Inside the Course

Each session is designed as a focused, hands-on experience, allowing for deep, personalised guidance throughout the day.

With only one to two participants, Tomasina works closely with each artist, observing technique in real time, offering precise corrections, and refining the small details that make a significant difference to the final result. Participants are required to bring their own model, enabling them to work within a realistic client setting while developing confidence, efficiency and professional standards of practice.

The day is shaped around your level, your pace and your areas for improvement, creating a highly individualised experience that supports meaningful progression.
