I am a very passionate person when it comes to making fun with colors, drawing, crafts, and calligraphy.

Have you ever heard of macrame?
Macrame is a knotting technique that can be used to create many great projects from cotton yarn.

In this course I'll show you online how to get started and how to use the basic knots very quickly. You can make so many projects using these knots: wall hangings, keychains, wall mirrors, hanging baskets...

Just a nice hobby now that you have to spend a lot of time indoors.

If you are curious or just don't feel like watching YouTube tutorials but want to learn macrame from a person, then let me know!
See you soon 😊

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 12 years of practice teaching people how to do it. We work together step by step to understand the technique, the way to prepare wooden panel to paint an icon and the techniques of making a good project to make the icon fit to the board. We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the halos. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

Get ready for creativity, giggles, and a whole lot of colorful mess! I’m starting a super fun arts & crafts class just for kids where imagination runs wild and every project feels like an adventure. We’ll paint, glue, cut, sprinkle glitter, and turn everyday ideas into awesome creations kids will be excited to show off.

This class is all about exploring, trying new things, building confidence, and having FUN while we create. No pressure to be “perfect,” just a welcoming space where little artists can express themselves, make friends, and leave with big smiles (and maybe a little paint on their sleeves 🤭).

I am calm and patient and help you to focus on foundational skills, including reading a simple pattern, identifying stitch types, joining new yarn, and finishing techniques. Focus can be basic stitches like chain stitch, single and double crochet, joining in new yarn, good tension and even edges.

This class combines practical art skills with inspiring art history and cultural storytelling.

Students will learn essential creative techniques including drawing in an imaginary way the human body and face, colour theory, and expressive mark making. Alongside technical training, we will explore influential artists and artistic movements, with a focus on themes such as legacy, identity, Balkan history, post-Soviet and dissident art traditions.

This course encourages students to develop both their technical confidence and their personal artistic voice. Participants will create their own artwork while learning how history, culture, and storytelling shape artistic expression.

Suitable for beginners and intermediate students who want to develop strong foundations while exploring deeper artistic meaning.
