hello there!

I am Esther from Singapore, and I am an artist with a background in industrial design and marketing. I started my journey in art and illustration in 2020, during the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic, to keep myself inspired during the long days lockdown. Since then, after rounds and rounds of exploration, I have developed along the way my signature soft, dreamy and vintage style, achieved using a range of tools and techniques.

Art has been a healing journey for me in terms of discovering myself, as well as giving me a platform to connect with like-minded friends, both online and offline, who love being creative and making beautiful things! As such, I created this course Illustrate a Travel Journal in Vintage Style so I can share the joy art has given me with you ♥

I look forward to having you join me for the course!

FAQs

  • This course is meant to be suitable for beginners and intermediate level. Having the basics would be helpful, but it is not strictly needed. I will be guiding you on the basic techniques of watercolour, drawing and using pastels.

  • In the course, I will share with you a list of my recommended art materials that I love, and use myself. If you’re just starting out, I also have a list of quality, affordable tools you can consider.

    You will need a sketchbook (with at least 50% cotton), watercolour paintbrushes, paints, colour pencils, pastel pencils, blending stump and eraser. I will share with you my commonly used colours for the pencils, so you can purchase them individually first and decide later whether you’d like to invest in a set.

  • I’m currently working hard on it, and will set to launch it in early-mid Jan 2025! To make sure you don’t miss out on any updates, please sign up on the waitlist above ^

  • Yes! The course will be self-paced, so you can complete it in a pace that is comfortable to you :) You will also have lifetime access to the course, so you can revisit it again in the future

  • Absolutely not! I believe that travelling is first and foremost, the ability to see and experience your surroundings with fresh, curious eyes 👀

    To do that, you could simply make a day trip to a part of town you’re less familiar with, or even take a different route to work! You’ll surprise yourself with the number of things you’ll find, that you can illustrate as a subject in your sketchbook.

  • Yes of course! The techniques taught in this class are versatile, and specifically towards teaching you how to achieve the dreamy, vintage style of illustration.

    You can also apply the techniques to a wide range of subjects such as architecture, plants, vehicles etc :) The possibilities are endless!
