Painting, Sketching & Craft Courses for Kids and Adults by Faye.

From 69.98 C$ /h

Art Courses are a playful, hands-on after-school art workshop for children ages 7 and up (and curious teens or adults too!), where creativity, self-expression, and teamwork come together. In small groups, participants explore painting, drawing, sketching, and crafting with a wide variety of materials—like acrylics, pastels, pencils, collage, and mixed media. Each session offers something new: from experimenting with techniques to working together on imaginative projects that encourage collaboration and confidence. The workshops are based in Rotterdam, but I’m also available to travel to Den Haag and Delft, depending on interest. Classes can be held at you own personal space, making it flexible and accessible. For those who want to continue their creative journey, there’s an optional subscription that includes regular sessions and access to special themed workshops. No experience needed—just a love for making and exploring!

Private art lessons for all levels provided by a professional graphic designer, print maker and visual artist!

I provide teaching in traditional sketching, drawing, painting as well as applied arts and graphic arts like printing or illustration.

Through a custom-made program, learn how to draw and paint, create illustrations and artworks or learn how to improve your creative and artistic process!
With me, you or your children will learn how to find your own style and tools. Get to experiment with different styles – be it realistic, figurative or abstract! – and OR choose to focus on subject and method.

Among the techniques and skills you will be able to learn, there is :
painting (acrylic, oil), watercolours, sketching, drawing (pencil, brushes), illustration, colour theory, collage, mixed medias, linocut engraving and printmaking, book making, clay, stencil, lettering...

Traditional drawing and painting include knowledges such as : light, shape, line, colour theory, space, composition. You will get to learn through copy of master works and real life observation (still life, landscape, portrait).

A programme of various activities for children and teens is available, focusing on the development of their curiosity, creativity and interpersonal skills. I will work with them on topics that they are interested in while developing a sympathetic, ethical and open-minded approach. They will learn how to see the world differently by using different techniques, materials, recycling elements or going from 2D to 3D works by using sculpture or installation.

For advanced students, I also provide counseling on creative thinking, artistic process and techniques. You will learn how and where to find inspiration, create better artworks through process, art history, composition, rythm, colour theory or experiment.

All programs will be custom-made, adapting techniques, level and themes to the pupil(s). Children can be taught in small groups.

Drawing is a combination of freeing your mind, testing you determination and finding your own way of expression. Most importantly everybody can learn it. Of course you need to start from the basics if you want to understand it so this is a course in which I will teach you about composition, light, depth, colors and sketching and continue on with what you want to learn more about it.

I've been participating in competitions and doing art work since I was 8; I would love for the opportunity to help somebody develop their own unique style. I will start with a few basic sketching and painting skills, but beyond that we will be focusing on exploring different medias to make arts until the student finds his or her style

This is a class for anyone who loves to create and appreciates the beauty and hidden wonders of life. With activities ranging from painting, drawing, collaging, and even making sculptures out of found objects, learn and/or improve your art skills by pushing yourself a little, or a lot, with this class. If you are an absolute beginner, or a professional seeking to diversify your practice, these lessons will undoubtedly challenge you as an artist. You have the freedom to explore whichever field of art you want, just let me know, and I will do as much as I can to guide and teach you the necessary skills with fun and educational exercises. I have more than 5 years of teaching experience, and am a former art teacher for children between the ages of 3 and 15. I have prior art tutoring experience, so you (or your child) will most definitely be in good hands!

This class is an opportunity to begin to build an art portfolio, or to improve your portfolio and/or applications for art schools/universities.

My goal is to help students who are interested in improving artistic skills and/or to mentor students who are looking to get into an art program.

Depending on your needs, you'll learn a variety of techniques and skills from drawing basics, paintings, photography, color theory to portfolio building/strengthening, developing titles, captions and descriptions for your work, reviewing different applications for art universities or other opportunities, and more.

All levels of art experience are welcome!

Your children will learn how to sketch and paint whatever they want in this program. Their inventiveness, as well as their understanding of colors and the ability to draw beautiful lines and details, will improve. They will Bring out their talent.

Contrary to popular belief, realistic drawing will never be outdated, not because of some strange fixation in academic art, but because of its usefulness in a huge variety of tasks that are or are not related to the art field. To me, more than anything, realistic drawing offers an explanation of the world that is somehow shoothing and fulfilling.

A Romanian born artist, who finished architecture high school and now studies Spatial Design at the Willem de Kooning Art Academy in Rotterdam. I offer these art classes for anyone who is passionate about art and learning the techniques of creating art. In the classes you will learn how to draw composition of objects, painting, perspective, interior design, but also multimedia.

My classes are suitable for anyone who has interest in learning drawing or just simply practice it and get better in it.
I obtained my bachelor degree from Royal Academy of Art in The Hague (2023) and before I studied graphic design and printmaking.

First lesson, I ask you about what would you like to achieve with our classes and plan our lessons accordingly. Whether you would like to learn anatomy, figurative drawing, shading, drawing portraits or you would like to develop your personal handwriting or you would just simply like to practice drawing with professional guidance, I always tailor lessons according to your needs and possibilities.
I believe there is nothing like 'having a talent for drawing', in fact - Drawing is 90% only about observation! anybody can draw and has unique view on things! I am looking forward to hear from you :)

You will learn techniques for acrylic painting, color blending, basic of drawing mandalas. For children from age 4 to 6 it will be more introduction to colors and being familiar with different painting and drawing tools. It is also possible for older children for having this introduction.

Hello! I am an artist who graduated from the Royal College of Art with a Master's degree in painting program. I also finished my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2020. This painting and drawing class is designed for individuals at any skill level who wish to improve their painting and drawing techniques and expand their knowledge. Whether you're a beginner looking to learn the fundamentals or an experienced artist seeking to refine your skills, this class offers guidance and support to help you develop your artistic abilities.
You will learn a variety of painting and drawing techniques to time in a relaxed and interesting learning experience.
If you are an absolute beginner, don't worry, my class will start with mixing beautiful colors and interesting drawing collages.

Are you looking to improve your drawing skills or you don't even know where to start but you dream of an art career? Or perhaps you have entrance exams coming up for art school or architecture studies and you want to ensure you will pass?
This is an individual course design depending on your request and your starting level. Each course includes lessons filled with instruction information, practice time and homework assignment. You can begin with Level 1 and continue further or choose to start on a specific level.

Level 1 - This course is an absolute beginner level. You can hold a pencil and a brush but the starting is so stressful and confusing. You're scared of making a mistake, you don't know where to begin, you're getting lost when it comes to composition or shading whenever you start to draw. I GOT YOU! Those are very common feelings when you start to draw and it can be discouraging, give you a feeling of being stuck or just very dissatisfied with your art.

In this course I will guide you through basic traditional art techniques such as pencil sketching, pen and ink drawing, watercolor, and acrylic painting. We will be studying composition, forms, shapes, structure and texture of different objects such as fabric, furniture, animal fur, plants etc. I’ll show you how to achieve depth in your shading, how to understand light, and the effect of fragility of plants or hardship and reflection of metal. I’ll teach you observation, things to look for in the drawing, but most of all I'll give you tools for future independent learning that will save you tons of time while figuring on your own!
The key to success is your motivation and time you will dedicate to your homework practice.

Level 2 - This course is directed towards people who have some basic understanding of traditional art media techniques such as pencil sketching, pen and ink drawing, watercolor, and acrylic painting. Your art is currently your hobby, but you would like to change it into a career? Know more about art as a business model, get insights into career tips and opportunities. Or do you want to improve your sketching skills, learn to digitise your work, create digital illustrations in Procreate, or combine it all in your own unique way?

Level 3 - Advanced. It will focus on your specific desire as an artist and adjust to your skills and technique preferences. During the first introduction skills, I’ll provide some exercises to see how you work and together we will find the way we can work and improve.

🎨 Not just a workshop — a creative journey.
Each week we explore a new topic or technique — from line drawing, sketch to painting. Get to know materials: pencil, charcoal, acrylic, oil painting, Chinese ink. Dive in to various styles: Impressionism, Fauvism and Surrealism — just like in real art school.
Every session is beginner-friendly and independent, so you can join anytime. It’s perfect if you want more than a one-time experience — and want to grow real skills over time.

Most short workshops focus on just one thing — plant, portrait or landscape. But real artists learn to see and understand the principles. So that you can find your own way to create.
In my workshops, we go deeper and learn the grammer of visual art: exploring value, color theory, composition and creativity through many styles.
Think of it like an art school evening — but cozy, flexible, and beginner-friendly.

👩‍🎨My teaching method:
I’m an art teacher with my own atelier, and I also teach at a local art centre. I run creative workshops for both kids and adults from all kinds of backgrounds. I love designing classes that mix hands-on technique with Art history.
I’m really enjoying guiding people discover their own expression in art.
My approach tend to be student-focused which also shaped by my international background. For me, it is important creating a welcoming space where people feel free and inspired to explore. Whether someone’s picking up a brush for the first time or coming back to art after years, I’m there to encourage them.

Let’s spend this summer growing your skills, one brushstroke at a time. See you at the studio!

I teach digital painting with a focus on clarity, structure, and outcome. You’ll learn how to control digital brushes, build convincing lighting, use color intentionally, and create textures that add depth. We’ll move from the basics of composition to the challenges of designing characters, surreal environments, and expressive scenes.

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.
