Watercolour
The most honest of all media — water remembers every decision.
From luminous washes and wet-into-wet skies to disciplined botanical studies, the watercolour programme teaches you to collaborate with water rather than command it. You will study transparency, granulation, edge control, and the restraint that gives watercolour its unmistakable light.

Oil Painting
The medium of the masters — patient, forgiving, and infinitely deep.
Learn the classical craft: underpainting, fat-over-lean, glazing and scumbling, colour temperature and the slow construction of atmosphere. The oil programme moves from still life through landscape to portraiture, following the ateliers of the great tradition.

Acrylic
Contemporary, fearless, and fast — colour at the speed of thought.
Acrylic rewards boldness. This programme explores expressive mark-making, layering and texture media, abstraction and contemporary composition — ideal for students who want striking results and a modern voice, without the long drying times of oil.

Pastel
Pure pigment under the fingertips — immediate as touch.
Beloved of Degas for good reason: pastel unites the intimacy of drawing with the richness of painting. You will learn layering and blending, the handling of soft and hard pastels, portrait and still-life technique, and how to make velvet out of dust.

Drawing & Sketching
Before colour, there is line. Before line, there is seeing.
The foundation of everything. Drawing tuition at Jelveh is where Dr. Moezoddin's architectural formation shines brightest: perspective that actually works, structure you can feel, and observational skills built through classical exercises — from gesture and contour to fully rendered tonal studies.
