Hello all ! 😊 I am the artist Axelle, a teacher for 10 years in Parisian workshops, universities and art schools as well as online for individuals. Self-taught, I created an atypical method of learning drawing under intellectual protection: you will find all the information about my courses on my website, the address of which appears in the first photo of this ad. I can teach in French and English. This method, developed during my years of teaching and the collaboration of students, includes, among other things, the study of drawing, painting, proportions, human expression, observation, colorimetry and even art. therapy and demystifies everything that our modern era brings bias to these practices. Simple, logical explanations free of any vague, subjective, elitist or hazardous artistic concepts, as well as a return to the essential framework. The terms Art, Artist or Observation are redefined in a natural and factual space, all from a scientific and anthropological angle. The functioning of the brain, vision, the appreciation of distances, the evaluation of color, the appetite for texture and even the process of creativity are explained when necessary to set up a healthy experimental laboratory. and available to the student. Graphic expression being a cognitive and psychomotor activity, it is essential to understand the tools at our disposal to use them better and clear communication between the teacher and the student is essential to transmit this know-how: hence the difficulty growing popularity of teaching a sensory practice simply via a book or to an audience of more than twenty students. My approach is as follows: I am only the teacher of the moment and remain an eternal student, forever the sole disciple of experience. The same goes for my current students to whom I transfer the tools allowing them to become, in turn, their own teacher. Art requires flexibility of mind, self-knowledge, the abandonment of a certain struggle and the rigor that only a passion can give birth to without effort or constraints. Once these basic lines have been mastered and the technical aspects assimilated, a wonderful power opens up to you: that of expressing yourself as close as possible to your inner self with the power and intensity that words cannot achieve, in the The primitive and faithful authenticity of what resides deep within your consciousness. Human expression is the most dizzying of journeys. To rub shoulders with Art is to build the ship that will take you there from the most watertight and robust wood. Very or too often, I welcome adults or adolescents who are beginners in workshops to sincere questioning between themselves and Art. I take stock of the imaginary and unconscious barriers that today's ideas erect, and the notable waste that this can cause. The most important tool in learning to draw remains Observation, too often underestimated, wrongly: this is why my unique method is modeled on our way of perceiving and thinking about the world. From the very first minutes, we focus on this tool which brings together 80% of our ability to draw, rather than a classic educational framework which will omit the human and neurocognitive aspect which is nevertheless crucial behind this practice. So whatever your profession, your personality or your past, be sure to be legitimate in your first steps towards drawing or painting: no longer doubt the Artist within you.
