While the artist is using Sight-Size to draw the motif in the same size as he sees it, the Comparative Method can be used to enlarge or reduce motifs.
The Academy of Fine Art is one of the few art schools worldwide teaching traditional, realistic drawing and painting. In Germany we are the first academy providing the classical techniques of the 19th century’s European art academies.
Our goal is to bring back the tradition of art to Germany. Our program concentrates on the classical craft. Becoming one of our students means spending the next 3 years of your time mostly in front of an easel. Our teachers will push you to your limits. Realistic drawing and painting, training your eyes, having a precise feeling for proportions and seeing the lights and shadows will become your second nature.
Professional artist, architect, digital artist, graphic designer, fashion designer, product designer, sculptor, tattoo artist or gaming industry professional. These are all professions, in which you must be able to draw and paint realistically and traditionally. In most national universities this is something you will not learn. They mostly concentrate on theory like art history or will focus on modern subjects. But realistic drawing and painting is the foundation of everything. Old masters as well as living masters were aware of this and therefore studied this craft properly.
For this reason, over the past 20 years academies like ours were built to bring back the tradition and quality of learning these skills.
The Academy of Fine Art Germany creates professional artists. We make you feel powerful and give you the security to draw and paint whatever you want.
Our teachers all graduated from famous art academies and are all highly professional artists. We work with a permanent team of teachers as well as a group of flexible instructors coming in for workshops / lectures.
