Learn With Me

Did you know that before doing my second round of college education in Textile Design I was a professional educator with an honors diploma? Originally an English & German teacher and translator, I'm coming back to my roots as an educator, this time offering classes in textile & surface pattern design and painting- on popular demand from my YouTube subscribers (still remaining an active designer and working artist!).

I've posted 2 classes on Skillshare - a popular platform where you can take unlimited classes from different teachers once you get an annual membership. Via my link, you can get 1 month free - and take my Introduction to Surface Pattern and Textile Design - Your Unique Path and Painting For Textile Design courses. More classes on the way!

Have you been curious about the exciting surface pattern design field? What about textile design - are they the same? In my intro class I share everything you need to get started in surface design, from pattern categories and layouts to supplies and all the income possibilities!

This class will help you choose the best path as a surface pattern designer (and beyond!)  according to your talents and preferences. No previous experience needed! The mini course is packed with examples of my own art as well as useful links, pointers and insider tips.

My Painting For Textile Design is structured from simple to more advanced techniques, so even if it is your first time painting, it is easy to follow and accessible. We'll go from monochrome to basic and easy to understand color mixing, planning and composition, working with references and creating original designs without plagiarizing.

Textile and surface design is used as a teaching base, but this class has a broader appeal for general painting skills. So if you've ever thought of learning to paint, this is your time!
