Thank you again forΒ ourΒ sessionΒ β€” it was such a fun and inspiring experience! I really appreciated how clearly and approachably you explained things, and I left feeling excited to try out the techniques we discussed. AfterΒ ourΒ session, I checked out the upgraded brushes on Procreate, and I'm already working on a digital piece for Peachtober with them β€” thank you for pointing them out!

I also loved how personalized theΒ sessionΒ felt β€” you really listened to what I wanted to work on and gave me advice I could apply immediately. The live tips and tricks you shared using the reverse camera were a real highlight!

Most of all, I loved the atmosphere: it felt genuine, encouraging, and safe to share ideas. I'd definitely recommend your 1:1s to other illustrators who want to grow their skills while feeling supported. 😊

I was nervous before doing my one-on-oneΒ sessionΒ with Esther, as I’m not used to talk much (I am very introverted) and I was afraid I wasn’t going to say much during it, but I can honestly say that I had a wonderful time duringΒ ourΒ chat. I felt like I was talking with a friend about art, methods, supplies, etc. Esther was very generous with her answers and there was not a question she didn’t address with calm, giving her opinion and sharing her experience about it. She gave me great tips and clarified some doubts I had, as I am starting out in the art buiness and looking for the best way to use my traditional and digital artΒ together.Β Β She gives you actionable steps to not only create a project during the class, but apply it in your work with your style.

I had a one-on-oneΒ sessionΒ with Esther and I absolutely loved it!

I was able to ask her tons of questions I had been wanting to ask, and she is very knowledgeable about everything art related. Not only about digital art, but we also talked about other things, such as how to get started in selling my art. She gave me a lot of ideas and tips to implement and try. It was an amazingΒ session. I felt very inspired and supported, which is important when you are feeling a little stuck in your journey...

I highly recommend working with her.Β

I really enjoyed my class time with Esther. Of course she was prompt and had much relevant information. She was able to incorporate the concerns I had with those of another student to answer questions that I didn't even know I had. We mostly talked about patterns, a few details regarding the technical creation of them, but a deeper attempt to understand the successful interworkings of a pattern. In particular how to identify the beginnings of a path towards success and then how to return to this work and draw out the multiple nuances that create successful pieces. And then also a reminder that success is relevant to your own satisfaction. The definition is enjoyed by the user which might only be you unless you have the courage to share it.

I have really enjoyed all the materials that have accompanied the class. The digital brush organizer and the free procreate brushes have been a joy to learn how to use and then play with. I am looking forward to more time online in art class with Esther.
