Meet the teacher
Hello! My name is Natalia, and I am an oil painter and instructor.
I am convinced that anybody - absolutely anybody - can learn to paint.
Even better - anybody can learn to paint WELL.
I'm a true believer in practice, not in "talent".
Just like most of my students, I learned to paint at home, studying theory and spending countless hours practicing.
It took me a while to figure out how to make the process smoother and easier. I've learned to break down the whole process into several understandable stages. Just as any goal or task can be broken down into a few easier steps, I use that system to teach my students how to get to a desired result in painting.
I think of myself not even as much as a teacher, but rather that kid in class, that explains to the others what the teacher says, in words that others can easily understand and digest :)
