Painting in oils and beyond: Allow me to help you speak with the language of fine art
I have been involved in art for twenty years. I started out painting and selling both oils and watercolours. This developed to become, for a while, the main source of our household income. I managed to have solo exhibitions in Devon and Kent in the UK, as well as USA, Japan and, when I lived in France, several there too. When I returned from France, I started my academic studies in Fine Art Sheffield Hallam and Leeds Arts University where I receive a BA and MA in fine art.
I have great interest in the theory of fine art, such as composition, perspective, colour theory; the technology of fine art in understanding materials used and techniques applied. The theories of doing that allow successful expression. As well as purely fine art theory, this allows me to bring in psychology and other scientific thought, not to usurp fine are theory, but to bolster it both to confirm existing theories as well as opening out possible avenues for discovering new ones.
In painting I see myself as impressionist but recently have moved more towards realism to better communicate with internet viewer. This is because, when a piece is photographed, people cannot see complexity of the brush strokes used. I like to paint genre where complicated compositions and intellectual work is involved but I also do portraits, still life and landscape. In sculpture I use mostly archaic composition, as exemplified by Henry Moore and Aristide Maillol.
I really enjoy sharing my love of art with other. I believe everybody can express themselves through art (and probably should) and I love being a catalyst to make that happen. I do not use restrictive instruction where I tell students what they must do, but help them develop themselves - help them to discover their own way while sharing helpful insights from my own practice and wide knowledge of fine art practice and theory.

About Me
I am a highly driven person who can achieve goal in multiple circumstances and industries. Since coming to the UK, I have embarked on a new venture into academic studies with a view to mirroring my previous successes in that area. As a part of this, I received a first-class honours and master’s in fine art. My academic studies have been carried out to enable me to achieve my new goal working with people to allow them to express themselves with fine art. I take great delight and pride in mentoring people around seeing it as something a need to do almost as a part of my own practice.Throughout of practice, I have used representational painting and drawing (even my abstract pieces are underpinned by a representational approach – in some way, is that not always the case?) and have been exhibited a number of times as I developed, from exhibitions in Devon and Kent where I showed both oils (generally painterly pieces) and, by contrast, Japanese inspired watercolours to an exhibition in Japan where I showed Japanese watercolour inspired oils as well as exhibitions when I lived in France that reflected the colours rather than the actuality of the country. I have developed towards researching the boarders between different disciplines, merging fine art with general art and theoretical bases that underpin all of these. In my MA thesis I looked at painting as sculpture and sculpture as painting. I researched fine art theorists such as Fontana, Vladimir Tatlin, Jean Dubuffet, Jean Tangley, Kurt Schwitters, Lev Nusberg, Eric Bulatov, Timur Novikov, Irina Nakhova, Greenberg et al. The goal was to break down the borders of practices in order to build a practice that was able to use any practice in a harmonious way; to “dekonstuct” theories to allow a theory to emerge. This research has given me some tools that will help me in my future work, specifically, although I still make representational pieces, these are not confined to the flat painting; I have brought into my pieces sculptural and theatrical aspects as well as having done work to include temporal practices – I have moved, that is, to making installations that allow the non-pictorial to impinge and unite with the pictorial in an effort to the transgress, and yet keep, all modes of expression used.

MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.
I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.
I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.
In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.
You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.
Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Realistic drawing, academic drawing, figurative drawing
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.

Vocal technique for modern singing enthusiasts
Vocal technique is a fundamental pillar in the instrumental performance of the voice, since with it we are able to generate a cleaner sound in a HEALTHY way. Therefore; in this class the objective will be to learn to sing without much effort to avoid injuries to our instrument. We will do it through exercises adapted to the virtues and deficiencies of each student, and then we will work on repertoire according to the difficulty, taste and/or objective of each one. In this class you will also improve rhythm, tuning, dynamics and musicality.
