The free course is excellent. It was my first introduction to watercolor, and to be honest, not just watercolor - I draw at the level of an elementary school student. 😄 I actually did quite well with the free course lessons. (For my level of "first time holding a brush," probably even excellently.) I want to especially mention the articulate speech and pleasant voice, which are also important.

Good evening! I would like to express my immense gratitude to Anastasia and her team! This free course is simply fantastic! There are many positive aspects, and I would like to highlight a few:

• Thoughtfully selected references (all very cozy and beautiful!)
• A very charming tutor! It was not only enjoyable to draw but also to listen to and watch. Despite the format of video lessons, it almost felt like having a teacher present! Anastasia explained everything clearly and filled us with a great mood.
• Well-structured lessons - everything was organized and many other pluses!

I want to thank you once again!

Thank you so much to the free course organizers and especially to Anastasia. Excellent organization, detailed lessons. Anastasia explained drawing methods simply and comprehensibly. It was very pleasant to witness the magic of creating an image. And then... I made a decision. Somehow, in school, I enjoyed drawing, but I never picked up a brush again after that. I thought it wasn't necessary, not my thing, I'll do it later. What a pity. It was precisely this free course with its wonderful lessons, the excellent professional artist as the host, the friendly atmosphere, and beautiful references that sparked an irresistible desire in me to draw. Unfortunately, I didn't get to draw during the free course, but over the weekend, I happily engaged in creative activities. Thank you!

I have participated in such an event for the first time, and initially, I had doubts. However, my doubts were completely dispelled during the introductory lessons. The lessons were amazing!!!! Thank you so much, Anastasia, for the way you presented the material: it was clear and interesting!!!!! Time flew by unnoticed. Special thanks for the analysis of the completed works! There was always a lot of additional information, and through the analysis of other participants' works, it provided an opportunity to understand what to improve in my own work in the future. I will definitely continue to follow your account on instagram. I have already recommended this free course to my friends, and the results made an impression on them. I think that next time, someone of them will definitely join, as they saw firsthand what a super experience it is through my example.

I've always dreamed of learning to draw, but it never seemed to work out. This year, at the age of 73, I finally decided to fulfill my dream. I really enjoy drawing, especially with watercolors. However, being a beginner in art, it was quite challenging for me. I had no idea about the different types of watercolor paper, brushes, paints, and I had never even heard of liners or masking fluid. I joined this free course hoping to gain experience and learn something useful, and my expectations were more than exceeded.

I liked how everything was explained in detail during the lessons, and the assignments themselves were quite challenging (for me). I appreciated the thorough analysis of the artwork, which immediately revealed the flaws and mistakes in my own work. I also loved how Anastasia explained in detail how to mix paints to achieve the desired color. There's so much more I could say, but to put it briefly, everything is superb! These are the best lessons I've ever attended. I don't know what else could be improved. And of course, I will recommend them to everyone.
Wishing you, Anastasia, lots of success, many grateful students and happiness!

Thank you very much, Anastasia! It was very interesting! Your masterclasses really energized me for pursuing this direction in art, and I can't stop now! I want to mention that during the masterclass, you described in great detail how to do the drawing, which colors to mix, shading, and you provided elements of the drawings. The construction of various objects was explained very well. Everything was understandable even to beginners in this field. It was very professional and super fun!!!

This free course is really, really awesome. Probably the best one I've ever participated in. I want to thank Anastasia and everyone involved in its preparation and organization. I really liked it: the video quality is excellent, everything is visible, even with just a pencil, the explanations are very accessible and clear, especially the useful guidance on mixing colors. The references are magnificent, not just objects, but narrative ones. Some even seemed complex, ones that I might not have attempted to draw on my own. I discovered new things for myself, new color combinations I hadn't used before. I also enjoyed leaving white spaces in certain areas, something I hadn't done before. In general, everything is fantastic and great!!! Thank you so much!!!

Anastasia, I sincerely thank you for the wonderful lessons! It just so happened that I had never drawn before, and I thought I had no talent for it. I joined your free course at the age of 45, starting from scratch. I simply decided to give it a try and felt that with you, it was safe even to face failure. I can't believe these are my own works! Your teaching is so clear, interesting, easy, and calm. There's so much information, and you explain everything in such detail. I bought a child's set of 24 colors for the free course, but watching you, I learned to work magic with just a few and create an incredible range of colors! And I started to see the world with different eyes! How did I not see all the beauty and the range of shades, highlights, and shadows before? It's simply incredible! Thank you.
