    Drawing & Sketching From basics to advanced, Watercolor Painting: Techniques from washes and gradients to textures and layering
    Hi, I’m Raji — an artist at heart and a passionate artist who believes that true expression begins with our own two hands. I am an architect and studying my master's in landscape architecture at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. From the time I could hold a pencil, art has been my language — a way to observe the world, to feel, and to create. I’ve always felt that painting on paper, with brushes and watercolors, holds a kind of magic that screens simply can’t replicate. It’s raw, mindful, and deeply human. I specialize in watercolor techniques, sketching, composition, and creative exploration — helping students of all ages unlock their imagination and connect with their inner artist.

    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.

    Painting Tutor: Discover and develop your artistic language
    I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London. Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don't always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you! Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs. The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language. (Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.) Have questions? Don't hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

    Art - painting, drawing, sketching, mixed media, simple clay pieces.
    With a BA in Theatre Design and over a decade of experience in primary education, specialising in EYFS, KS1, and KS2, I bring both expertise and passion to every lesson. As an artist who has painted murals and had work featured in galleries, I understand the profound impact creativity can have on learning and personal expression. I offer tailored support in art, drawing, sketching, and painting, ensuring that each lesson is engaging, inspiring, and suited to individual needs. Whether helping to refine artistic techniques, develop creative confidence, or simply enjoy the process of making art, I create lessons that nurture both skill and imagination. My goal is to encourage a lifelong appreciation for the visual arts by making learning fun, accessible, and fulfilling. After each session, I provide carefully selected challenges to reinforce progress, along with periodic reports upon request to keep learning transparent and rewarding. Let’s turn creativity into an adventure!
