Comic book author, graduate of the fine arts school in Paris in the workshop of Joann Sfar gives lessons in drawing, comics.

From 37 £ /h

The course structure always follows the student's wishes and objectives. Initially, we review past work, then we choose the direction to follow.

I approach drawing through two major axes: technique and poetry.
In technique we will learn about volumes, light, values, perspective and morphology.
The poetic aspect relates to the means used, the composition, and the colors.
The question is whether the technique is necessary to produce a good image.

Comics, unlike drawing, are meant to be understood and read by others. We will first learn to pay attention to panel layout in order to make the action flow smoothly and be easily understood.

About Me

Hello,

I am Joseph,
Artist and designer, graduated from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2023 in the studio of Joann Sfar.
I mainly practice drawing and comics. I have been drawing for leisure since I was a child, then I studied it and I hope to make it my profession. My references are found as much in classical painting as in manga. I seek the greatest possible freedom on a sheet of paper and I hope to be able to transmit this vision of drawing to you.

Drawing course - Observation and imagination

A graduate of Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2017, I specialize in observational drawing in public space.
My artistic practice brings sketching into dialogue with woodcut, painting and more recently writing.

At the same time, I pursue educational work with many audiences: private child/adult lessons, schools, technical and creativity initiation courses.
Whether it's weekly lessons or more specific sessions, I adapt to the rhythm, level and sensitivity of my students. The exercises are adapted to the creative singularity of each.

For beginners, the important thing is to gain confidence in your ability to observe, tell, let go. I attach great importance to the fact that the practice of drawing remains above all a pleasure!

Paris/near suburbs, lesson from 1h to 2h according to requests.

Hello to all budding artists,

I am a patient and caring teacher, who strives to create a pleasant and supportive working atmosphere for my students. My lessons are tailored to each student's individual needs and interests, and I use effective teaching techniques to ensure that my students progress at their own pace.

A nine-hour online workshop to explore your creativity and experiment with artistic techniques

This workshop, suitable for all audiences, is designed to experiment with and explore artistic techniques. The results will surprise you.

Any technique is an excuse to play, to break the rules, and to experiment. We should feel free to try without worrying about the final outcome. As an advocate of the creative process, I believe that the goal is not the result itself but rather an element we sometimes discover midway.

Unleash your unconscious and flow throughout the process, which, on this occasion, is more important than the final result. We will enjoy the journey because it is the only thing that truly matters.

In this workshop, we will express ourselves freely, release blockages, overcome fear to enhance our creative potential. We will also learn to break and discard the work we've done. And, of course, to have fun.

I am an Architect who graduated in 2016 and a Programmist engaged in empowerment workshops for young people not only during extracurricular activities in primary school but also outside the school setting for young people aged 13 to 18. My activity essentially develops around manual practices, graphic expression and the co-construction of our environment.

I would be delighted to be able to provide support in your applications to architecture schools, develop your architectural culture, give you the necessary knowledge of drawing and DTP software (photoshop, illustrator, vectorworks, autocad...etc) .

I propose universal plastic art program which contains possibilities to learn drawing, sketching, painting and small scale sculpting. Through improving these skills and knowledge, I also teach creative thinking, observation, awareness and deep understanding what's around us and what's inside. Examples from art history and the art world are discussed.

The program is flexible and suitable for anyone of any level who wants to learn. The needs and character of each student will also be taken into attention. Speaking from experience, the learning process can grow into creatively stimulating challenges and ambitious projects, which I am also ready to help the student to implement.

I offer to help and guide you in your 2D Animation or Motion Design projects; I can also help you master software such as Animate, After Effects, Photoshop, ToonBoom, or even on tablets with Procreate and Procreate Dreams or Alight Motion!
I am also able to encourage you to progress in your relationship with drawing, or even introduce your children to artistic awakening!

PS: Regarding the classes, it is also possible to arrange a meeting point halfway, in order to work in a cafe or other coworking space!

Accessible to all levels and all ages.
Whether you are a beginner exploring the world or an accomplished artist looking for advice to develop a project, this course will meet your expectations.

Everyone can tell a story or draw. This course adapts to your style (manga, Franco-Belgian, comics, science fiction), covering each stage of production, from scriptwriting to the final layout.
The courses ensure that participants have autonomy and an understanding of the profession and its possibilities.

PROPOSED CONTENT

Writing, anatomy, perspective, movement, staging, storyboarding, panel rhythm, inking, watercolor, Photoshop, lettering and layout.

Having worked in an art studio where I gave lessons to children (from 6 to 13 years old), young teenagers (from 14 to 16 years old) and adults (all ages), I now offer my services to accompany your child or teenager in learning different drawing and painting techniques, and to give them the necessary tools to progress and practice independently.
Having studied art history, I like to propose themes by introducing an artistic movement or an artist within their context before tackling a practical subject. If the student prefers to focus solely on learning drawing or painting techniques, that is perfectly possible, although an artistic dimension will still be present, if only through images of artworks, which I consider important for illustrating the techniques.
I offer lessons with a minimum duration of one hour and, in order to promote effective progress, I favour working on the same theme and the same technique over several sessions, while adapting to the expectations and pace of the student.
