I teach adults to do things they were sure they couldn't.

Since 1997 I have taught adults to draw — people who arrived saying "I have no talent." Over 700,000 people have learned to draw and paint from my step-by-step self-study guides (publisher's data, 2021), published by EKSMO, Russia's largest publisher; four of the guides have been translated into Chinese.

The method was never about drawing. It was about how an adult builds a complex skill from zero — without humiliation and without pretending it's easy.

Now I teach the same way for AI.
