Information About Elena - Fulham teacher

Personal Description:

Hi, I'm Elena! I'm from Bologna, north Italy, and I live in the UK.

I have pursued art studies since my teenage years, initially studying Fine Arts and Sciences with a specialisation in Architecture and Design.
I obtained a 1st class Bachelor of Arts degree at the Academy of Fine Arts of Bologna in Painting and Photography, where I also worked as a professor's assistant in the etching class for a couple of years, helping students of all ages and nationalities.
I studied at Chelsea College of Arts for the Graduate Diploma in Fine Art (Distinction) and am finishing my MA in Art and Science at Central Saint Martins (UAL).
Other universities (e.g. RCA and City & Guilds) also accepted my portfolio and offered me a place for their courses.

Teaching Experience:

I worked as a professor's assistant in the etching class at the Academy of Fine Arts of Bologna for a couple of years, helping students of all ages and nationalities.
I have exhibited my artwork in Bologna, Venice, Milan, and London. I worked as a photographer and graphic designer for Italian and international artists (painters, sculptors and musicians). I also worked as assistant in a gallery and in a restoration studio.

Teaching Approach:

I have worked with people from all backgrounds and nationalities, from teens to older people; flexibility is my key point, and our sessions will be tailored to you.

I can help you with anything you need: techniques, planning and making a project, portfolio, photographing your work, submissions, applications, health and safety, and presenting, curating and exhibiting your work. I will also encourage you to look at some artists, styles, and art history.

I normally use two cameras for online lessons so you can see what I do and better understand the process. I also use slides and videos, depending on your needs. I focus on environment-friendly techniques and processes.
