Luiza ist eine außergewöhnliche Lehrerin, die mit viel Begeisterung und Wissen unterrichtet. Ihre Leidenschaft ist ansteckend und motiviert, die eigene Kreativität zu erkunden. Besonders beeindruckend fand ich, wie sie es schafft, ihr Farbkonzept einfach und verständlich zu vermitteln. Der Kursinhalt ist abwechslungsreich und inspirierend für ein besseres Verständnis der eigenen Farbwelt. Ich habe nicht nur viel über Aquarelltechnik gelernt, sondern einige interessante Farbpaletten gefunden.
