Classically Trained Fine Artist and Illustrator

Alfredo E.

I am a classically trained fine artist and illustrator. I have been teaching privately for 10 years and have also taught in a middle school for one year. I have exhibited widely in the United States and Mexico and have been commissioned by celebrities such as Michael Nyman and Hugh Hefner. I studied Fine Art with a focus on painting and drawing in the Academia de San Carlos in Mexico City and privately with experts in the field such as Rob Howard and Graydon Parrish.

I specialize in traditional drawing and painting. I create custom courses of study for my students that are based on their goals, interests, expectations, and desires in their art education. These can range anywhere from color theory, basic and advanced academic drawing, old master techniques, how to mix and match any color one sees, pictorial composition, portraiture, the rendering of almost any material in the medium of the student's choice, etc. My students range from the very young to any age thereafter.

I have been teaching privately for 10 years and helping students achieve the proficiency they desire in their artwork, whether they are just beginning or already acquainted with or advanced in drawing and painting and desiring to take their skills to higher levels. I have exhibited in museums and galleries in my native Mexico and in several galleries in the United States. I was also granted the honor of an O1 Visa for aliens of extraordinary ability when I first arrived in this country.

I look forward to hearing from you!
