Personalized approach
Since everyone has a different learning pace and different expectations and goals, my students are taught on an individual basis. There could be a number of students in each class, but each student will receive personalized attention. This approach allows you to benefit from the instruction that fits your needs. This also means you can start a class at any time regardless of your level.
The Classes are taught in my home artist’s studio in Villeray, Montreal.
Adult classes
The observation drawing course will give you the tools and techniques that will allow you to draw anything with ease. Whether you want to refine your current skills or you’re starting from scratch, learning to draw well will give you the basic foundation required for the all the other courses. This course will give you the keys to unlock the doors of your creativity, avoiding the limitations and the frustrations that a lack of technical skills can cause.
Other courses available: tone drawing, soft pastel, oil painting, watercolour and portrait.

Lessons for adults are 3 hours long and cost 40$ per lesson.
