Tired of flat, plastic-looking digital art?
Having thousands of digital brushes won't help if your artwork lacks traditional fundamentals.

Learn how to translate centuries of traditional oil painting techniques directly into your modern pixel workflow.

We start by debunking the myths and prejudices around digital painting and learning how digital painting can help you understand color better and be a pivotal part of your painting workflow.
The Power of Pixels
We will paint digital art by mastering layers, blending modes, and custom tools to create gallery-quality artwork without the mess, drying time, or toxic solvents of a studio. We are going to use 4 different softwares with different features but with the same principles so you can pick the one that fits better with your style.

Hello! I'm Alai Ganuza.
I am a Fine Arts graduate and a full-time traditional oil painter. When I first transitioned to digital art, I was incredibly frustrated by how smooth and synthetic everything looked. I refused to lose my chunky, vibrant style. So, I developed the "Tradigital" method, combining my deep knowledge of traditional color theory with modern technology. Now, I'm here to show you exactly how to paint digitally with the heart and texture of an oil painter.

AlaiGanuza Academia is a platform mainly in English. However, all the videos have English and Spanish subtitles, where I not only talk but I demonstrate everything visually with a very simple language. Since you’ll have my support, I will communicate with you both in English and Spanish.
Why can’t I buy your course right now? (if closed)
My courses are only open for enrollment a few times a year. Between launches, registration is closed while I focus on supporting current students and other projects. You can join the waitlist to be the first to know when enrollment opens again and get early access to new course announcements.
Are the waiting lists the same as the newsletter?
The newsletter is my normal email list. I share with you in a more personal way, all the news about AlaiGanuza: future events, prints, commissions, discounts from time to time...
The waiting lists, on the other hand, are individual lists made for individual projects. Waiting lists are made to ensure you get the news of the course or event you are waiting for. Before anyone else, and often with special prices.
