Lessons over video — from anywhere
A 55-minute one-to-one lesson. All you need is a smartphone and the place where you usually draw. Children, teenagers and adults take part — from Kazakhstan and from other countries.
Five reasons to study outside the studio
A 55-minute lesson with a clear order
Fifty-five minutes is how long a person holds attention on one piece. After that the hand tires, and the result with it.
One smartphone is enough
There is nothing to buy. Below is what is genuinely required and what is merely more convenient.
Where people join from
Online lessons are not limited to Kazakhstan: students have joined from other countries too. The time is chosen to suit your time zone — we agree that when you sign up.
What online does not replace
What a lesson costs
The price depends on age, the length of the course and how many lessons a week. Write on WhatsApp and I will give you an exact figure before we start.
Kazakhstan — Almaty, Astana, Shymkent, Karaganda, Aktobe and smaller towns where there is simply no art studio nearby.
Neighbouring countries — Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Russia — the time difference is small, so lessons usually land on a normal evening.
Asia and further — Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia — for those who have left for a long stay or live there. The difference from Almaty is one to three hours, so your morning lines up comfortably with the afternoon here.
How long is a lesson? Fifty-five minutes. That is how long attention holds on one piece — after that the hand tires, and the result with it.
From what age do you teach online? Children, teenagers and adults all take part. For younger children it works if an adult is nearby — setting up the camera and changing the water is not always something a child manages alone.
Do I need a second camera? No, one is enough. With a second the critique is sharper: both the work and how you hold the brush are visible. But one phone is a fine start.
I am not in Kazakhstan — is that possible? Yes. Students have joined from several countries, including Asia. The time is chosen for your zone — tell me where you are and I will suggest options.
What materials do I need? I send a list in advance for the particular subject. You can start with what you have at home: gouache and paper serve a first lesson as well as oils.
Is online worse than the studio? In one respect, yes: correcting your grip is faster in person. Otherwise the difference is smaller than expected, and regularity matters more than format. Weekly online beats monthly in the studio.
Can I try a single lesson? Yes. A single lesson shows the main thing: whether the format suits you and whether working this way is comfortable. Better to find that out before paying for a course.
