Visual Arts Classes in Nantes – Kids, Teens, and Adults
Since 2018, I’ve been guiding children, teens, and adults through the discovery and exploration of visual arts in French, English, Persian, and LSF (French Sign Language).
In Nantes, my workshops take place in schools, through private lessons at home, and with partner organizations. Every session is an invitation to express your creativity, develop your visual identity, and experience the joy of making things with your hands.
Why take a visual arts workshop?
✨ Nurture your creativity
These workshops encourage everyone to imagine, take chances, and express themselves freely without judgment. It’s not about performance, but the pure joy of creating.
🎨 Discover a variety of techniques
Drawing, painting, collage, printmaking, sculpture… Students experiment with many practices to enrich their visual language.
🧠 Spark imagination and sensitivity
Drawing inspiration from stories, emotions, memories, or works of art, each student builds a personal relationship with the creative process.
Techniques covered
Each workshop offers a tactile, visual, and sensory exploration using a wide range of mediums and tools:
Techniques: drawing, painting (acrylic, gouache, watercolor), clay sculpture, linocut, stenciling, collage, flip books, murals…
Materials: paintbrushes, colored pencils, soft and oil pastels, markers, pens, glue, stamps, Posca pens, string, modeling clay…
These tools let you freely explore colors, shapes, and textures in a warm, welcoming environment.
Workshops tailored for every age group
Preschool & Pre-K (Ages 3 to 5)
A playful creative workshop for little ones: they discover a variety of materials and combine them in their own unique way. Activities focus on fun, movement, and emotional expression: stamp painting, modeling clay, ceramic clay, chunky brushes, markers, collage, and more.
Kindergarten to 2nd Grade (Ages 5 to 8)
At this age, children build their fine motor skills and expand their imagination. They explore different techniques in greater depth (collage, stenciling, ink, printmaking…) through engaging projects and age-appropriate themes.
Grades 3 to 5 (Ages 8 to 11)
These workshops help students take drawing and illustration further, inspired by fairy tales, fantasy worlds, or famous artworks. Comic strips, manga, flip books, origami, board games, posters, or printmaking… anything can become the starting point for visual storytelling.
Teens, adults, and seniors
More personalized creative sessions centered on self-expression, exploring new techniques, or even building a portfolio. Feel free to reach out to discuss customized projects.
