About Esther Nariyoshi
Hi! I'm Esther, and I've spent years figuring out how to make traditional and digital art play nicely together. After teaching 40+ classes on illustration as a Top Teacher on Skillshare, with 45K+ students, and licensing my work to major brands, I've learned what actually works (and what's just marketing fluff). This lab is everything I wish I'd had when I was starting out.

This was such a fun class. I've literally spent the rest of the day playing around with shapes and colour variations. I think it's addictive. Thank you for inspiring me.

Really great class with many examples. The Esther's style is relaxed and personable. She breaks down the information in such a way that is simple and fun, and offers an abundance of easily applicable tips. Additionally, the instructor's chatter while she worked was light and humorous.

Great class with a great project accessible to all skill levels. Steps are actionable and the end result is a beautiful project that anyone would love to create.
