Unleash Your Artistic Potential Today
NOT SO LONG AGO, I WAS WHERE YOU ARE NOW.
Hey there, my name is Anastasiia.
I'm a Russian-Italian watercolor artist, author, mentor for creatives and Top Teacher on Skillshare. I'm passionate about art, nature, traveling and teaching.
I've been there and I'm here to help!
I used to be a struggling artist myself and I know exactly how it feels. Fast forward to today, I have built my creative business, helped my husband leave his corporate job, and traveled in Asia for over 5 months while doing what I love: watercolor painting. I'm here to help you live a creative life on your own terms!

I received 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!"
LINDA HOENIGSBERG / VISUAL ARTIST
"MAKE ART WITH CONFIDENCE" STUDENT
Enrolling in this course was the best decision I have made this year
"Thanks to the course, I was able to improve my portfolio and create new collections to use on the products I sell online. If you're looking to monetize your art, you may be wondering if I gained any clients during or after the course. Yes, I did, and I don't believe in coincidences. This course truly changed my art journey"
ANDREIA MELO / ARTIST, PATTERN DESIGNER, COMMUNITY MANAGER - "MAKE ART WITH CONFIDENCE" 2024-25
Now I feel confident and at ease when I approach painting any subject
"My paintings have dramatically improved. Anastasiia is a very generous teacher; she doesn’t hold back or hide any information. She also provides detailed critiques and feedback on your paintings, which is incredibly helpful. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to paint with watercolor but feels a bit frightened about where to start."
NIKITA THAKUR / VISUAL ARTIST
"MAKE ART WITH CONFIDENCE" STUDENT
I am all set for my career as a nature illustrator
"This course was exactly what I was looking for to start my career as a nature illustrator. I improved my techniques and learned the basics of drawing and painting. Now I also know how to create a portfolio, promote myself on social media, and find clients. I also love the community that was built during the course, and Anastasiia herself is an amazing mentor for creatives."
VALENTINA ARROS VALDIVIA / NATURAL SCIENCE ILLUSTRATOR
"MAKE ART WITH CONFIDENCE" STUDENT
I had no prior experience in the art field, but now I run my own art studio and sell my paintings worldwide
"In the course, I found an amazing community where everyone was so supportive and encouraging. If you're looking for clear, actionable steps to establish yourself as a professional visual artist, I highly recommend this course."
NEHAL RATHOD / VISUAL ARTIST
"MAKE ART WITH CONFIDENCE" STUDENT
If I can do it as a busy mom, you can do it too
"I had been following online tutorials and enjoying them, but I felt stuck when it came to creating my own art. With the right guidance, I enhanced my skills, developed my unique artistic style, and gained the confidence and resources needed to start selling my art both online and offline. Don't worry about the time—if I, as a busy mom with three kids, could do it, you can too!"
STENYA LE CLAIR / CHILDREN BOOK ILLUSTRATOR
"MAKE ART WITH CONFIDENCE" STUDENT
The course really kept its promise. My confidence has soared
"I came back to creating art after a long pause and soon realized that YouTube tutorials were not enough. They were too random and sometimes confusing, so I knew I needed something more structured that would start from the very basics and gradually build up my knowledge and techniques. I was surprised by the quality of work I was able to create thanks to the course and Anastasiia's support. Enrolling in this course was the best decision ever."
KARIN FELNER / NATURE-INSPIRED WATERCOLOR ARTIST
"MAKE ART WITH CONFIDENCE" STUDENT
The course covers everything from the technical aspects to the business side of things
"The course has something for everyone, whether you are already a professional artist, aspire to become one, or want to create art just for fun. Get in there—it’s so much fun, and you won’t regret it!"
