Nice to meet you, I'm YUKA(ゆか), an "etegami" watercolor painting instructor.
Free drawing (etegami) is not about sketching or using difficult techniques.
It is a simple painting technique that allows you to express your own emotions on a single postcard.
My painting style is based on traditional Japanese painting styles, and not the realistic style of Western paintings. I will explain in an easy-to-understand manner on how to hold your brush, how to use pigments, and how to handle paper. Wouldn't you like to send your own paintings to your loved ones? Beginners and children are more than welcome.
After graduating from Osaka Municipal High School of Arts, I worked as an illustrator and designer in various DTP and interent commercial fields.
