Everyone can draw great pictures! I have been studying painting for ten years, from impressionism to Chinese traditional painting, to abstract art. I will help you to paint whatever you are interested in and want to make.
I am a professional artist and an art educator. I can teach you oil painting, acrylic painting, pencil/marker drawing, ink painting, calligraphy, etc, whatever you would like to learn. My class is very encouraging and inspiring because I believe everyone has the potential to be a good artist and I only provide another way of thinking.
Moreover, I have so much experience teaching kids and teenagers, they turned out to love drawing and feel confident about making art. No need to mention I can relate to adults whose eager and the challenges of learning new things. Don't worry, once you ride it, you get it! ;)

My name is Paco, I am a 22-years-old Spanish artist and dancer. I did a Fine Arts degree in Spain and now I keep making visual arts exhibitions and developing my researches in art and dancing.

Drawing is a tool that allows us to understand our surroundings and ourselves.
Through this course, you can learn how to draw from the very fundamental bases of this language. We will focus on proportions, perspectives, shapes, light and shades, and the understanding of different drawing materials.
Furthermore, we can explorer the experimental part of this world while we learn about contemporary artists, trying to understand the huge diversity of art languages and drawing styles during the last centuries.
Drawing as a way to express yourself, of giving shape to your feelings, of joy and play, of poetry. Drawing as a way of finding your style and personal language.
These private lessons are perfect to develop the sensibility and creative world of the youngest as well as to encourage the adults to create, to explore their childish side and to learn a very powerful language that can reach to say things that cannot be shaped by words.
This course is perfectly adaptable to the necessities of each student. Although you are experienced in drawing or a beginner, we will make a very personal process of formation.

I offer drawing, painting, and 3-dimensional sculpture courses and opportunities for students to explore the different mediums and create an impressive portfolio. I will prepare students to develop their interest in three-dimensional work. Students will be creating work with Cray and 3-dimensional materials. The course will begin withdrawing lessons, model building, and work in clay. Later students will experience mixed media sculptures with other materials. I can help students who wish to create an impressive portfolio for their university preparation. I have fine arts degree from Chicago and works as a studio artist and art teacher.

Are you willing to learn drawing or painting? Do you wish to improve what you already know?

I graduated from an art school where I learned all the important classical techniques of drawing, painting and sculpture. I would like to pass on the knowledge I have acquired through my studies and practice and give those who so wish the opportunity to go on a journey into the world of art and improve their language and technique.
The lessons are open to all levels.

The techniques covered range from drawing with pencil, charcoal and pastel chalk to all painting styles (watercolor, oil, acrylic, tempera). You have the opportunity to experiment on different types of paper (with different weights and colors) and canvases.

The topics change from lesson to lesson and can range from the human body to the landscape to the wildlife, depending on your preferences and desires.

Particular attention is paid to the method so that the finished work is clean, pleasant and as expressive as possible.

why draw, how to draw?

- in a world where everyone can take photos with their cell phone, why still draw?

- Is drawing an attempt to capture reality or is it a tool to comment on it?

The lessons are an invitation for beginners and advanced learners to try out various practical techniques and discuss the results.

When it comes to drawing, one of the biggest obstacles is letting go of self-criticism and just starting and working. We will deal precisely with this difficulty. We will learn through extraordinary exercises how to simply train the hands and at the same time suspend the critical mind.

Later, we will focus on observing the drawings and try to understand the mystery of what works and what doesn't.

Lessons are offered for both beginners and advanced learners. Let me know what you would like to improve about your work. what do you find interesting?
all ages are welcome!

My name is Oded, I am originally from Israel. After 6 years of studying, I completed my studies at the UdK in 2019. In recent years I have participated in several exhibitions and residency programs.
My main artworks are films, watercolor paintings and comics.
Teaching is a very important task for me.

For two decades, painting has been my steadfast anchor, guiding me through life's ups and downs, and in many ways - saved me in this life.
I feel that the act of painting is a form of meditation - and in my hardest days - Painting has become a tranquil oasis of calm.

In the past 10 years specifically, I've immersed myself in daily painting with oils, and mastering the Alla prima technique (wet on wet technic = one painting in one sitting), however, I have also dabbled in layering and glazing for a while.

I firmly believe that with the right time, space, and personalized instruction, anyone can paint. Whilst oil painting has being rumoured to be very messy (And it can be extremely messy) I have built a clean painting structure, as I am also living with a cleaning freak (the love of my life), a 3 year old child and a boxer dog.

That's why I offer 1-1 tutoring sessions at my place, in a patient, friendly, and instructive environment filled with good vibes and good music (probably the most important ingredient!).

If you enjoy bright colors and want to learn to paint abstractly with liquid watercolor paint, this workshop is for you.
At the beginning of the painting session we will become familiar with the wet-on-wet technique. We will learn to let the chance of the colors running into each other guide us. In this workshop you will learn to find the balance between chance and gentle brush control. After a short drying time, the fine lines are then applied with fine brushes.
Watercolor painting as a meditation technique:
Simply starting and working with your hands is a self-healing process, something I rediscovered especially during the Corona crisis. Watercolor painting is relaxing and has a meditative effect, it slows you down and when you wake up from the trance you have created a finished watercolor.
What you get:
• All necessary materials such as watercolor paper, paints and brushes • Individual support and templates for inspiration
• Everything that is created in the workshop
• Hopefully a new passion
What else you should know:
• If you have your own liquid watercolors and paper or brushes, please bring them with you • The workshop can be held in English or German

Drawing is a natural skill for everyone; but if you are looking for a more artistic approach for this practice, you can count on me! During my classes you will learn techniques to upgrade your level of drawing to have a more naturalistic way of representation. I will teach you how to observe shapes and tones, to loose your hand, to improve the quality of your strokes, and I will focus in anatomical drawing by teaching you the easiest way to get the right proportions and being able to draw a person with or without a model. But you can also bring your own interests! We will use pencil, pen, and charcoal.
I currently study a Master in New Media Design in Berlin, and I studied my bachelor in the most important school of arts in Mexico. I’ve been drawing professionally for 16 years, and have experience in art teaching for children and adults in several workshops, as well as working independently for painting and mural painting commissions.

I work as an illustrator and graphic designer in Berlin and teach children of all ages the joy of drawing and painting through private lessons and group workshops.

During my time as an artist in residence, I also led art workshops for local children to support and develop their creativity. Currently, I teach comic classes at a primary school in Berlin.

I am passionate about encouraging children's imagination and self-expression. I especially enjoy working with children who feel unsure about their drawing skills, helping them discover the joy of creating art and build confidence in their own abilities.

Art is a form of self-expression, and most importantly, it should be fun. I offer a safe and supportive space where children can express themselves and grow creatively at their own pace!
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

It is very important to me to strengthen children's imagination and expressiveness. I also want to convey the joy of creative expression to children who are insecure or believe they cannot paint well, and support them in developing confidence in their own abilities.

Painting is a form of self-expression, and above all, it's about having fun. I offer a safe space where children can freely develop their talents, and I attentively guide them on their creative learning journey.
