Mélissa Fuentes
"I've watched countless tutorials to enhance my drawing and painting skills, but I often felt lost, unable to structure my progress effectively. As a devoted mom, this course breathed new life into my creativity, offering not only relaxation but also the opportunity to flourish as an artist. It awakened a dormant passion within me, fueling my drive to explore and develop my own unique style.
If you find yourself yearning for structure, motivation, and a transformative experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Anastasiia's course."

Nehal Rathod
"There is a term we Indians use called "GURU." GURU means much more than a teacher; it's someone who helps you find yourself rather than just teaching skills, like a teacher does.
I call Anastasiia my ART GURU. And while writing this, I am happily sobbing."

Linda Hoeningsberg
"When I signed up for Anastasiia’s course, all I knew was that I loved her paintings of natural objects like leaves and mushrooms. I had no idea I would be receiving the equivalent of a professional art school education! I learned drawing principles including perspective, shading, observing, painting, and so much more! Anastasiia generously taught us what she learned in her own art education. I cannot recommend her courses enough. They are as excellent as it gets!"
