My name is Feliks Kaparchuk and I'm an acrylic painter, teacher, and art influencer. I moved to the United States from Russia when I was 6 years old. My love and experimentation with art began around 15 years old and I have been painting with acrylics for almost 18 years now.

I love to experiment with different techniques and subjects, ranging from realistic landscapes to abstract.

During my time experimenting with acrylics, I developed a special blending technique using acrylic paints which helped me to get a smooth blend on my paintings. Acrylics can dry fast and be difficult to work with, so this was a huge breakthrough in my creative process.

I started sharing my art and techniques on Instagram and YouTube beginning in 2017 with the hope that it could inspire and educate other aspiring acrylic painters like myself. Since then, I have developed an amazing community of over 4 million followers across social media who are passionate about art and painting.

When I create, my goal is to create from the heart onto the canvas. Sometimes that means painting abstract pieces, and other times it means creating a detailed nature landscape with a colorful twist to it.

My classes are created with every skill level of artist in mind; whether you are just beginning or an advanced painter, there is something that you will be able to takeaway. I intentionally create my lessons to be very approachable and easy to follow along with, I know what it is like to be a beginner at art and I do my best to explain everything thoroughly.

I hope you will enjoy creating with me and if you have questions along the way, don't hesitate to add them to the discussion section of the class you are taking.

Happy painting!
