About the final project for: Fashion Design: Painting and Embroidering Garments
Embroidery and Painting on garments
“What a joy! It has been spectacular to be able to share with you my technical knowledge of embroidery and hand painting, but what has most moved me is that you have had the opportunity to discover that there is more than a piece made by hand. I hope that this course has been motivation to use your creativity as therapy, as a means of expression and why not, as a means of income as it is in my case. I can say that I don't work a single day of my life because what I do, I do pleasantly with love. I managed to turn a passion, a hobby, into my main means of income; permeating all that this means to me. By creating with love, passion and dedication, I have made many people discover what I want to convey in what they buy. Don't be afraid to be wrong, grab a piece of cloth, water all your materials on a table, put your favorite music, with a moodboard in front, let yourself go and create, create and create, until you can find and transmit your voice through of what you produce.

Your art must carry a piece of your soul and have personality on its own. Do not hesitate to contact me directly if you want a guide, advice or any questions you have about what I talk about, each of my students will be an inspiration to take my art to another level. I can't wait to see your final project and be able to feed together on the learning and conclusions of my students. Be sure to share your discoveries on the forum. Thank you for trusting my talent. ”
