welcome to dara
The Dutch Atelier of Realist Art is a private vocational school in Haarlem dedicated to the study of contemporary realism. We offer skill-based instruction that centers around achieving a high level of ability in drawing and painting through direct observation.
Our instructors are classically trained professionals who share a common philosophy towards figurative arts training. At DARA, we believe an authentic classical education is founded on a high level of technical achievement, developed through the deliberate and rigorous imitation of nature.
While we teach a variety of different approaches in our courses and workshops, ranging from 17th century to contemprary academic methods, this philosophy is at the core of all that we offer at DARA.
