Drawing lessons at home - Illustration, Watercolor, Acrylic Painting...

From 77 C$ /h

What if art were more than just a hobby? A way to breathe, to slow down, to reconnect with oneself. A pencil in hand, and the world calms down.

With a degree in art and communication, I am passionate about drawing and offer personalized lessons in your home, in a relaxed yet stimulating atmosphere. Drawing, watercolor, painting: I love sharing these techniques that combine expressiveness and simplicity, allowing everyone to express themselves freely.

Whether you're a child, teenager, or adult, whether you've never held a paintbrush or are looking to refine your style, there's a place for you. Together, we'll progress according to your desires: laying the foundations (proportions, composition, color theory), trying your hand at sketching, illustration, or watercolor, or cultivating your own visual language. Each session is like a blank page, ready to receive your first mark.

The courses can be conducted in French or English.

No prior talent is necessary, only the desire to get started. And you don't need elaborate equipment: a simple pencil is all you need. We progress at your own pace, at home or elsewhere, whichever suits you best.

What touches me most? Seeing my students leave with brighter eyes, proud of what they have created on paper. Because, ultimately, drawing is like breathing: a first breath, and everything begins.

You can start from scratch!
You don’t need to know anything about drawing, painting or printmaking. We can build up together your own way of observation and if you are self-taught then bring over your artworks and we will talk about how to develope your style or discover new paths of your own expression.
Each session will focus on different theme, providing wide range of techniques to raise confidence through various drawing approaches including still life, life drawing and portraiture.
