    The online lessons are every day, Monday to Saturday 17: 00-19: 00 (Greece time UTC +3). You can participate in any lesson you want (every day, once a week, etc). The precondition for participation is to have a smartphone connected to a wifi network. How it works: Before the beginning of the lesson, you must have sent me your intention to participate or the photo of the icon you are working on. I will call you via the Internet, only with sound, not with video. I will give you instructions and I will make corrections on the photo of the icon that you sent me. You will see the correction process live on your screen and after our conversation, I will send you the correction you saw on your screen to apply it to your icon. If you want to ask something during the lesson, you can send me a text message via the internet or a new photo of your icon in the new status, so I will be able to help you continue, to answer your questions and to correct live as I said before.No previous experience is needed to participate in the course. The lesson is private in a group.

    MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
    I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen. I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist. I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns. In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on. You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns. Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

    Art and Creativity lessons for kids (drawing, painting, crafts)
    Painting works as a different kind of language for kids. In an art lesson, a child learns (according to their age and character) how to use this language better, to express themselves more precisely. Many kids are hiding a great artist inside them, but art lessons are not just for gifted kids. And, although there are many great artists who got inspired by children's drawing, the goal is not to train children as an artists, but help them become more aware of the means of expression that are in their disposal , which will later make them more balanced adults, who are aware of the way art narrates the history of our world. This is achieved by familiarizing kids with a variety of techniques and artists. Since the lessons are private, there can be a lot of flexibility with that.

    If you are interested in learning more about Quran and Hadith studies, you can check out online Quran and hadees and tafseer
    Quran and Hadith are two of the most important sources of Islamic teachings and guidance. They are often studied together in various courses and programs. Here is a brief overview of what they are and how they differ: - Quran is the holy book of Islam, containing the words of Allah as revealed to Prophet Muhammad through the angel Gabriel. Quran is considered the direct, unaltered, and infallible word of God. Quran has 114 chapters (surahs) and over 6,000 verses (ayahs) that cover various topics such as faith, worship, law, morality, history, and science. Quran is written in classical Arabic and has a unique style and structure. Quran is recited and memorized by Muslims in its original language, and has been translated into many other languages. Quran is also the subject of various disciplines of scholarship, such as exegesis (tafsir), recitation (qira'at), and hermeneutics. - Hadith refers to the sayings, actions, and approvals of Prophet Muhammad, as reported by his companions and later scholars. Hadith serves as a secondary source of Islamic teachings after the Quran, and provides guidance on how to implement the Quranic principles in various situations. Hadith has various collections and classifications, depending on the authenticity and reliability of the narrators and the chains of transmission (isnad). Hadith is also the basis of various fields of Islamic sciences, such as jurisprudence (fiqh), theology (kalam), ethics (akhlaq), and history (sirah).
