“Thank you Laly for the most inspirational course I’ve ever taken... I cannot even put into words the growth as an artist this course has evoked in me... in my heart... soul... and mind. It truly does help you find your inner light and allows that light to fill each piece you create.”

“The serenity of this course is singing me home to myself.”

“Two things really surprised me. First was the encaustic inspired multilayering of acrylic gel medium. I would have never dared to do such a thing, had I not seen it so expertly shown in your video. Now I love it and will use this in my works in other ways. The other thing was the step in the last lesson when we do a reverse layering to take some of the layers back off for rediscovering surprises. That was amazing! I would have never discovered that on my own.”

“Laly possesses a childlike sense of wonder inside her that comes through in her classes, and she helps you soften your eyes and open your heart whilst learning and creating meaningful pieces. I so enjoyed Layers of Light and will take it again and again because each time I do the lessons, I find a new dawn.”

“The Layers of Light course was a magical journey filled with discovery. Laly’s passionate, gentle, humble energy was delightful and infectious. I loved that I could do each lesson at my own pace, there was no rush to finish at a particular time. The encouragement, the inspiration and creativity shown in the community was wonderful.”

“Laly, I had an extraordinary time pushing myself again to learn new ways of creating art. I’ve been so blessed to be a part of Layers of light, which I have reviewed over and over and always find a little something new to inspire me. Thank you again for leading us all into new territory where we’ve found out little but important victories.”

“A magical journey, a soulful, safe nest for all those inner feelings. Laly has the most beautiful aura and teaching manner. Allowing you to create meaningful, personal art within a class. I found memories both joyful and sorrowful, long tucked away, appearing in my art. She shows you how to ‘shine’ in the loveliest of ways. Her lessons are clear and beautifully shot. You cannot but feel a connection with Laly. Although there are many others in the course you are each special. A friend found though never met. Thank you for crossing my path and enriching my creative spirit.”

“Not only did I learn some really beautiful techniques in your classes like layering and your lovely color palette but also the sweet, patient, quiet way to approach art. Your calm, sequential, organized lessons and beautiful videos were a joy to watch.”

“I was completely mesmerized when I came across Layers of Light! It has inspired me, taught me new techniques and helped me evolve as an artist. I was able to ‘connect the dots’ if that makes any sense! Watching the classes feels like a mystical experience I can’t get enough of! You truly have a gift for teaching and I will be eternally grateful!”

“There is something in this class that takes you away to places inside you where your dreams come from. It is soft, it is gentle, yet the work that is produced is powerful and honest. The participant learns to observe their surroundings and look inward to bring out strong statement pieces of beautiful art. Each lesson is refreshing and enjoyable – you so look forward to taking each and every lesson. Every session is different and challenges you, but they are not hard – the challenge comes in having an open sense of curiosity and playfulness. There is a systematic approach that is well organized and patiently given.

“I have grown by leaps and bounds since finding Laly and working my way through Layers of Light. Laly is the most informational and inspiring teacher I’ve ever worked with.”

“I am so enthralled and excited that I am almost forgetting to breathe. Whenever I work on something that you have directed Laly, I just feel so comfortable. Hard to describe but totally wonderful experience. I have never done anything like this before.”

“I learned from watching you Laly, to slow down and relax, to truly hear the “calls”. I learned so much from you, gathering my papers and fibers to have a good start. A start that can be changed in a heart beat, running around, finding other remnants that might work also. It’s downright exciting at times. I found a lot of patience, in your teachings for myself personally. Your “ways” are so PALPABLE...it is like you were right there with me. Your style and “senses” profoundly lead us to “seeing and feeling” deeply, and wondrously. Your classes, your words, your educating skills remain and linger wherever I roam in my work now. I am grateful and thank you immensely.”

“Your class has helped me understand the process of layering. I can paint in any medium from inks to acrylics and follow the same process of making layers. Also I learnt a lot about what colors to use.”

“This class is amazing. I learned more about myself than I thought possible. I have been inspired in too many ways to mention. I find myself going for it because of many techniques that can change it later. I see the changes in all the mediums that I dabble in. My favorite where the collage with the photos, the burlap technique and the series of elements. I highly recommended Laly.”

“Your class has been quite transformative in how I think about and approach my art, helping me be braver and more experimental, and worry a little less about the ‘end result’. I’ve seen quite a few online tutorials now and I think your style of teaching and the beautifully shot, well lit, clear, inspirational and informative videos are the best, BY MILES!
I adore the support and encouragement we get from each other in the Facebook group, but best of all is your wonderful attention to our needs, your speed of response, and the feeling you give each of us that we matter and that you’re giving us your personal attention. I don’t know how you do it, but I’m so very grateful I found you and your wonderful class.”

“I took your advice and just kept working the layers, giving the piece a chance to become. I can’t wait to reveal the rest of the piece. Thanks for your encouragement.”

“My thing is usually little books so I have been surprised by how much I learned about layering and the use of different media in your classes. I’ve also learned not to force the composition but to let it speak to me from within. Now I’m taking all of that back to my little books!”

“Your beautiful work, gentle encouraging way of showing and teaching, with so many options and delightful insight to the deeper meaning we may find in the journey as you have done - combined with real information about mixed media layering; techniques, and the process, all this combined into so many wonderful projects to explore - has opened up a whole new world for me. The quality of your videos is such that I will never tire of watching them. The music is comforting. I can always see what you are doing clearly, and you explain it all so well!

I have not stopped since I began working under your instruction. This has touched a cord with me and the nature of how I like to work. As for growing my skills, I think the most important thing I took away is to trust myself more in trying new things- like adding my own writings to my work. Also, I love the way you talked about the mystery of partially hidden things when layering. It took me out of my “perfection mode” of thinking every little thing had to be apparent and clearly seen.
I want to know when you add more classes. I will be there!!!”
