1.PREPARE YOUR ARTWORK for video consultation
Before purchasing your video consultation, please prepare your artwork for submission. Take a clear, well-lit photo that accurately shows the colors, details, and overall look of your piece. When you submit your artwork, Alicja personally reviews each piece with a trained eye, considering composition, color, proportions, and overall expression. Based on her careful analysis, she provides tailored guidance and practical next steps designed to help you refine your work, improve realism, and strengthen your artistic skills. Every suggestion is drawn from her years of experience in painting, drawing, and teaching, ensuring that the feedback is both actionable and insightful. The resulting video gives you a clear path forward, highlighting what’s working well and where you can focus your efforts to grow as an artist. If you’re struggling with a specific part of your piece, you can include up to five focused questions for a single atwork (MONO option). When submitting two artworks (DUO option), you may include up to six questions (three per piece), and for three artworks (TRIO option), up to nine questions in total (three per piece).
If the content fits within the chosen consultation time, Alicja will address as many of your questions as possible during her review. Please make sure your notes are typed (not handwritten) and uploaded as a separate file together with your artwork.
This preparation ensures your consultation is personalized and the feedback video is clear, focused and practical.

Personalized Aquarelle ART
Alicja is gespecialiseerd in aquarelportretten, een verfijnde en uitdagende schildertechniek waarbij elke laag verf doorschijnt. Dit betekent dat het kiezen van de juiste kleuren cruciaal is, omdat kleuren zoals wit transparant zijn en geen andere lagen kunnen bedekken. Het licht in het portret wordt gecreëerd door delen van het papier onbeschilderd te laten.
Ze biedt twee soorten portretten aan: monochroom, waarbij één kleur wordt gebruikt (zoals blauw-wit, rood-wit, of bruin-wit), en portretten met een mix van 3-7 kleuren. Monochrome portretten zijn niet beperkt tot zwart-wit, maar kunnen ook variaties in andere kleuren bevatten. Portretten met meerdere kleuren zijn complexer, omdat het mengen en opbouwen van kleuren meer precisie en tijd vraagt. Hierdoor liggen de kosten voor meerkleurige portretten hoger.
Alicja geeft altijd persoonlijk advies over het ontwerp en werkt nauw samen met haar klanten om een uniek en prachtig kunstwerk te creëren. Bij portretten met meerdere kleuren maakt ze een try-out palet om het kleurgebruik vooraf af te stemmen. Dit proces zorgt ervoor dat het eindresultaat precies aansluit bij de verwachtingen van de klant.

Testimonials°
" I had a fantastic experience with Alicja. The classes are very relaxing and friendly, she is patient and takes time to explain to every students how to paint or draw. She also has a great sense of humour! Besides that, I was extremely pleased with what I learned both with color mixing, painting and drawing techniques. She has a precise and elaborate way of teaching that work both with beginners and advanced levels. I have already some experiences and those classes allowed me to reconnect with my skills and to discover new methods. I highly recommend her! "
