Tech Training Testimonial

-
It could be pouring down with rain with hurricanes and tornadoes lashing at my front door, but I don´t care because I´ve got a website which is absolutely perfect for my business and I couldn´t have done it without the much appreciated help of Karla Darocas.

If you need a website (and if you´re in business, you DO need a website!), then I urge you to look no further than Karla. You simply don´t need to spend hundreds or thousands of euros getting a web designer to create a site which you´re not fully happy with and having to wait for the web designer to answer your calls when you need something changing (it´s happened to me!). 

 After just a few hours sitting in Karla´s nice warm office, I can now control my own site and change things as I need to. If I get stuck, I know that Karla will be there to help.

 Karla listened to what I wanted to achieve and suggested a suitable layout, pointing out all the benefits, then she set about designing a fantastic banner logo for me.  Then Karla showed me how to resize photos and upload them onto the site. 

 I don´t think I´m the easiest person to teach but she was very patient and answered my questions without any techno babble and jargon.

  “A fascinating lecture from Karla on 17th Century Spanish portraits. As ever the listener learnt as much about Spanish history as Spanish art so making these lectures a must for anyone keen to learn more about Spain as their chosen home. Karla is a great fan of the Spanish painter, Velasquez, and by the end of the lecture we were in agreement. We were shown how Velasquez’ style evolved over time and was shaped by the influences of the 17th Century Spanish court he lived in and by the developments in painting, especially from Italy where he studied in Naples. Like his contemporaries he began by showing his mastery of painting the textiles his sitters were wearing. However, at his height his skill was much more about showing the soul of his subject which is so affecting today as they gaze out at us hundreds of years later. Karla took us through the work of several other Spanish artists of the time and it was here in particular we learnt so much about the fashions of the 17th Centur

"I learned so much about the social and economic history of this part of Spain and how the architectural styles developed and were implemented using existing buildings over the centuries. Karla brought it all to life. I loved Karla's talks because they are so animated and enthusiastic and full of interesting and amusing anecdotes. I definitely recommend her."  * Michelle Johnson ADD YOUR EMAIL to Receive Invitations & Updates * emails never shared or sold! * indicates required Email Address *

BOOK REVIEW - Spanish DOGS - History Book

-

"It is timely indeed that Karla should write a book re-evaluating the role of dogs in Spanish art and culture.  This current Covid lockdown has led to many of us deciding that we need dogs in our lives for companionship and for exercise.  Yet again, the role of the dog in our society is being looked at afresh.  Karla’s book traces how the symbiotic relationship between human and dog goes back at least to Neolithic times.  There is much evidence such as the careful and dignified burial of owner and dog together in many ancient cultures to suggest that dogs were, as Karla observes, seen as part wild, part human and part divine.   Some ancients saw dogs as having healing powers leading to dogs being laid on to the bodies of sick people or to lick wounds.  Small dogs were bred to be companions to children whereas 90 kg mastiffs in armour performed a valuable role in battle.  The Romans at least were not averse to dog sacrifice to ensure a good harvest.   In many ways Karla demonstrate
