Each level lasts 4 weeks. That's 16 hours of live lessons + extras depending on the goal.
Private / Individual Tutoring

The cost of your training depends on the number of sessions per month. We recommend starting with an active phase and gradually reducing the frequency of your lessons. Your program will always be customized to your individual needs.

Active Phase

4 sessions per month, each 2 hours long
plus remote consultations between sessions and additional materials.

This frequency helps you smoothly establish a productive creative process without creating unnecessary pressure.
This approach is also ideal when you're actively working on a creative project, like an exhibition, a book, or an album.

*' If you want to get into the routine faster, we can intensify the session schedule.

200 euro - 4 weeks

Relaxed Phase

2 sessions per month, each 2 hours long
plus remote consultations between sessions and additional materials.

This option is only available after successful completion of the Active Phase.
100 euro - 4 weeks

Maintenance Phase

1 session per month, lasting 2 hours
plus additional materials provided throughout the month.

This format is ideal for maintaining your creative momentum, reviewing work completed during the month, and analyzing your artistic development. It's designed for those who can already sustain a regular and productive creative process independently throughout the month.

This option is only available after successfully completing the Relaxed Phase.
50 euro - 4 weeks

One-Time Consultation / Portfolio Review

A Portfolio Review involves an analysis and discussion of your work along with personalized recommendations. During the review, we'll discuss your strengths and weaknesses as an artist and your creative journey. Based on this analysis, we'll suggest ways to develop the artistic, thematic, and conceptual aspects of your work, offering recommendations for your creative and career growth.

This service is ideal for anyone who is exploring their creativity and seeking methods for development.
