Studio Technique





Studio Technique offers classical life drawing instruction which is the core of any artistic discipline. Our focus is to provide a strong foundation in drawing which will not only strengthen the abilities of the fine artist, but also provide the training needed by commercial artists, such as those in the animation, illustration, graphics and comic book industries.

Samantha Youssef, the artistic director of Studio Technique has worked in companies such as Walt Disney Animation, Ubisoft, Filmax, and Yowza Animation. Studio Technique is responsible for the artistic training of many of the local Montreal gaming studios such as BioWare, Electronic Arts and Ubisoft.

At Studio Technique, we believe drawing is a language. We strive to encourage the poetry in the advanced artist, and teach the words and grammar of drawing to the beginner so they too can learn to speak it. There are courses for all levels of artists, from the first time artist to specialized courses designed for the needs of industry professionals. Uninstructed drop-in sessions with a model are also available for those who wish to practice on their own time.
