraiture, observational drawing, sketching from life (character and perspective), as well as the different ways of using artistic tools.

I also offer support with layout and digital drawing software, to discover or deepen digital practice.
