Mastering Painting , Drawing and Composition | Online Art Lessons

From 22.66 € /h

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.

Extra information

My regular lessons typically run for two hours.

Use 1-hour Free Trial lesson to ensure we have ample time to get to know each other, discuss your artistic goals, and explore your style preferences🧡

Looking forward to our creative journey together!

I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.

I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.

I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.

In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.

You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.

Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London.

Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don’t always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you!

Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs.

The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language.

(Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it. But also be mindful that as we grow our interests can change and as they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.)

Have questions? Don’t hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

I teach digital painting with a focus on clarity, structure, and outcome. You’ll learn how to control digital brushes, build convincing lighting, use color intentionally, and create textures that add depth. We’ll move from the basics of composition to the challenges of designing characters, surreal environments, and expressive scenes.

By the end, you’ll produce portfolio-ready artworks and understand a professional workflow from sketch to finish. Each session combines hands-on exercises with discussion of artistic choices, so you strengthen both technical skill and creative judgment.

This course is for beginners and intermediate artists who want to go beyond tutorials and actually build a body of polished, original work.

"Industrial drawing" or "technical drawing", whether manual or computer-aided (CAD, CAM...),
is first and foremost a language or graphic communication tool with precise rules.
This language, largely standardized internationally (ISO: International Standard
Organization), can be considered a universal language used in the same way
all over the world.
Industrial drawing is used by technicians, engineers, and designers to communicate
from the initial idea of a product to its design and production. All products, machines and
Various systems are first designed and defined graphically before considering their
manufacturing.

The Art of Naming in Anatomy: Decoding Anatomy for Medical Students

I teach anatomy through a terminology-based approach that helps medical students decode the logic behind anatomical names instead of memorizing everything as disconnected facts. My method treats anatomy as a language, where names often reflect structure, location, attachments, function, shape, direction, size, or relationship to surrounding anatomy.

This approach is especially helpful for students who feel overwhelmed by anatomy and struggle with retention. By learning how to break down anatomical terms into meaningful parts, students can organize information more effectively, improve recall, and reduce confusion when studying large volumes of material.

My focus is practical and student-centered. I help students build a strong exam-oriented foundation by prioritizing high-yield memorization strategies first, while gradually strengthening understanding over time. I also guide students on how to approach practice questions in a way that reinforces anatomical memory and improves long-term retention.

The goal is not only to memorize anatomy for an exam, but to develop a reliable way of reading, interpreting, and learning anatomy with confidence.
