Atelier Lessons For Youth And Adults

There is no such thing as level 1 and level 100 in art, so all students will work on their individual projects and receive individual instructions based on their skills, interests and goals. 

Choose your medium, set up your own goals or just let me know what would you like to learn from me and I’ll help you learn what’s needed to accomplish a project. I have many projects to choose from in the studio to obtain the skills you’re looking for.

With me, students learn any medium from these:

• oil
• acrylic
• watercolour
• pastel
• mixed-media
• gouache
• drawing

I’m open to all levels, from beginners to advanced, to explore one or more of the following techniques:

• realism
• abstract
• conceptual
• illustration and animation drawing
• pop art
• collage
• impressionism
• others

 All students work on their individual projects (regardless of what the others are working on), at their own pace. No competition, no rush, and no frustration – just learning techniques, finding your special style and discovering your artistic potential.

My goal is to help you find your own style and explore your artistic potential. I don’t want you to be someone else.

Before the lessons, we can discuss your goals and interests and make a plan to achieve them. I suggest sticking to one medium to complete at least three works.

We’ll choose a project together, I’ll describe the stages needed to complete the project and we’ll start working. Depending on the project, I may show the steps that students should repeat after me, or may just describe them and show different options for how they can be done.

Regardless of the age, subject and medium chosen, I’m teaching composition, colour use, value practice, perspective rules and piratical techniques related to the medium chosen.

All people are different and will work with different paces and in different styles. You will find yours.

Examples of what we do can be found in the Works by Youth And Adults section.

Missed lessons can be rescheduled or transferred to the next payment period with reasonable notice (24 hours for non-emergency reasons).
