As a Visual Arts Teacher, I have been providing lessons for children in Brisbane and Sydney since 2014.
Being educated in Visual Arts (7 years in Visual Arts School and 6 years in University) and having work experience in Graphic Design and Illustration, I decided to change my career in 2014 and to dedicate myself to developing children’s creativity and visual arts skills.
I believe that academic knowledge is very important in visual arts as a basis.
If you have basis, a field for experiments can be enormous. As a basement is important for the house, as roots are important for a tree, or as wings are important for a bird, the strong basis is important for any artist.
Even if you plan to make a career as an abstract artist, for inner confidence in yourself, for acknowledgement of the true artist in yourself, knowledge of basis is truly essential. Take a look, for instance, at early art works of Kandinsky, Malevich, Mondrian and other founders of abstract art – they all had a strong academic school, and only thereafter, years later, they had come to simple forms and colours, that was their non-simple way. When you pass this path by yourself, from basics to finding your own style, only then you can feel yourself professional.
Lessons are delivered in the system, from simple to complex, but, at the same time, with fun and on interesting to children topics. Each lesson – peculiar challenge to children. I believe that only getting to know something new each time and overcoming difficulties, it is possible to make the true breakthrough in anything. The same is true for visual arts. I see that this is a thing that is truly working.
It is often in the beginning of the lesson, when I am telling which project we are planning to do today, I hear puzzled exclamations of children like “Is THIS what we will be doing? But how will we cope with this?” Nevertheless, we bring complex but interesting projects into life and students results is what steadily inspire.
