Recent reviews of Portrait Drawing Workshop

  • 5/5 from Ella Shin, attended Feb 2026: Our class was great!! Our instructor was so kind and helpful and taught us the basics of portrait drawing, including proportions of the face and how to create correct proportions from different angles, as well as how to use graphite pencils and the different types. Would absolutely recommend this class, great for beginners!

As a traditional artist I love to express myself through art and represent the beauty of each person in a handmade drawing portrait, because every human face and anatomical expression detail tell a story, that I would like to explore through image and beyond that, at a emotional level to find a connection with the viewer, using multiple gray tones and textures. I specialize in graphite pencil on paper working on a personal art technique.
I studied art in Romania, at the “University of Arts “, also I have a degree in art and 3D animation.
I find that teaching other students what I know is very important to me, and fulfilling. Every connection is unique and different and complex.
I teach about drawing mostly, portraits and realism, still nature, human body and art compositions.
My art was featured in a magazine also, Artist Closeup.
I will be happy to meet you!
