My courses are designed for adults, students, and young people alike who wish to develop their artistic practice and explore their ideas further. I would like to guide you in building your own artistic world by combining various techniques and knowledge, according to your needs. In my courses, I also offer instruction on how to talk about your own work and find the right words. My teaching approach is tailored to each student, whether they are in preparatory classes for art schools, studying art, are self-taught, or are a professional artist.
- Drawing
- Composition
- Photography
- Image processing (Photoshop)
- The history of art
- Conceptualization

I taught drawing and composition for several years at Gobelins, the School of Image (2020-2024), and was a mentor twice as part of the VU' Agency Mentorship Program (supporting a young photographer for a year - 2023 and 2025). I have also worked extensively with diverse audiences, from children to the elderly, notably in workshops conducted at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie (MEP).

I enjoyed my years teaching at the university level and working with groups, but today I prefer a more personal, targeted approach to my students through private lessons. I am caring, patient, demanding, and a great listener to the people I work with, regardless of their level or age.

Whether you want to pursue visual arts professionally or not, it is one of the best ways to express yourself creatively.

This course will teach you how to develop drawing and painting skills in various art mediums, along with references from art history so that you can freely express yourself.
The structure of the lessons can be modified according to the needs of the student, and can also included visits to museums and contemporary art exhibitions. With younger children or amateurs, we can delve into crafts, collage, sketching and doodling and for people with some experience we can think about more advanced painting compositions, even installation and basics of stop-motion animation.

However, it is not at all necessary to have a lot of knowledge of the visual arts, only curiosity and interest.

(The price remains the same for upto three students during a session)

We will address together both character issues (anatomy, stylization, etc.) and settings (perspective, landscapes, etc.).

I put the desire of my students at the heart of the learning process.

Having worked in an art studio where I gave lessons to children (from 6 to 13 years old), young teenagers (from 14 to 16 years old) and adults (all ages), I now offer my services to accompany your child or teenager in learning different drawing and painting techniques, and to give them the necessary tools to progress and practice independently.
Having studied art history, I like to propose themes by introducing an artistic movement or an artist within their context before tackling a practical subject. If the student prefers to focus solely on learning drawing or painting techniques, that is perfectly possible, although an artistic dimension will still be present, if only through images of artworks, which I consider important for illustrating the techniques.
I offer lessons with a minimum duration of one hour and, in order to promote effective progress, I favour working on the same theme and the same technique over several sessions, while adapting to the expectations and pace of the student.
