The subscription includes real time lessons for beginners and those who have never drawn before. Lessons are with detailed explanations. At the lessons we draw in watercolor sketching style.
Watercolor sketching is a technique of simple and bright drawings that we create using a liner and watercolor. In sketching you don't need to adhere to realism and strict rules. Even if you draw crooked and simplified drawings in this technique they still turn out to be beautiful and captivating. That is why it is so easy and simple to start drawing with watercolor sketching.

What our students say about us
Back again to say thanks. With your site, I am concentrating on the drawing for now. And the "thanks" is for your wide variety of subjects. Florals, landscapes, animals, food. A house in a landscape, a cozy little house with more detail. By watching you sketch, I've learned a lot. Something as simple as centering the page and then sketching around it. Nice for learning composition too.

I’ve wanted to be able to draw and watercolour for so so long and have bought so many books and things to do it but felt I’d never be able to but then I saw your Instagram posts about about to do drawing better and thought oh maybe I could do that as you showed every line we would need to make so I joined Patreon them a couple of days later I saw you were doing the free course so I was like okay just be brave and try it what have you to loose and I had drawings that were recognisable as to what they were by the end of each session and I was absolutely amazed. It made me feel good made me feel more confident to try and I’m so grateful that I found you! And I’m looking forward to trying more with the upcoming course. Thank you so much ☺️💕

I've been a continuous member of Anastasia's Dream and Draw school on Patreon since October 2023 and have attended all the additional courses she offers, as well as purchasing her book. I haven't regretted it a single day, as I've already learned so much from Anastasia. I love not only her subjects but also the structured flow of her streams. Everything always runs smoothly, which isn't something you can say about every teacher.
With her inexhaustible motivation and her ability to convey even challenging content in an easily understandable way for us learners, as well as her fantastic subjects, she motivates me to paint every day and thus practice. I owe what I can do today primarily to Anastasia, because at school I hated art class and everything to do with drawing and painting. Who would have thought that I now have loyal followers on Instagram who like my paintings? Therefore: I wholeheartedly recommend this learning platform with the sympathetic Anastasia.

I love the way the sketches are made. Anastasia explains everything so well that even the most difficult drawings become easy. Everytime I sketch with Anastasia I'm surprised by the great results. Thank you so much for everything I learned from you.

In June 2023, I wanted to learn to use watercolor. I had a set of watercolor and followed YouTube tutorials. That left me frustrated, uninspired and like I could not paint. I don't know how I found this patreon page, but it has been the best thing that happened. I remember the first thing I painted, it was the goldfish and it turned out good. I love the step by step of breaking down the painting into simple steps. It gave me the confidence to keep going and pushing myself. Thank you for the confidence to enjoy this wonderful art media. I will always be a fan and supporter.

I found your classes about a year ago and am so happy I did. Your style of teaching is gentle and calming and not too fast! Im a person who needs to learn in a slow structured way and you do this which gives me confidence and belief that I will "eventually" 🙂 become quite good. Until I found you I was desperately trying to keep up with tutorials that although great, just too fast for me, which left me sat looking at all the art equipment and paint sets im addicted to buying wondering if I would ever be good enough to use them, so thank you 😊

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!!!
