I am Selanna Holleman your teacher at Amsterdam House of Arts & Crafts.
Since graduating from the Breitner Academie in 2024, I have been working as a freelance drawing and painting instructor.
Throughout my studies, I developed experience with a variety of materials and techniques. At the same time I gained skills in teaching this knowledge to different age groups in different educational settings. For my graduation I specialised in drawing, painting, digital animation and video-editing.
I am experienced with acrylic paint and enjoy guiding students as they explore this medium. In my lessons I tend to focus mostly on the personal style development of my students, while helping them with the technical aspects of painting. This way, I hope to give them the tools they need to steer their own creative growth. At the same time I like stimulating people to paint things they wouldn't usually make at home.
