Reconnect with Yourself Through Drawing
Who My Creative Classes are For
Drawing is more than technique —
let it become a tool for inner exploration.
Whether you’re just beginning or coming back to art after years of silence, I offer gentle structure and thoughtful guidance so you can move from copying the outside world to expressing something that feels truly your own.
I work with:
Adults who feel tempted to engage in creative activities but never fully allowed themselves to
Beginners who want patient, honest guidance without pressure
Creative souls who feel stuck in perfectionism or self-doubt
Anyone longing for a calm, focused space to work with their hands and reconnect
No performance. No perfection. Just space to slow down, explore, and make work that feels real.
Drawing is a way of perceiving the world with attention.
It asks you to see what is truly there — not what you assume, not what you think it should look like. In this way, drawing becomes a practice of connecting with your own truth.
At the same time, it turns you inward. By slowing down and observing carefully, you begin to notice not only the world around you, but also your own reactions, preferences, and perceptions.
Drawing becomes both a way of seeing — and a way of knowing yourself.
Everyone who feels a creative pull can explore drawing.
We are naturally creative — your unique perception is waiting to take shape on paper. These sessions are about giving that curiosity space, slowing down, and letting your hand and eye reconnect with your inner world.
Find Your Way
Practice is the path to learning, but the real magic happens when you meet your insecurities with patience and self-compassion. Each session is tailored to your needs.
I am here to guide you
As a teacher, I am here to guide you. I will share a variety of creative exercises and the mindset that helped many of my students before.
Choose the path that works best for you. This is your journey.
What We Explore:
Blind and intuitive drawing exercises that build trust in your hand and perception
Slowing down and observing without immediately judging or correcting
Letting go of finished results in favor of honest process
Cultural and artistic references that expand how you see and think about images
Tone, light, and spatial awareness — introduced when they support your expression
Reflection between sessions to deepen your personal practice
Each session responds to the group and the moment. I guide intuitively, offering exercises and references that meet you where you are — while gently building confidence and skill over time.
The deeper transformation happens in the relationship you develop with drawing between our meetings.
Benefits
Exploring your creativity is a form of growth. It’s an opportunity to express your vision through your hands and to engage fully with the present moment. Allow yourself the simple, rewarding gift of making.

Q&A’s
-
These sessions are for anyone feeling disconnected from their creativity or burnt out by everyday demands. You don’t need to be an artist — just someone who enjoys creating and wants to reconnect with their imagination. I offer a calm, supportive space where introspection is welcomed, the process is respected, and your curiosity can guide the way.

The starting point of my teaching approach is based on the book of Betty Edwards “Drawing with the Right Side of the Brain”. Bridging the gap between the conscious mind and the subconscious way of perceiving the world is shown directly in the practice of drawing. I draw inspiration from the book “The Artist’s Way” by Julia Cameron and my own experience in daily journaling and art practice. On top of that, both in my teaching practice and in my artistic endeavours, I am inspired by the writings of John Ruskin: a theorist, passionate about drawing, art and architecture.
In the lessons, you will experiment with a lot of short exercises that will show you how your brain is trying to “trick you” when you draw from observation. We will explore your creative dreams and step-by-step help you to “unlock” and nourish your inner creative. We will encourage a joyful and mindful practice, where you can let go of your old patterns and practice being present in the moment. Additionally, I offer linocut workshops: for those who crave a hands-on tactile experience.
As an academic teacher, I bring my experience in teaching design and drawing to the table.

I am always open to discussions on art, perception and the psychological aspects in the context of drawing and visual perception. As a designer, a passionate academic teacher and a beginning artist, my head is full of references and books I can share with you. Many students visit to simply get inspired in their process by our conversations.
If your dream is to heal and grow creatively: this is your time.
Giulia about the Drawing lessons
“Kaya is friendly and talented. She connects with people really well and can guide you through your journey with compassion […].
I needed guidance in finding my inner child, to accept “mistakes” and transform them into playful exercises. No judgement, no pressure, laughs and connection is what Kaya gives every time. Totally worth it!”.

I had a great drawing lesson with Kaya; it unlocked some incredible resources for me to foster my creativity and to look at the drawing act from a fresh perspective. Highly recommended!

Kaya is a teacher who encourages creative thinking and provides guidance when needed. She's passionate about teaching, and that's reflected in her teaching style.

Kaya heeft me in een paar maanden tijd zoveel geleerd over compositie, perspectief en observatie dat ik merk dat m'n tekeningen in korte tijd zoveel beter zijn geworden.
