n this course I will show you how to upcycle your T-shirt by changing some details and giving it a new shape. Instead of throwing it away, you create a new garment.

You will learn how to change a garment by altering the shilouette, increasing the neckline, changing the sleeves, adding an elastic band.

You can apply this knowledge to all kinds of garments and start to upcycle your clothes.

Crochet is a handicraft through which you can create many wonderful masterpieces, using a needle, thread and a set of rules that I will teach you.
These rules are easy and simple, they need you to focus and a lot of practice.

In my classes, I teach drawing, sketching, watercolor, acrylic painting, and fundamental art techniques step by step. My main focus is building a strong artistic foundation — understanding form, perspective, light and shadow, composition, and color theory in a clear and simple way.

I believe that good art starts with strong basics. That’s why I give my students solid technical knowledge while keeping lessons enjoyable, relaxed, and motivating. I break complex concepts into easy, practical exercises so you can see real progress from the first lessons.

I have 7 years of academic art school training and a 5-year Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, which gives me a strong background in perspective, structure, and visual thinking.

I work with both kids and adults and create personalized lesson plans for each student depending on their goals — whether it’s learning fundamentals, improving technique, preparing a portfolio, or simply enjoying art as a hobby.

My goal is not only to teach technique, but to build confidence, creativity, and a genuine love for drawing.

For adult beginners: Mastering the machine and making your first accessories (Complete sewing manual, Sewing practical accessories).

For experienced enthusiasts: Mastering tailoring and luxury finishes (Pattern making, The art of hemming, All about bias binding).

For eco-conscious individuals: Learn to transform and repair (Mending clothes, Projects with fabric scraps).

Fashion design encompasses everything from the initial concept to its execution in fabric. In this course, we will review the entire process, from the initial planning stages, including research into references, silhouettes, and so on, to the details of garment construction: pattern making, basic alterations, fabric selection and sewing techniques, as well as sewing on trims (zippers, buttons, etc.).

Ideal for people who want to learn to sew their own clothes, the course can focus on the more technical aspects (pattern making and sewing) if desired.

Fashion design can feel overwhelming when you are trying to build a portfolio, apply to university, improve your fashion projects or create your own collection. You may have strong ideas, but not know how to turn them into clear research, professional drawings, a commercial range or work that looks ready for the fashion industry.

I am an industry fashion designer with experience across womenswear, youthwear, jersey, leisurewear, casualwear, partywear, graphics, product development and commercial collection building. I currently work in supplier-side fashion design, developing trend-led product for major high-street retail. I have also worked across girlswear, boyswear, menswear, luxury swimwear and private luxury collection development for high-profile clients.

In these lessons, I can help you understand how fashion design works in the real industry. We can work on portfolio development, university portfolio preparation, trend research, customer research, mood boards, colour palettes, fabric direction, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, CADs, technical fashion drawings, range building, tech packs and final presentation.

I can also help you build your own commercial fashion design collection from concept to final outcome. This includes understanding your target customer, developing a strong design direction, creating a balanced range, refining silhouettes, choosing colours and fabrics, and presenting your work in a way that feels polished, current and professional.

My main specialism is womenswear and youth-market fashion, especially trend-led product for teenage to young adult customers. I can also support projects across girlswear, boyswear, menswear and swimwear, helping you understand how design changes depending on age range, customer, fit, fabric, price point and brand direction.

My teaching style is friendly, practical and honest. We will look at your current level, your goals and what your work needs in order to improve. The aim is to help you gain confidence, develop stronger ideas and create fashion work that feels ready for university, internships, placements, graduate roles or your own brand.
