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.

Discover painting: Explore color, express yourself freely and find your style with a passionate young painter (lessons
These courses are aimed at amateurs who are curious to discover or deepen their knowledge of painting, graphics, abstract art and colour work. They are also perfect for unique moments to share in a group: team building, bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthdays or any other creative event. The goal is to explore and free your imagination through painting (acrylic, watercolor, oil and dry pastel). Here, it is not about reproducing reality, but about exploring the movement of the brush, the shapes and colors that translate your emotions and ideas, to create a personal and unique work. Example of how sessions unfold: -> Initial exchange: Discussion about your desires, inspirations or projects. -> Creative warm-up: Fun exercises to stimulate the imagination. -> Creation of the work: Support in the creation of a unique painting. -> Finishes: Cold analysis, possible retouching...
