Skills You’ll Learn

How to use Photoshop

I mainly use Photoshop, but I have included explanations of Clip Studio and Procreate as appropriate.

Basic knowledge of painting such as light, shadow, and composition

I will teach you how to draw a single picture by applying basic knowledge of painting such as light, shadow, and composition.

Do you want to draw beautiful landscapes in rural areas, etc., but aren't you sure where to start?

This class is a digital illustration class that creates works that heal people who are tired of their hearts, with themes such as the countryside, nature, and everyday life.


I will teach you how to draw a single picture by applying basic knowledge of painting such as light, shadow, and composition. Then, I'll tell you how to come up with ideas, practice methods to improve basic abilities, and tips for improving. By the end of class, drawing landscapes should be fun.


Drawing is my own world where no one else interferes with me. So I hope you can take the course at your own pace without being impatient. There may be times when things don't work, but that's a difficult but fun part of painting, so I hope you can take your time.

I'm looking forward to seeing all of you on video!

When attending the course

Creators use paid digital tools “Photoshop, Clip Studio, Procreate” to proceed with illustration production. I mainly use the PC version of Photoshop, but I will sandwich the explanations of Clip Studio and Procreate where necessary. There is an explanation in class about how to use the tool and how to use it. We recommend that you prepare for a smooth course.



2 reasons why this class is special

① A full curriculum that even beginners can enjoy learning

The content of this class is designed so that beginners who have drawn even a little bit with digital tools can step up. I will give you a summary of the important points, so I think it will be useful for intermediate students as well. There are many parts of the picture that seem to be drawn with the senses that actually follow the basics. I think once you learn the basics well, you'll be able to draw more happily and freely!

② You can experience the fun of drawing illustrations

You can experience that the elements of a picture, such as light and shadow, are actually not that complicated and difficult. And I'll tell you the fun of combining these elements like a puzzle to complete a picture.

Creator Interview ①

Q. What kind of activities do teachers usually do? Please introduce yourself briefly!

I usually work as an illustrator.

I studied programming when I was a student, but I drew pictures as a hobby. After that, I got a job as an engineer once. I was drawing as a hobby during that time, but when I posted my work on SNS, I was able to get a job, and I became a freelance illustrator in 2022.

Currently, I draw various illustrations such as book cover illustrations and CD jackets.

Q. Why did you offer online classes with CLASS101?

I usually think a lot about how to improve my painting.

I'm most happy when I've tried various things and it goes well, and when I feel my progress.

I thought it might benefit someone if I could share the discoveries I found in this with others, so I offered this course.
