Twenty years of painting, teaching, and visual research.

Nabil Visual Solutions is Nabil Farag's practice as a painter, mentor, and VFX researcher — teaching and tutoring artists and photographers, coloring and finishing film for independent creators, and building visual systems for studios and organizations. Built on two decades of studio and screen craft.

Three principles that shape every painting, lesson, and project.

01

Practice over theory

Technique means nothing until it's in your hand. Painting, compositing, and teaching are all practiced the same way — by doing the work, not just discussing it.

02

Built for the student, not the lecture

A lesson that only works as a slide fails the day someone's actually stuck at the easel or the timeline. We teach for that moment.

03

Craft that holds up under real use

Whether it's a painting, a composite, or a lesson plan, it's built to survive real practice — not just look good once.

Two decades of visual craft — painting, VFX, and now teaching it.

A limited number of students and projects, every quarter.

I don't teach or take on work by the hour, and I don't take every project or student who asks. Tell me what you're after and I'll tell you if I'm the right fit.
