“Lina is an amazing inspirational visual artist who expresses her vision and feelings through her art. The emotion she evokes in her work transcends culture, so much so that anyone anywhere even without any artistic background is drawn into your vision."

"Lina's art is original and emotional. It displays a deep sensibility while digging deep through the many layers of her memories. ٍSome of her work reflects the struggle between two worlds: the real enslaved world and the free world that she dreams of. The figures in her art are suffering through these transitions while penetrating the real world. I have become fascinated by the beauty of Lina's artwork".

“I was excited when I moved to a new house but at the same time overwhelmed by the empty and silent walls. The warm and vibrant colors of the artwork “Home” by Lina Faroussi gave the space life”.

"I love Lina’s talent! I love the artwork and how it translates into scarves. The quality is amazing, and I highly recommend them. Let us support living artists around the world”.

The painting that I received from Lina feels very personal to me as it is a piece of her and her journey as a woman that intersects with my journey as a woman in facing similar challenges to seek change and transformation that I desire in my life and self-growth. Truly inspiring".

I have this beautiful artwork "Catch the Moment" , in my living room, where I can see it all the time. And the beauty is that every time I look at it I see something new- and a new experience unfolds!!

I picked this painting "Dreamy Woman" to gift it to my wife, I loved the color, the texture and the oriental elements I found it in the painting, such a beautiful piece of art. but mostly loved the "dreamy woman", hoping each woman to achieve her dream. Thank you, Lina, for producing beautiful art. we love your art.

The paintings workshops with Lina, rekindled my childhood dreams and hobby of painting. It was a very friendly environment and Lina's teaching style was clear and easy to follow. I enjoyed her art critiques and learned a lot from them! Thank you Lina,

"Amazing workshop led by the most kind and creative artist Lina! You will be surprised after you start how your brain will allow you to produce a totally new and unique idea. This is because of the process of mentoring that Lina adopts and the critique that Lina provides."

" What I liked most, that Lina saw us through to the end and for believing in us. During the 4 weeks, I learned the blending technique & how to paint with acrylic which I was not comfortable with it before Lina's class."

"I liked most Lina's instant feedback on our work! I learnt how to work with the small or big brush strokes, by applying the wrist or the elbow movement. It was very informative and a pleasant opportunity to meet other Art lovers".

Thank you for helping me through this entire process. You have been such an inspiration and a great mentor to have. I love how you show us the brushstroke techniques and how to achieve a certain object and or texture, cannot begin to thank you enough for rekindling my passion and love of art again. You are kind and patient, You teach in such an effortless demeanor, and just the way you are, your energy and smile make the world of a difference!

It was my first experience attending a painting workshop. I was not expecting to learn about colors, brushes, techniques all at once, and most of all, learning how to analyze paintings (Value, texture, etc.). Lina is so very creative, inspirational and patient. She unlocked my creativity and her connections and messages helped me a lot with my painting skills.

Thank you for everything! Amazing class amazing instructor and coach.

I had the pleasure to attend with you as instructor. You definitely are a professional artist and experienced art coach. I enjoyed attending your weekly classes , and always looked forward to the next class I was pleasantly surprised to see my progress and the improvement in my understanding of the techniques you so encouraged by guiding me hands on .. Your style of coaching motivated me to take risks ..observe , learn and focus on finding my own artistic style. You help create a relaxed atmosphere where everyone in the class enjoys the creative process. I always felt relaxed and calm during your classes and I am looking forward to join in your upcoming art classes. Thank you

Lina told our class that she isn't a teacher; she's a coach. But she is much more than that. She's an inspiration, a supporter and a cheerleader. Lina encourages us to do our own thing and marvels at what we accomplish. I marvel at what I've accomplished. I have taken art classes for a long time, but haven't felt the joy that I feel in these classes because I was just copying someone else's vision. But with Lina’s guidance I am learning to express my feelings and to pursue my own vision. I look forward to the calm, joy and creativity I feel in Lina's class; I can't wait for the next classes to begin.

You and your class are wonderful! I always experienced a great positive energy while I was painting in your class. I never thought that I could paint but now I’m confident to pursue painting as my main hobby. The class was like a therapy for me as I’m a new mother and also I lost my dad when we just started our class. The class helped me accept the truth and make peace with it. That worth a lot for me and I’m grateful to have this opportunity. I’ll definitely recommend this class to others.

Lina's individual-focused approach to leading novice painters has, quite frankly, been a liberating experience for me. I have discovered that I have my own style and now know how to start and work through various stages to achieve a finished painting. Lina's quiet, respectful guidance was inspiring. The setting always calm, safe and friendly. Best of all, I've taken up painting as a past time... it definitely is a meditative experience for me. I am grateful to have had such a fulfilling first art experience.

I have attended several of Lina’s abstract art classes and have always found the atmosphere relaxed, inviting, and comfortable. Lina encourages you to paint what you feel. There is no pressure in her classes, and I really like having several weeks to work on our canvases rather than trying to complete one painting a week. Lina provides suggestions and inspiration. The classes have a friendly feeling and participants are comfortable to walk around and share ideas and feedback with each other. The sessions with Lina are my first try at abstract and I have found that I feel peaceful and have experienced an easy flow to my paintings. I always look forward to the classes and have been surprised by what I can accomplish thanks to Lina's guidance and encouragement.

Lina, your classes mean a lot to me, it is like a Spa day for the soul when I walk into your classroom. My stress and anxiety levels calm down, and after 2h I feel ready to tackle the world again. For me personally, these painting sessions have been more valuable than classical therapy sessions. I guess when you are a total lefty brainiac like me, it is more beneficial to make some contact with the right side than, again, using your left side to talk and analyse. Bringing balance to my brain usage has been beneficial not only to my well-being, but also for work and other activities. Besides all the benefits, I am also thoroughly enjoying myself. You create a warm and inclusive atmosphere, and I love our groups! Everyone is supportive of each other, and I feel encouraged to challenge myself with every project. You have helped me develop my own style, quirky and colorful, and I am thrilled with my progress!
