Trusted teacher: Hi there! I’m Anastasia. If you’re into fine arts, be it your hobby or future career, I’m here to help! You may be one of the following: - A fine arts student looking to get additional guidance - A recent graduate looking to further hone their skills - A working artist facing a new challenge or an unfamiliar style - A self-taught artist looking for more academic training - Or just a creative person wishing to turn their vision into reality. I usually prefer the following format: 1. You send in your request 2. We connect to discuss it 3. We begin our lessons Our lessons are 2 hours long. If you’re a beginner and have no background in fine arts at all, we may have to cover some theory first. If you’re interested, do let me know. Or if you have something different in mind – just ask, and I’ll do my best to meet your specific needs. I can promise you my full attention and a very competitive rate. Nowadays I teach the most of lessons to adults and have successfully prepared students for different art schools and colleges. The classes are very interactive. The main idea is not to lecture you or do the work for you, but rather help you tap into your creative self and arm you with the right tools to extract your unique ideas! I try to combine in my teaching process teaching methods from brilliant masters I have met in my life in art colleges and Academy I study in (Pjankov, Dergunov, Bistrov, Denderina) and also from famous Old Teachers of Art (Soviet Art Masters: Crimov, Chistjakov, Kurkov, and European Art School Masters: Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Caravaggio ). When I teach , I do put myself in my students’ shoes. Also I use MY own art experience as an active fine artist who has faced different topical issues, so that YOUR works can suit modern art contexts.

Trusted teacher: My name is Anita, and I am a neurodivergent interdisciplinary artist. I combine traditional and unconventional teaching methods with an innovative approach, adapted to the fast-paced era we live in, where attention spans can be short. My teaching integrates principles of psychology to better understand each student’s unique needs and aspirations. My goal is to nurture visionary children who have strong foundational values and a humble sense of self. I believe that true artistic mastery comes from human excellence. Also, in this way, students develop true self-confidence by evaluating their success based on personal progress rather than comparing themselves to others. This course is especially recommended for neurodivergent children (with Autism Level 1 - Asperger's Syndrome, ADHD, OCD, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Hypersensitivity, and Anxiety) with multiple interests who struggle to choose, focus on, and manage various subjects. It helps develop both technique and discipline, enabling them to navigate multiple creative fields—essentially putting their eggs in several baskets while honing the skills necessary for diverse career opportunities in an uncertain job market. The program encourages a generalist mindset, promoting versatility without compromising creative integrity. Students will learn to refine their Zoom In/Zoom Out perspective, gaining the ability to see both the bigger picture and the finer details of any subject. The program's structure guides the individuals through three essential phases: Exploration Phase–Presentations, visual games, and foundational lessons introduce students to various disciplines, helping them discover their interests. Development Phase–They start defining their creative goals, practicing their skills, and trying out various artistic approaches. Mastery Phase - With a clear direction, students focus on long-term goals, whether as brand-focused professionals, university students, or future educators. Disciplines covered include architecture, painting, illustration, concept design (especially for gaming), traditional animation, digital art, children's book illustration, film, creative writing, and music (the art of songwriting). A Purposeful, Transparent Approach I work closely with each student, providing honest yet supportive evaluations to help identify their strengths. My goal is to guide serious and passionate learners and not to mislead families into unnecessary expenses. I strive to be straightforward in a respectful and encouraging manner, communicating if a child may not be suited for this path. A Valuable Investment in Thinking & Creativity Even if a student ultimately chooses a non-artistic career, this course fosters critical and creative thinking, which are essential skills for any field. The knowledge gained here is never wasted; it’s an investment in adaptability, innovation, and problem-solving abilities that transcend the arts. PROGRAM OVERVIEW Course & Workshop – Studio Art & Theory Sessions (60–180 min) ■ First Session – A Complimentary Introduction The first session offers an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a collaborative relationship. ■ Online classes They will primarily focus on theory and presentation or homework/portfolio reviews. Each session lasts 30-40 minutes, followed by 15-20 minutes for questions and answers. These sessions are recorded, allowing students to revisit the content whenever they wish, ensuring long-term access to valuable insights. Throughout the course, we track progress, examining both strengths and areas for growth. ■ Progress Evaluation and Personalized Feedback • Monthly Evaluation Files An evaluation file will be provided each month, summarizing the child’s progress, highlighting what they have learned, and identifying areas to improve. This file is printed, and the child will need a designated folder to store these evaluations. • Personality Profiling A personalized profile will be created for each student, outlining their traits, preferences, and potential areas for exploration. Together, we will set small, temporary goals to work toward a larger, more defined purpose. This profile will be revisited and updated annually to reflect the student's growth and changing needs during their developmental phase. ■ Parent Support Program A structured, phased program is designed specifically for parents, with regular updates (every 3 months) that outline: • Exploration Phase: Discovering interests and potentials. • Clarification Phase: Understanding immediate goals for the upcoming weeks. • Commitment Phase: Focusing on long-term pursuits over several months. This modular approach ensures that the program evolves with the child’s development without overwhelming families with an all-at-once structure. ■ Rewards and Additional Activities Students earn symbolic rewards for their achievements, reflecting various aspects of their learning journey. Additionally, upon mutual agreement, I can offer post-session baking workshops (or on weekends) with healthy recipes and customized meal options (taking into account specific dietary needs or intolerances), reinforcing the importance of self-care and nutrition. ■ Homework and Scheduling Homework will be personalized to fit the student’s schedule, considering both school and extracurricular activities, as well as their personal productivity style. Some of them may be more analytical and observant, while others are naturally more productive. I believe that productivity can bloom at any stage, and my goal is to avoid a “factory mindset.” Reflective moments are as crucial as those focused on tangible output. ■ Recommendations I offer customized recommendations for books, movies, documentaries, artists, and art styles, ensuring that each resource is tailored to the student's personal interests and developmental stage to maximize engagement and understanding. ■ Introducing Rhetorics and Dialectics (friendly definitions for complex topics - included in Commitment Phase) Rhetorics, particularly oratory, along with dialectics (the art of argumentation), are essential tools for expressing ideas clearly and persuasively. These skills are important not only in speech and writing but also in visual arts. They help create overall coherence by ensuring that every element of a project—whether it’s a painting, sculpture, or multimedia presentation—conveys a well-structured message. ■ Special Focus: Empowering Neurodiverse Learners In my teaching practice, I place a strong emphasis on engaging neurodiverse children through a range of visual and auditory games that stimulate multiple areas of intelligence. These activities include: • Pattern Recognition: Exercises that encourage students to identify and predict patterns, sharpening their analytical and problem-solving skills. • Visual and Auditory Memory Games: Interactive tasks designed to boost both visual and auditory memory, ensuring that information is effectively retained. • Synesthetic Activities: Creative exercises that blend sensory experiences—such as pairing colors with sounds—to enhance perceptual awareness. • Multiple Intelligences: Tailored tasks that address various types of intelligence, including spatial, logical, musical, kinesthetic, and interpersonal skills. ■ A Personal Touch on Wellbeing Understanding the importance of nutrition, I offer healthy, ready-to-eat meals for students who might miss a meal before or after school. Drawing from my experiences with nutritional challenges during adolescence, I know how important it is to support overall well-being. This small gesture is part of my commitment to care for the whole individual—mind, body, and spirit—ensuring no one is left hungry while pursuing their creative and academic goals.

Trusted teacher: Imagine yourself holding a pencil or paintbrush, sitting in front of a blank sheet of paper, ready to explore the world of art and realize your creativity by correctly drawing the four facial features. If you aspire to become a skilled face artist, this engaging tutorial is exactly what you need. This course is specifically designed for those who want to acquire the basic skills for drawing facial features professionally. You will discover the magic of art and learn the essential fundamentals for drawing and rendering eyes, noses, mouths, and ears with precision and artistic flair. This educational journey will be an exciting exploration of fine details and advanced techniques that will help you achieve stunning drawings. Objectives: - Acquire the skills necessary to draw the four facial features correctly and professionally. - Understand the details of the structure and anatomy of the eye, nose, mouth and ear. - Developing the ability to focus and observe details accurately in drawing the face. - Ability to use appropriate techniques for light, shadows, and hollows in the face. - Achieving balance and harmony in drawing facial features and maintaining correct proportions. Axes: The educational course in your hands is 59 minutes long and divided into 12 lessons as follows: In the first lesson, we will quickly review the parts that make up the eye. You will also learn how and where to place the eye in its appropriate place in the facial space. You will also learn about the relationship between the eyelid and the eye and how to draw the eyelid correctly and in a three-dimensional manner. In the second lesson, we will review the parts of the eye in detail, or more precisely, a detailed explanation of the anatomy of the eye. You will also learn how to form the eyebrows and eyelashes correctly. In the third lesson, we will begin the practical part. Through five specific steps, you will learn how to draw an eye correctly, from the first planning stage until reaching the final details. In the fourth lesson, we will begin explaining the nose. You will learn how to place the nose in a cube shape and what the purpose behind that is. You will also learn how the shape of the nose changes with the movement of the human head and the angle from which we view the nose. In the fifth lesson, you will learn in detail how to dissect the nose and the parts that make it up. The importance of this is that your knowledge of anatomy strengthens your vision and perception of details that actually exist and almost protrude from under the skin. In Lesson 6, you will learn how to divide the nose into small surfaces. This is because the nose is a complex shape, and it is important to train your eyes to simplify the shape of the nose while drawing it. In the seventh lesson, we will begin the practical part. Through five specific steps, you will learn how to draw a nose correctly, from the first planning stage until reaching the final details. In Lesson 8, you will learn how to build the basic shapes of the mouth. You will also learn anatomically what muscles form the mouth area and help us control lip movement. In Lesson 9, you will learn what parts make up the mouth from the outside and the area surrounding it. You will also learn how to see the roundness of the mouth, the overlapping lines of the lips, and many other details. In the tenth lesson, we will begin the practical part. Through five specific steps, you will learn how to draw a mouth correctly, from the first planning stage until reaching the final details stage. In the eleventh lesson, you will learn all the details related to the ear, such as its relationship to the head from all directions and the parts that make up the ear. You will also learn a nice trick to simplify the internal details of the ear, which many artists consider complex and difficult. You will also learn the relationship of light and shadow to these details so that they are easy to draw. In the twelfth and final lesson, we will begin the practical part. Through five specific steps, you will learn how to draw the ear correctly, from the first planning stage until reaching the final details. I am waiting for you with great enthusiasm so that we can start this enjoyable educational journey together.

Trusted teacher: Welcome to a new approach to painting, where traditional techniques merge with contemporary artistic expression. I'm Naomi , an experienced visual artist, here to guide you on a journey to discover your own style and painting process. In the world of painting, there's a misconception that technique is something old-fashioned, reserved for realistically replicating the world around us. I invite you to let go of this notion and join me in exploring how contemporary painters, including abstract artists, use technique to create unique and powerful works. My lessons are designed for adults who want to look beyond traditional painting courses. We'll start with exercises that encourage free expression, almost in a childlike manner, without focusing on the end result. This process often reveals unexpected talents and leads to authentic artistic discoveries. I strongly believe in recognizing and developing each student's unique qualities. With me, you'll learn not just the techniques applied by contemporary artists, but also how to use them to find and refine your own artistic voice. There's no such thing as good or bad art; the biggest barriers are often fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Together, we'll overcome these obstacles, with enjoyment in the creative process as our guide. By the end of the course, you'll leave with a painting that reflects the quality of professional work, created with materials that aren't necessarily expensive, but are essential for serious work in today's art world. I'll provide the materials for the first lesson; afterwards, students will be encouraged to purchase their own. Whether you're looking for individual guidance or prefer learning in a group setting, I offer both personal and group lessons. Group lessons have a fixed structure, while individual guidance is completely tailored to your desires and talents. Are you ready to elevate your painting skills to a new level and develop your own style that resonates with the contemporary art world? Join my course and let your creativity flow.

Leia is a super knowledgeable and personable teacher. She tries to understand what are your goals when trying to improve your drawing skills and adapts the lessons to help you with it. After a couple of lessons I already started thinking differently when approaching a blank canvas and it has been really helpful for me when trying to portray what I’ve got in mind.
