Reviews

"I don't even know where to begin. If you have the opportunity to make art with Iria, TAKE IT." - Marianne

"Iria's class connected me to exactly what I was feeling. It fixed something in me. My art also felt like it gave something back to me. Personal mythology is key to her drawings and her process helped us navigate the inner connections of our mind. Thank you again to Iria and Geetika for making this so accessible." - Jayee

"I enjoyed this creative experience guided by Iria. I was flat and lacking creativity coming into the session, but surprised self and created a piece like no other. Enjoyed Iria's energy, pace and was amused by seeing her in the backdrop of her studio." - Lisa

"Iria is a very knowledgeable teacher who can teach you in a very practical, flexible and at same time precise way. You will see the life of a talented artist and you will feel motivated to continue with your own projects." - Adriana
