SINCE 2013
I am pleased to introduce myself, I am Eva Cano Ristolainen, founder of Createva. My profession is interior designer and event decorator, besides having a passion for abstract art painting. Since I was a child, I have always stood out for my creativity, energy and enthusiasm. At home, I was called “restless ass” because of my incessant curiosity.
When I became a mother, my mind was filled with new creative ideas and I decided it was time to share them with others. That’s how the Createva project was born in 2013: a creative and event decoration workshop that would bring together different craftswomen and artists with diverse creative skills.
We form a team of workshop leaders passionate about creativity, who enjoy teaching workshops and transmitting their knowledge from humility, affection, patience and, above all, passion for what they do. For a workshop leader, there is no greater reward than seeing how their students experience the satisfaction of the creative process, whether sewing, knitting, painting or making craft.
We also seek to expand our team of artisans who master some creative technique.
