Vaibhav Fauzdar

I am Vaibhav, a visual designer and painter with a background in motion design and formal training in drawing and painting in Barcelona. I have also exhibited my work in a group show in London. My teaching approach is practical, process focused, and accessible to beginners. In this session, “Stealing from Great Paintings Without Copying Them”, you will learn how to study existing artworks in a deeper way. Instead of copying details, we will break paintings into simple structures like shapes, values, and composition, and understand the decisions behind them. You will then create your own image using those principles in a personal way. My lessons are interactive and relaxed. I combine explanation, simple exercises, and open discussion so that you not only understand but also apply what you learn during the session. I focus on helping you develop your own way of seeing rather than following fixed rules.
Many people feel stuck because they try to replicate what they see without understanding it. In my sessions, I guide you to observe more clearly and make confident decisions while creating.
You do not need prior experience in painting or drawing. The exercises are simple and designed so anyone can participate, whether you are completely new or already practicing.
I also share insights from my own process, including how I study paintings, correct mistakes, and rebuild compositions. The aim is to give you tools you can continue using after the session, so your learning does not stop when the workshop ends.
