Instructor​

Illustrator Yejji​

Hello, I'm illustrator Yejji.
I currently work as an instructor at Fevercell Academy and as a freelance illustrator specializing in anime-style character artwork.
Ever since I was young, I've been more fascinated by beautiful colors than by line drawing itself. Even now, as a professional illustrator, I continue to study and experiment with coloring whenever I can.
I created this class to share everything I've learned through years of practice, experimentation, and trial and error.
My goal is to help you become a stronger illustrator by understanding not only how to color, but how to think about form, lighting, materials, and visual balance.
I hope this class helps you enjoy the process of creating artwork while giving you the tools to produce more polished and memorable illustrations.
