Fine Art tutors near me

Coming from an artistic family I have been surrounded by and practicing art my whole life. I realise art is not only about technique and composition but also about what you have to say. I had art as a matric subject so I will be able to take a learner through all the necessary steps to build a great portfolio not only for school purposes but also to establish themselves as an artist there after if they so wish. For adults I realise that they might not be doing art for academic or career purposes and simply wish to further a skill for enjoyment. Here I will encourage you to grow in your skill set and confidence to exhibit your work.

I studied Fine Art at the University of Cape Town so I have a lot of experience in the field. I am patient and understanding when it comes to teaching others which in addition to my experience in the subject would make me a suitable tutor.

Art is a great passion of mine. It was my favourite subject in school where I won an interhouse art competition & got an A for matric. I have been to various museums around the world and have a vast general knowledge of the subject.

Having studied a degree in Fine Art I have much experience in this subject and content. This included the way the visual world influences us on a daily basis and how students need to become more visually literate in how to read adverts. Fine Art teaches us that there numerous ways of seeing a situation and how important it is to contextualise a visual moment. I have much experience in art theory and how to write effectively in terms of structure and content. I can therefore help students to improve the way that they write specific to an art historical context.

I love art. I often find myself drawing and sketching. One of my favorite mediums to use is pencil, soft pastel and charcoal. In my free time I create pieces of art that inspires me and reflects my subconscious mind as well as my interests.

I am involved with art since the age of 8 and also took lessons at an art school Art for All in Brackenfell. Since I stopped with classes I only do some art at home as a hobby as my profession keeps me too busy to do it full time. I am a very artistic person and loves to be creative. Therefore I will be able to keep a child busy with art activities or even help with school related art tasks.

I have been a private tutor for the last five years. history is an extremely interesting subject and one that I excelled in during high school. I have experience tutoring in the subject and can assist with exam preparation, essay writing, research and terminology.

I loved art at school and still do. But sometimes unlocking the creativity can be hard. I am experienced with fine art and think students will definitely benefit with my experience in the subject. My study methods and techniques allow children to understand and apply their knowledge. I inspire confidence and provide support for any of my students.

Not only am I an amateur artist myself, but I used to work for the prestigious Park West Gallery as an international art auctioneer for many years. I have sold Picasso's, Dali's and Renoir's among many others. I received extensive training and mentoring in the curating and history of art and I have insider info that few art teachers possess. Most art teachers can relay information they learned from art books, I can relay information from first hand international experience.

Art History is one of my greatest passions, hence the reason why I am currently doing a degree in Visual Art. Essay writing is also a very important skill to have for this subject and I believe I have the knowledge to improve those skills.
