Creating Artists
“He understands my creative and technical struggle, helps me in where I want to go”
“Dmitri’s gift is his mastery of so many techniques, yet he has the ability to teach it, making it simple to understand and use”
“His classes are magical”
“Each year I study with him, I grow as an artist and as a person”
“He is so enthusiastic and has a depth of knowledge more than anyone I have ever studied with - he makes it all come alive, he understands us because of he shares his our journey as an artist.”
“Dear Professor Dmitri
Thank you so much for your patience and generosity, these past ten weeks have been a dream come true. You are a great teacher, I learned so much from you. I amazed myself to see how much I have improved my painting skills. These last ten weeks have been so magical that now when I am painting I feel stars in my eyes, rainbows in my heart and sunshine in my brain. God bless you and your family. Warmly ECCdeD”
My Mission
As an instructor/Master Artist my mission is to help others fulfill their unique gifts through the creative process, by helping them connect with their natural ability and adding to that the technical knowledge of their chosen school or schools of art.
Why I begin with Impressionism
Impressionism is the bridge between the Academy/Classical and the Expressionists. It is the mortar that holds those worlds, it is the transitional place from which students can explore the various schools. The Impressionists worked side-by-side fulfilling each other without competing with each other, which is my teaching philosophy.
