Stop the chaos
I don't know about you, but what happened to me is I felt a bit ‘lost in’ my drawing and painting. They never reached the level I was looking for. When I finally found my way out of the chaotic process of making a drawing I still only got a drawing that was not satisfactory. It looked dirty, my paper was often damaged because of the erasing and correcting errors. And I felt a bit down that despite all of my efforts the results were mediocre at their best.
Bargue Drawing Method
Until I learned how to work according to the method you will get to know in this course. It is based on French 19th-century Classic Academic drawing training. It built up my ability to draw realistic drawings. This course is set up to build form and realism in a relatively short time. My confidence was boosted! After taking this course you also will feel so confident!

Finally the result you are looking for
You will feel so satisfied, seeing people love the great result of your elegant drawings. You will taste this great feeling of accomplishment. And you will have the satisfaction of finally being able to work with clear steps towards a beautiful amazing end result. This also reflects on your paintings!
Can your art still grow to a higher level?
Yes, it can! Before taking a Bargue course I did not feel like a true professional. I always still felt my artwork wasn’t good enough. But that ended once I learned the things I now offer in this course.
Good art attracts customers
Your artwork will attract customers who adore an art piece with a real resemblance to the model. You will be the artist that gives them what they are really looking for. Fellow artists will be silent when they see your work. (This is really true!) Why? Because you have a skill most artists can only dream of, they know their skill is not where yours is! Your work will be professional.
'Good Art is Built on a Good Foundation'
Your Instructor
At age 4 Marion held grandpa's watercolor pencils for the first time. They came in a metal tin, with all the colors of the rainbow. This was the first time Marion was really attracted to color and drawing. The pastel portraits made by her grandfather awakened her artist's heart. This first experience with 'art' at a young age never let go of her. After learning a 'solid profession' as a secretary, she started a long-lasting learning curve that brought her artwork further.
Inspiration
She started her artist aspirations with watercolour painting and then switched to acrylic and mixed media. In her early years she mainly worked in a modernist style.
'I have made many inspired works based on my personal faith experiences. From 2013 there was a greater need for realistic works. I started to focus more on realism and the technique that is needed for this.
I developed a love for drawing and started to paint in oil as well, in the tradition of the Old Masters: I made master copies or preliminary studies of them in order to investigate and master the techniques. From this foundation of realism, being able to grasp form, tonality, and expressiveness, my mission is to revitalize the Dutch tradition of drawing and painting. It would be so beautiful if this Dutch legacy were to be preserved for future generations.'
Marion is the founder of Dutch Art Academy online school to facilitate realistic art education.
Education
Marion studied at the Gooische Academie in Laren, NL for 5 years and took lessons in watercolor, acrylic, and oil. She did several portrait and model courses, among others with Humphrey Bennett, Svetlana Tartakovska, and Anatomy/écorché with Per Olof Penrick (former Florence Academy of Art anatomy teacher). And portrait, landscape, and still life at the Russian art academy in Florence. In addition, she is constantly engaged in self-study.
Marion has been teaching drawing and painting in the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Germany since 2006.
