Welcome - my name is Ros Devaux.

I am a practising artist and teacher with experience from the National Art School and hold a Diploma in Fine Arts , Drawing, Painting and Design from the Julian Ashton Art School.

I have been an Arts Educator for over 25 years and specialise in life drawing.

Drawing and teaching art is my passion.

I am currently running classes on the Sydney's North Shore for beginners, high school students and the more experienced who wish to develop their technique.

 

The topics covered with each student are -

  • fine art technique of drawing, painting and design
  • developing tonal understanding
  • anatomical appreciation
  • using perspective in drawing and rendering
  • understanding composition & personal symbols
  • control of offered mediums
  • personal colour awareness

These topics are explored in -

  • life drawing
  • portraiture
  • still life
  • imaginative art
  • botanical and nature studies

 

The mediums offered include conte crayon, charcoal, pencil, gouache, egg temperer, gold leaf and oil paint.

I will help you aquire the skills that will give you confidence and lead you to your freedom of expression.

If you are beginning the journey I will teach you and take you through the basic concepts, practising each stage and moving at your own pace until you are confident to go onto the next stage.

I will help you resolve the areas of difficulty you may be having with your work. A confident understanding and ability in drawing supports the student to explore and experiment with artistic ideas.

For the more advanced artist I will help resolve those areas of annoyance that keep holding you back from moving forward with your projects.

Testimonial

"Ros has been a true inspiration to work with.

She draws from her own broad experiences and encourages her students to go beyond their comfort zones.

Personally, for a self taught artist like myself, this has been a wonderful journey of self discovery and I owe it all to Ros.

She teaches not only from the head but also from the heart.

Thank you Ros, for your dedication, support and guidance"
