About the lesson

I prefer keeping it basic and stepwise -that's how I learnt. Portraying involves observing and capturing minute details and this can come with time and patience. So it's desirable to be slow and extremely observant on my part.

My teaching techniques are unique for every individual as each person has his/her own different perspective and grasping. Mediums I have worked with are shading pencil, charcoal, colour pencil, watercolour, acrylic colour and oil paints. I give classes in group and individually.

I believe everyone has an artistic side; so come, let's explore yours!

About Dhvani

I am a professional portrait artist with over 8 years of experience in teaching pencil sketches and portraying. I have been tutoring people of different age groups right from students to middle-aged.

For those in my retro club- I have mastered charcoal and black n white shading techniques. Ever doubted if we can make a natural human face of blood and flesh with colours? Well, yes! we can definitely make it vibrant and it's still natural. Trust me ;)

I also teach object drawings, abstract paintings and scenic paintings. Always open for orders if you are looking for a customized painting for your walls!

Dhvani is a great tutor to hire. She examined all of the notes for the parts of the class which I was confused on and explained them to me in a way that was easy to understand. She shows great knowledge of the topics and is very easy to learn from.

Since day one, I have been fascinated by her ability to see things differently and beautifully. She finds peace in art. When she is painting, she is happy and while teaching she is happier. I would like to take this opportunity to recommend and compliment her for all the beautiful works she has done. One should definitely approach her if they want to learn drawing and making portraits from scratch. Cheers Dhvani. ️
