Sofia Basanes Vazquez

As both a graduate and teacher in Visual Arts, I specialize in painting, drawing, and printmaking. My lessons combine art history, theory, and hands-on practice, always tailored to your goals and personal experience.
I believe everyone can enjoy and grow through art, — whether you’re just beginning or you’re already on an artistic journey and seeking mentorship. My teaching style is dynamic, flexible, and interactive, adapting to your rhythm and creative potential.

First step: Let’s meet!
The first lesson is a free trial interview — a relaxed conversation where we get to know each other. I want to hear:
- Why are you interested in learning art?
- What’s your background or curiosity?
- What would you like to explore or improve?
This helps me create a personalized learning plan just for you, whether you're: an emerging artist looking for mentorship, a total beginner seeking to unlock creativity, someone curious about art history and technique, or a parent looking for a creative activity for your child.
I will adapt our work together with the right balance of structure and playfulness.

What makes my lessons unique?
- Personalized learning plans based on your goals
- Storytelling explanations with visual analysis
- Live demonstrations and practical exercises
- Creative activities that spark curiosity and confidence
- Educational material made by me in PDF
- Follow-ups and feedback to help you grow at your own pace
- Support in both English and Spanish

My mission is to help you find your own visual language — to inspire creativity, confidence, and joy through art. Let’s paint, think, and grow together!
