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.

This course is designed to help you achieve professional-level results directly in-camera, eliminating reliance on post-production. Drawing on my 11 years of international experience (8 years in Colombia and 3 years leading and training teams of photographers in the United States), I have developed a practical method focused on mastering the art of photography.

What will you learn?

Solid foundation for beginners: If you're starting out, I'll give you the technical and conceptual tools to build a profitable career in the product world, teaching you to produce with professional rigor from day one.

Advanced techniques for photographers: If you already have experience, we will raise your level by mastering the physics of light, total control of reflections on complex surfaces (glass, metal, liquids) and the use of precision optics to avoid distortions.

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.

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.
