Instructor's Courses

Hey I am Tanja, 32 years young and a freelance illustrator since 2013. I have been working with a lot of german magazine publishers, I illustrated books, greeting cards and more. Also I have been teaching a lot of different classes in the last seven years - working with children, older people, creative newbies and teaching painting partys gave me a lot of experience in creating class concepts for beginners. And I love teaching. Hope to see you in my classes some time.
