This combination of art and English class will help children explore their creative ability and, at the same time, gain new language skills. We can discuss any medium you want your child to explore and I will create a suitable lesson for each class. Tailored classes with interesting artistic topics will provide extra motivation for students and encourage them to remember various information from the class. Join me and get creative using different art techniques while you boost the English language! *** I will provide materials for this class, but if you have a specific request that requires special equipment/materials please be ready to prepare/bring them to the class!

Icon painting with egg tempera, individual classes, historical technique
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 9 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 nimbs. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

Colorimetry: the color theory necessary for visual artists and makeup artists
Colorimetry is a fundamental tool to begin to understand the behavior of colors, where they come from, and how to obtain them. We will see the color wheel, primary and secondary colors, and how to apply them to create different types of palettes. In turn, we will see the triads of colors to generate cold and warm palettes, and you will experience first-hand how to create those colors. We will also have a brief part of research into pigments (the source of color) and works of art throughout history, to see the use of different painting techniques. Since we are going to focus in our classes on color theory, it is not strictly necessary that you know how to draw or paint, or that you have knowledge of perspective or others. This course is designed to complement your knowledge of art and improve your ability to choose the colors and palette you want to work with. As a bonus, this course will also help you apply your knowledge when applying makeup or applying makeup, since if it is something that interests you, let me know and we will incorporate it into the course. We will see how to apply colors according to the person's eye color and skin tones. I have a degree in Visual Arts with a Painting orientation from the National University of the Arts of Argentina and a theatrical makeup artist at the Theater Complex of the City of Buenos Aires and I am happy to be able to share my knowledge with you. If this is what you were looking for, welcome and I hope we start a very nice working relationship! See you in class, Camila.

Crochet for beginners (Learn basics of crochet step by step)
Crochet can be seen as a form of creative expression, as individuals can use these skills to make unique and personalised items. From intricate blankets and scarves to delicate lacework and hats, knitting and crochet offer endless opportunities to showcase creativity and individuality. It also helps to keep the mind sharp and stimulated, and improves dexterity. It is also known to promote a sense of calm and relaxation, which can help to reduce stress and anxiety. By focusing on the repetitive movements of knitting or crochet, the mind can enter a meditative state, providing a sense of mental and emotional balance.
