International Students of Igor V. Babailov

Nota bene:

The academic lineage herein stands far beyond inspirational moments of occasional interactions with master-artists, i.e. attending their public portrait demonstrations, and/or inspirational stories of such, told by art-mentors, friends, or acquaintances.
 
This lineage represents the unbroken system of consecutive lessons, passed on DIRECTLY from Teacher to Student during a sustained period of time of formal academic education that resulted in earning a terminal Fine Art degree.

Igor V. Babailov, Hon. RAA, ellected Honorary Academician of the Russian Academy of Arts (est.1757) shares his expertise of the highest fine art education and academic credentials with his fellow professional artists and art students in the U.S., Canada, Italy, Russia and around the globe.
