Art Coaching
Looking through the eyes of another artist is eye-opening.
Welcome to the Art of Drawing
Work with Award-Winning European Artist Jacobina Oele an award-winning European artist with decades of experience teaching drawing, painting, and personal transformation. Her approach combines classical technique, modern neuroscience, and intuitive coaching to help students unlock their unique creative voice.
Learn the Fundamentals of Drawing
Unlock your creative potential through a hands-on approach to drawing. In my courses, you’ll explore:
- Line and shape
- Value and shading
- Texture and scale
- Perspective and proportion
By taking my individual courses you are able to build a strong foundation using a variety of traditional drawing mediums, no experience required. However watching the videos alone won’t develop your skills. Taking action will. Understanding the theory is only part of the journey. Real growth happens when you apply the steps consistently, just like brushing your teeth.
Why Choose a Coach Instead of 300 Colored Pencils?
You may be thinking: “Why invest in a coach when I could buy 300 colored pencils in a beautiful box?”
It depends on what you want.If your goal is short-term satisfaction, something beautiful to own, then yes, the pencils might be the better choice. But if you value long-term growth and want to learn how to use color with intention, confidence, and skill, then coaching offers far greater rewards. Here, you’ll learn how to manage creative overwhelm and build your skills one step at a time. If you’re ready to create instead of just consume, you’re in the right place.
Drawing is More Than Art. It’s Brain Training
Drawing isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifelong skill with countless benefits.It helps sharpen your thinking, improve problem-solving, and foster creativity. When you draw, your brain is constantly inventing, analyzing, and exploring new perspectives. It also activates the right side of the brain, where imagination and intuition thrive. Drawing helps grow new neural pathways, and yes, it can even make you smarter.
- It activates the creative right brain.
- It builds new neural pathways.
- It even makes math problems easier.
Whether you’re 18 or 80, drawing is a lifelong skill that keeps your mind active and your spirit engaged.
Why Coaching Matters
Just like athletes benefit from having a coach, artists thrive with support and guidance. Life is full of challenges, from unexpected repairs, emotional stress and busy schedules. While I can’t fix those problems for you, I can help you gain clarity around them. Together, we’ll explore what might be holding you back so you can move forward with focus and freedom. There’s a hidden wisdom in what we can’t see at first glance. Becoming aware of those deeper layers can save you years of frustration, freeing up your energy to make the vibrant, meaningful artwork you’ve always wanted to create.

What Others Are Saying
Testimonial
“When I took figure drawing classes from the Ringling school for Art and Design, Jacobina was my patient teacher. I had a desire to tap into the vast knowledge she showed. When she offered coaching I didn’t hesitate. We both committed to three months of drawing. I thought there was not much else to learn after three months, but boy, was I wrong. We have been working for almost a year and it feels like I never want to stop discovering various drawing techniques.”
