Weekly Art Classes
Technique
We learn about drawing, painting and color from their bases.
We start by messing around with pencils, charcoal and pastels, and then we can jump into other techniques, chosen by each student: from watercolors and tempera, to acrylics and oils.
Awareness
Painting can be considered a medium or process for something bigger.
Alienation from the outside world and the need to be present, observing and being aware of what is in front of us, becomes therapy for many. And a process of self-knowlegde for others.
Slowness
Time stops when we do something we really enjoy. And the hurry in which we live the everyday takes a second place when painting. With no pressure or expectations, art is more gentle and rewarding when we leave space for failure and slowness.
Art and Painting as tools for personal growing
With over three years of experience in art education, I am passionate about making art accessible and inclusive for all. Everyone has the potential to express themselves creatively, regardless of their background or experience.
I foster a supportive environment where students feel comfortable taking risks, experimenting, and exploring their creative potential.
Beyond the act of creating, I believe that art can serve as a powerful tool for meditation and personal growth.
