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.

Photoshop est utilisé différemment pour peindre ou dessiner qu'il ne l'est pour la retouche photographique. Je vais vous montrer comment utiliser tous les outils du programme, mais je vais également vous apprendre comment penser quand il s'agit de game art, de concept art et d'illustration, que ce soit pour la conception de personnages, de créatures, d'environnements ou de props (accessoires). Je vous enseignerai également tous les fondamentaux indispensables dans l'industrie, tels que l'anatomie, la perspective, la couleur et la lumière, et la composition. Diplômé de l'École Émile Cohl avec un baccalauréat spécialisé en Game Art, j'ai eu la chance de travailler avec plus de 15 studios différents de jeux vidéo, de jeux de société, de jeux de cartes à collectionner (TCG) et de jeux de rôle, en créant pour eux des concept art et des illustrations. Aujourd'hui professeure d'art, j'utilise mon expérience et mes compétences, à la fois en tant qu'artiste qu'enseignante pour partager avec vous toutes mes connaissances de ce sujet et de l'industrie du jeu.
