Illustrator Eunbi

Hello, I’m Eunbi, a freelance illustrator and character designer who previously worked as an art instructor for three years.
As many people did, I also liked painting since I was young, so I majored in visual design, but it was very different from my thoughts. I liked to draw by hand, not design with a computer.
It was a time when I was worried about the future.
After spending my freshman year like this, I went to see Avatar for the first time. I felt like my head was saying “Ding!”
I wondered “How did they make those characters and backgrounds? Who made them?” As I was searching for answers, I found “Concept Art.” You can make money by drawing characters and backgrounds. I think I felt really good back then.
I heard that Disney and Pixar animation, which I had always loved, also had their own field of concept art. I also learned that for them, a portfolio was more important than education, so with the support of my mother, I dropped out of school.
“When you do something you like, money comes by itself.”
My mother always said this. I also wanted to invest the money and time used studying things I didn’t want to learn into doing something new. .
After some time, I was fortunately offered a position as an 'art instructor' at an art school and worked as a freelancer for about 3 years. I quit my job as an instructor, and I’m currently doing personal work and freelance activities.
As a teacher, I felt very proud, and later I gave myself a goal. I want to build up my knowledge and experience in art to be able to help people who want to learn.
New challenge
Class 101 seems to be the beginning. I still have a lot to learn, but at the very least I want to teach you the artistic techniques that I struggled to learn in a fun and engaging way.
I hope my class helps you! :)
