I don't just lecture on theory; I paint live so you can see my brush control and palette management in real-time. If you're joining a class, be ready to pick up your brush and start sketching or painting along with me right from the first day. ### My Approach to Teaching I treat art as a practice of honesty. Whether you are learning to handle watercolors or working on charcoal anatomy, the goal isn't to replicate what you see on Instagram. My workshops and online courses are designed to help you build a solid foundation—anatomy, perspective, and light—so you can express your own ideas. ### What You Can Expect * **Live Demos:** I don't believe in passive learning. In my live sessions (online or in-person), I demonstrate every stroke. You see the palette mixing, the brush pressure, and the water control as it happens. * **Practical Foundations:** We cover the basics properly. From understanding paper quality and brushes to mastering wet-on-wet watercolor techniques, we ensure the technical side is strong so your creativity has a structure to lean on. * **Constructive Feedback:** I provide critiques in private groups, ensuring you understand exactly what to improve, whether it's a landscape painting or a portrait sketch. ### Join a Workshop I travel across India—from Hyderabad to Bangalore—for intensive, 1-day workshops. If you prefer long-term guidance, my studio mentorship in Ghaziabad and live online courses offer consistent, guided practice. *Note: I have a strict policy against using others' work for competition submissions. We create original work here, and I am here to help you develop the skills to do exactly that.* ## About Shashank Shukla I am Shashank, an artist and educator who believes art should be honest and authentic. I travel across India for workshops and run live online classes, all with one goal: helping you find your own creative style through watercolors and sketching.
