Art and interior design go hand in hand.
Artwork should seamlessly blend with the space while showcasing the client’s personality.
However, incorrect placement within the interior can result in an unbalanced space and diminish the artwork’s aesthetic appeal.
Let’s explore ways to enhance interior aesthetics.
My tutoring is dedicated to students who are already attending Art Schools or Universities.
I am specialised in supervision of student current work and projects in course, as well as revision of exams material. The goal is to boost students' capacities, teach them to optimise working time, coach them with methods of learning and to keep students constantly challenged.
Design Initiation is a class designed for children, adolescents, and seniors alike.
Through engaging and unconventional learning methods, apprentices will acquire the foundational knowledge of the design process, which will serve as a cornerstone for their future creative expressions.
During this course, we will explore various aspects of design, including 1. Seeking inspiration 2. Identifying starting points in the creative process 3. Utilizing different platforms and tools in design 4. Understanding how selected elements transform into design products 5.
Recognizing the significance of graphic design across fields such as fashion, interior architecture, industrial and furniture design, and more. Tailoring the approach to each apprentice’s potential and interests, we will incorporate drawing, illustration, typography, and photography, as well as explore the use of popular social media platforms.
Additionally, lessons will cover strategies for standing out among other designers, the creation of mood boards, design best practices, and techniques to make designs appealing and visible to a broad audience. For those with a particular interest in calligraphy techniques, specialized courses will be available.
And much more awaits future designers!
During our structured lessons and engaging exercises, pupils/students will gain comprehensive knowledge about paper sizes and formats, designing with proper proportions, text placement, integrating illustration and photography, and selecting suitable typography.
Our lessons also cover strategies for standing out among other designers, the creation and significance of mood-boards, best practices in design, and techniques to make designs captivating and appealing to a wide audience.
We foster a positive and enthusiastic environment because while designing is undeniably hard work, it’s also incredibly rewarding.

Old scripts from nature: learning Chinese charactersHello! :)
Originally, I am an art teacher from China and got a Master's degree in Finland. I am inspired by cross-cultural life and learning experience here and focusing on cross-cultural education of art and language.
Chinese is a language, but also a sign back to the ancient. In my class, I will introduce to you the roots of the Chinese characters and also the art and culture related, for example, the original meaning of the character signs, the basic way of writing, the relationship between the characters and the traditional paper cutting crafts...
Each class you will get to learn about 20 characters under a theme. You will get inspired by these pictograms created thousands of years ago. Of course, your interests will be the first and most important priority.
It can be an art and creativity dialogue about text and image, rather than a language class because I believe that language is invented for emotion, expression, and communication! Hope to see you!

Learn how to speak, read and write Arabic in different dialectsIt is clear that the role of a teacher in a language class goes beyond just clarifying and teaching the language because language is intricate and is linked with real life, and is therefore not straightforward. Terms in any language are most of the time connected to its sociological usage rather than just its linguistic function. Whenever my students ask me similar questions, I see it as a great opportunity to enlighten them on Arabic terms which most times also leads us to discuss other topics, including religion.

Learn to write well: aesthetic writing and calligraphy lessonsWho hasn't dreamed of having beautiful handwriting?
Handwriting may be increasingly relegated to the background of education, but it remains a fundamental skill. Being able to write legibly with good letterforms is the first step to beautiful handwriting, which is still an important social marker today.
It is by mixing reminders of theory - often approached too quickly when learning to write at school, then forgotten - and practical exercises, that everyone can considerably improve their pen. The holding of the pen is not negligible.
If the primary purpose is the aesthetics of writing, the activity allows the development of otherwise neglected motor skills.
Feel free to message me if you have any questions,
I will be happy to chat with you :)

Chinese Calligraphy practice and Chinese culture .Hej!
I'm Yang from China. I am a student in Stockholm University doing my master's program. I love Chinese calligraphy because it is an art about beauty, rhythm, comprehension and so on. I have practiced Chinese calligraphy for almost 20 years and got my high school offer by calligraphy examination selection (2 places offered). During all these years, I learnt lots of script kinds and practiced a lot, so I can help if you are a beginner or intermediate, or perhaps advanced. During the class, you'll also get some knowledge about Chinese culture.
Feel free to contact me!
