Painting and Drawing lessons for all levels (Children and Adults)

From 30.34 £ /h

Art classes for any level and any personal goals. Whether you are applying for art school and need help with your portfolio; or you want your child to learn some art techniques in one-on-one lessons; or even if you simply enjoy painting and drawing as a hobby, contact me! We will discuss your goals together and make a plan for our classes. I will teach you various painting and drawing techniques, basics of anatomy and perspective. We'll go on plain airs and do some real-life sketching. I can as well give you some critic and advice on your artwork in general, help with building a portfolio or an artist statement.
I have experience of working with children as young as 3 years old, as well as teaching in adult groups and providing personal tutoring for teenagers. My own background is mostly academic traditional art, and I do not teach any digital techniques, but as I do work with animation myself I can give some advice in that area too.

About Me

I was born and raised in St.Petersburg, Russia, where I received a very traditional art education. After moving to Finland in 2020, I finished my degree here and spent seven months in France, where I studied Fine Art as well. I work as a freelance artist and book illustrator, and I have been tutoring and teaching art in various forms since I was in high school. I am extremely passionate about art and I love working with people. I have experience of teaching a figure drawing class for adults for a full semester in my university. I have also been holding classes for children for a few years, teaching both individually and in groups. I have been teaching in English and Russian before, while my Swedish is not perfect and if a student doesn't have any knowledge of English at all we would have too see if we'll be able to work together.

Whether you are a complete beginner or have already studied art, this class is for you. Tuition is designed specifically for you. During the first lesson we will establish goals, discuss your preferred learning style, and tailor the program to meet your needs, whether it is getting better at expressing yourself through art or preparing for architectural entrance exams in Finnish universities. I will teach you how to paint using traditional mediums, as well as draw, sketch, and come up with ideas when you need to, not just when you feel inspired.
