Do you want to learn the basics of drawing? Or are you already past that level? Do you want to draw on paper (with pencils) or on a screen? Do you want to learn the basics of 2D animation? All for a very reasonable price? We can do it!

Nice to meet you, I'm Daniel. I'm a (private) art teacher, I'm also a freelance artist and have been working as one for about 7 years. I'm looking for students in Utrecht, I have a teaching space available in my apartment (I can share my address when you contact me), but am also able to travel to your desired space within the city.
I can also teach via webcam, but I do recommend my in-person classes, seeing as they're more immersive and educational.

I unfortunately do not speak Dutch (yet), but am confident we can overcome any potential language barrier we come across.

I have the most experience in teaching teenagers and preteens, so I think we would definitely be a good match if you're a parent or guardian looking for a teacher for your child.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Would you like to be able to illustrate the worlds and stories you imagine?

Do you want to learn how to create characters for a video game, animation, children's story, comic or in any format? Or would you like to be able to draw your favorite characters?

If you have those concerns, I would love to help you.

I like to focus the classes in such a way that the current drawing level of the student is not what is important. The room for improvement will always evolve. I like to take my classes towards character design, towards general things like the psychology of color and shapes, since they are assimilable and highly useful concepts, independent of the level of drawing. For this reason, my classes are aimed at all ages and drawing levels.

I also try to focus them on the preferences and tastes of each student, showing them that everything they like, they like for a reason, that nothing is left to chance and that they can also understand how to make their drawings reflect what they want to convey. Even to create your portfolios or visual information for your own project or story.

I give private classes with students from different parts of the world, so many of my classes I have been able to do in both English and French.

I studied 2D animation in France, and thanks to this training, my work has been nourished by dynamism, storytelling, expressiveness, typical of this medium, as well as the sensitivity for color and shapes that I usually use to infuse a unique style both to my original designs as well as my fanarts.

In this course, you will learn how to create environments optimized for real-time in Unreal Engine 5 software. This efficient and powerful software has recently revolutionized the way we approach real-time graphics, not only for video games , but also VFX and virtual reality, because it offers tools and results of impressive quality, all in an easy-to-use interface.

In this course, you will be able to learn:
-How the game engine works
-How to prepare your assets for the engine
-How to import and place your assets
-How to create versatile materials
-How to use lights to highlight your scene
-How to set up a controllable character

Gradually, we will solidify these skills to learn how to render (images or videos) and compile a playable executable.

It is also possible to present your projects to me and to obtain personalized help on them.

During my training, I learned to develop video games with Unity software. In the years that followed, I perfected my knowledge by participating in game jams and presenting my games at independent developer events. The most important thing I learned was how to find the information you need online. So I will teach you how to develop it yourself, without my help.

During this course you will learn to:
- Code in C# in Unity
- Create 2D game levels
- Create 2D sprites in the game and design tilemaps
- Create a game interface (menu, life points, credits etc...)
- Export your games to Android, iOs and desktop and WebGl to play in the browser

I will also support you in your gameplay ideas

As a multidisciplinary artist, I believe that strong digital work is rooted in traditional mastery. This course combines the tactile logic of oil painting and watercolors with the power of Photoshop and digital design. We begin with the core fundamentals, anatomy, still life, and composition before transitioning those skills into the digital space.

You will learn to control digital brushes, build convincing lighting, and apply color with intention. We move beyond simple tutorials to tackle character design, surreal environments, and professional workflows. By the end of this course, you will have a body of polished, original work and a deep understanding of the design fundamentals that make an image successful in any medium.

By the end, you’ll produce portfolio-ready artworks and understand a professional workflow from sketch to finish. Each session combines hands-on exercises with discussion of artistic choices, so you strengthen both technical skill and creative judgment.

This course is for beginners and intermediate artists who want to go beyond tutorials and actually build a body of polished, original work.

I teach film acting classes with a focus on acting for film, TV, and commercials. In these classes, you will learn how to act naturally and believably in front of the camera, with attention to subtlety, timing, and awareness of framing and shots.

We work with text and scenes, with an emphasis on script interpretation, emotional build-up, and developing authentic acting for various formats. You will learn how to adapt your acting to commercials (clear and direct) and to film and series (layered and subtle).

The lessons are tailored to your playing level, so that you can develop at your own pace and work specifically on your strengths and areas for improvement.

Thanks to my experience as both an actor and a director, you will gain insight not only into acting but also into how a set works. I will guide you through the practical side of the field, such as auditions, self-tapes, collaborating with the director and camera, and what is expected of you on a shooting day.

The lessons are personal and aimed at developing self-confidence and camera acting skills. Suitable for both children and adults.

The lessons can be given in Dutch or English.

As an advanced art student, I would love to share my knowledge with you! We will start with a short introductory conversation where you share your expectations and goals with me, so that I can prepare lessons tailored to you. From complete beginners to slightly experienced, everyone is welcome! I believe that everyone can learn to draw, regardless of age.

The zero-click search era is no longer a future prediction—it is our current reality. With over 60% of web searches ending without a single click, traditional SEO strategies, keyword rankings, and legacy traffic funnels are rapidly becoming obsolete. In this AI-mediated world, discovery happens inside the "dark funnel" of large language models, where platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews act as the primary interface for your audience.

Your new digital currency is no longer the website click; it is the AI citation.

This masterclass is designed for executives, digital transformation leaders, and marketing strategists who want to pivot from obsolete traffic metrics to AI visibility. Participants will learn how generative engines parse, prioritize, and select the brands they trust. We will break down real data from millions of AI responses to uncover the exact profile of content these models prefer—focusing on open, structured knowledge hubs, informative comparative assets, and definitive educational content.

Move beyond fighting for vanishing organic traffic. Learn how to optimize your digital infrastructure for AI extraction, position your brand as an authoritative industry source, and build lasting consumer trust in a world where the machine is the interface.

For those who want to work in Game Development or improve their skills with Unreal Engine. The course is aimed at creating a single game mechanic and has a majority of lessons related to visual programming. Visual programming allows you to create game mechanics without programming knowledge.
Only basic understandment of how algorythms works and a high-end PC needed!

During the course, a student can choose lesson topics depends from current needs and in the end create full prototype of the game mechanic, that can be a base for the game or a strong portfolio asset.
