Sonja Soyer

Being part of Sonja’s art classes has been a transformative experience. She doesn’t just teach painting techniques — though she does that brilliantly — she helps us reconnect with the joy of creating. Through her guidance, we explore a wide range of tools and methods, all of which enrich our personal artistic expression.

What truly sets Sonja apart is how she helps us shift from the rigid, academic approach many of us were taught in school to a more playful, modern, and intuitive style. Her classes are filled with encouragement and discovery, where every brushstroke becomes part of a larger journey toward finding our own voice as artists.

Thanks to her, I’ve not only grown technically but also emotionally and creatively. I’m incredibly grateful for the confidence and freedom she’s helped unlock in my art.

The Wingwave session with Sonja was a true surprise and liberation at the same time. She gave me clear instructions and explanations before we began, gently guided me into my topic and held the space through emotion. It was amazing how gently the knot was untied and neutrality set in. The redirection of thought was quickly established and was enormously liberating without having to talk about everything in detail. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience and the loving conversation.

The portfolio coaching with Sonja Soyer was an inspiring and enriching experience. With great creativity and a sharp eye for individual strengths, she helped me present my work in a professional and compelling way. Her approach is practical, motivating, and at the same time refreshingly innovative. I especially appreciate her ability to distill complex ideas into clear concepts while strengthening my personal style.

Highly recommended for anyone who wants to take their portfolio to the next level!

Sonja is very creative, knowledgeable and passionate about teaching art. She teaches with kindness and is very open-minded. Her atelier is very cosy and immerses you in two hours of wonderful painting.

Love the supportive and creative atmosphere of the classes and community that Sonja nurtures. We are in a good place to take risks in our art which pays off in the best possible ways!

Sonja and her atelier and art lessons have been a true enjoyment. Taking part last summer in her art breakfasts was like traveling to a hidden exotic island and unleashing the senses to explore and discover new horizons of creativity.

She is a teacher that guides you to find your inspiration by making suggestions, teaching techniques and new points of view and not imposing final products. Through her teaching style participants create unique works according to each one’s personality. My son, 12 years old, also attends her lessons for children and always comes home with a spark in his eyes wanting to tell me about everything they worked on.

I’m very happy to have found Sonja after moving to Luxembourg as it really helped us adapt and feel more at home here. We highly recommend her, she’s lovely 💖

Sonja is an amazing art teacher, the woman with so big heart and sharp brain. Her sessions are not only about learning new skills and master the tools but as well about going deep into your creative part and letting go your potential. Her studio has is a real atelier, it helps opening the mind and let the hands work.

Really recommended. My teen kid is into it as well.

Do yourself a favour and sign up for one of Sonja’s classes! I had never done an art class before and firmly believed I couldn’t create anything resembling art. Sonja takes you through a playful, interactive process of learning that releases the inner artist in everyone.

If you are looking for a safe space to explore your artistic side – this is it!

At Sonja Soyer’s art classes “finding your inner artist” is not just your cliché statement. It is an invitation to experiment with colour, with structures, with forms, with styles. A moment where you learn to let go of expectations, especially the ones you impose on yourself, and allow yourself to create; while at the same time learning bits and pieces about the history of art. Last but not least, it is a moment of shared joy with Sonja and the other participants of her classes.

I would give it 6 stars if this was an option.

Sonja’s art classes are wonderful. Not only are they a great way to meet people as an expat in Luxembourg but it is precious and needed time to engage with my creative side. The energy I take from her classes fuels me for the week!

Hi Sonja! Especially now in these bizarre times I want to thank you so much for giving us, your true followers 🙂 , advices on how to let our creative side have it’s way without restrictions and the need to be perfect! I had a lot of fun last week, trying out the “relaxed drawing” methods you are so often recommending, f.e. I draw some portraits with my eyes closed and I tell you what – I guess I will never draw portraits otherwise again! :))) And I also used the “drawing an object with a single line” technique and coloured it afterwards and I love the result. My son saw them and now he wants us to do this together – he finds the pictures totally cool 🙂 Drawing with my non-dominant hand is on my to-do-list today :))) Thank you for inspiration and help!!! 🙂
