    What Our Students Say

What Our Students Say

  • "I've been designing for a bit now and I learned a ton of new things! More importantly, I opened up my brain to different possibilities with design. This got me to look at gradients in a different way. Illustrator may not be 3D software, but with gradients and gradient shading you can get a 3D look. Awesome course and awesome instructor."

    — Michael

    Mastering Gradients in Adobe Illustrator

  • "A great class that will not only show you how to complete a project, but teach you how the tools really work. One thing that can be frustrating with online learning is when a teacher goes from A to B without providing a detailed explanation — this class does the opposite and really goes into how and why every change was made. It's a small thing, but the use of time-lapses instead of cuts also helps it feel like the teacher isn't performing some magic off-screen. Afterwards, I now have ideas for how I can use pieces of what I've learned in my own work."

    — Aiden

    Abstract Gradients in Adobe Illustrator: A Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Organic Vibrant Artworks

  • "Great lesson! Evgeniya has excellent lessons: detailed, informative, with clear descriptions and examples. She gives much more information than I could expect from the topic of the lesson!"

    — Olga

    Designs Dissected: Gradient Studies | Advanced Graphic Effects in Adobe Illustrator

  • "Not just a basic "this is how you move sliders here and there; to the left and to the right". The profound explanation how the sliders affect the photograph is something I was looking for (very difficult to find). However, I believe viewers should have some good understanding of Lightroom features to grasp the whole idea of this course. 10/10"

    Adobe Lightroom Classic: Advanced Workflow & Tips for Enhancing Your Colour Edits

  • "So much great information about the different color filters, because I always use greyscale with flat results and using colors makes more sense. Love that Dominic takes the time to explain the why behind the how."

    — Floor

    Black & White Photography: Using Colour Filters to Enhance Your Film & Digital Images

  • "This has to be one of the most comprehensive tutorials on how to effectively use the Cloning, Healing and Spot Healing tool, not to mention the Curves adjustment feature in Photoshop. I also now understand how to use the Layers feature which is something I have always struggled with. Dominic made this so easy to understand, and have taken the fear out of retouching photos. Thank you so much!"

    — Barb

    Beginner’s Guide to Retouching Old Photographs in Adobe Photoshop

  • "It was a very interesting and informative class. I've been into photography for years, but I didn't know much about history and this class was perfect way to learn about it. I also have to comment on the exceptional quality of video and presentation here."

    — Mariya

    The Camera’s Journey Through Time: A Brief History of Photography

  • "I loved the whole aesthetic of this class, from the graphic design of the chapter headings and provided pattern templates to the excellent, clear photography. From the beautiful simple forms of the ornaments themselves that matched the clarity and precision of the instructions. The class is well structured and very easy to follow. Obviously a lot of thought has gone into the making of it and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in creating this kind of origami for some original Christmas ornaments or home decorations."

    — Elspeth

    Create Geometric Origami Paper Ornaments for Holiday, Party & Home Decor

  • "I loved this class! It is amazing! As always, Evgeniya is a totally creative professional, engaged in her courses, and one of the best teachers because she is teaching you amazing skills, but she also shows you the easiest and most practical way you can learn and experiment. The lessons are easy to follow, and you can put into action what you learn right away. For pattern designers or those who love patterns, this is heaven. You just need some time to test all that Evgeniya is teaching in this class, and you will discover endless patterns."
