welcome to myartprofessor.com
You’re here to master core art skills and I can help you with that!
I’m Peter Sakievich (Sack-uh-vitch)! I’m a university professor, freelance concept artist and painter.
And I’m your instructor here!
Every single day I’m looking for real ways of turning aspiring pros (like you?) into professionals.
I’ve helped thousands of university students pursue their long term goals!
You can catch me in my studio or sometimes in secluded mountains with my dog, Bosch, working on comics, paintings, concept art and illustrations for my various projects.
Check out below for info on my courses here or one-on-one consultations (critiques, portfolio reviews, demos, etc).
Come chat with me, get your questions answered, sit in on demos and more over on youtube!
I stream most days in the mornings and evenings. Typically I’m working on personal, exploring media and study topic projects and am happy to chat, demo, answer questions and more.
