Real Student Transformations — Acrylic Like Oils Academy

Does This Sound Familiar?

You Can Follow a Tutorial.
But Can You Paint on Your Own?

You find a tutorial you love. You follow every step. The painting comes out beautifully — and you feel that rush of accomplishment.

Then you sit down to paint something from your own photo. And nothing works the way it did.

  • The colors come out muddy or harsh
  • The blending looks flat or overworked
  • The painting doesn't resemble what you saw in the photo
  • You don't know what to try next

So you go looking for another tutorial. And the cycle starts over.

"The problem isn't talent. It's that following tutorials never actually teaches you how to paint. It just teaches you how to follow."

Acrylic Like Oils Academy™ is built to break that cycle — by teaching you the understanding behind great painting, not just the steps of someone else's lesson.

This Is Not Another Tutorial Collection

A System That Teaches You How to Actually Paint

Most online painting content teaches you what to do, step by step. The Academy teaches you why — so you can apply that understanding to any painting, from any photo, at any time.

What most tutorials give you

  • Instructions for one specific painting
  • Confidence that disappears when you paint alone
  • No understanding of why things work
  • Dependence on the next video to get started

What the Academy gives you

  • A complete system for any subject or photo
  • Skills that work when you're on your own
  • Deep understanding of color, light, and depth
  • The ability to start a blank canvas with confidence

Specifically, you'll build real mastery of:

How to blend acrylics smoothly
How to understand and mix color
How to create realistic depth and light
How to read a reference photo
How to make your own artistic decisions
How to paint confidently from your own photos

What Becomes Possible
When You Can Truly Paint

🌊

Paint the world you've seen

That beach from your vacation. The mountain view from your hike. The sunsets only you witnessed. Paint them exactly as you remember.

👨‍👩‍👧

Preserve what matters most

Turn a family photo into a painting that will last for generations. A gift that couldn't be bought from any store.

🏡

Fill your home with your own art

Every piece on your wall painted by your own hand — rooms that reflect your perspective, your taste, your voice.

🎨

Face a blank canvas with confidence

No more waiting to be told what to do. You understand the process — and you trust yourself to figure it out.

✍️

Create from your imagination

Once you understand color, light, and composition, you're no longer limited to copying. You build from your own ideas.

🌱

Keep growing on your own terms

Every painting teaches you something. Every challenge makes you more capable. The journey continues as long as you want it to.

"I started painting in 2018. Keep learning, keep painting — and you will get there."
— Pamela F., Student since 2018

Why Painters Around
the World Learn from Feliks

I started painting because I loved the rich, luminous look of oil paintings — but I wanted the speed, flexibility, and practicality of acrylics.

So I spent years developing a system that gives acrylics the depth and feel of oils. I shared it on YouTube — and what I didn't expect was that millions of people around the world were looking for exactly the same thing.

The Academy is where I teach that system properly. With structure, real feedback, and a clear path from your first brushstroke to the painting you've always wanted to create.

"I learnt so much not just blending but layering too from Feliks' courses and extremely fast. He is a great tutor — best I've watched."

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I actually be able to paint from my own photos?

That's exactly what the Academy is built to help you do. The entire curriculum — from your first lesson to your final project — is designed to develop the skills and confidence you need to paint from your own photos and ideas. Most students are working from their own references well before the end of their first year.

Do I need any prior painting experience?

None at all. The Academy starts from the very beginning. Whether you've never picked up a brush, or you've been painting for years and feel stuck — you're in the right place.

What materials will I need?

Standard acrylic paints, brushes, and canvas. A complete materials guide is included when you join. Nothing expensive or hard to find is required.

How much time do I need each week?

Even a few hours a week is enough to make real progress. Lessons are self-paced, so you work on your own schedule and at your own speed.

What if life gets busy and I fall behind?

Your access continues as long as you're a member. The curriculum isn't going anywhere. Come back whenever you're ready — your progress will be exactly where you left it.

When does the Academy open?

Very soon. Joining the waitlist puts you first in line and locks in founding member pricing before we open to the public.
