My work is full of flowers, animals, and a little whimsy, painted in cheerful colors and drawn from small happy moments.
I like to build rhythm and flow with shapes, play with color, and bring a warm, joyful mood.
We bring that same spirit to gouache, watercolor, colored pencils, Neocolors, and Procreate. On fun projects, drawing landscapes, plants, animals, and the people and places you love.
Watercolor, gouache, pencils and pastels, all on your iPad. Fill your pages with soft washes, creamy color, and grainy pastel marks, layer them the way you would on paper, and carry your whole studio wherever you go.

"I needed this class so much, it gave me so much clarity and confidence! Many times, illustrating, I felt, that something is off, but couldn‘t tell exactly, what. Now I know, how to make compositions, so that they just feel finished. Thank you!!"
"I learned so much about using color and light to make my art more emotional and impactful. It just clicked in a way it never did before. Iva made it super practical and easy to follow, and now I feel way more confident with my work. I loved it!"
"This class has helped me so much with drawing backgrounds! I used to be afraid of drawing buildings and interior because of the perspective... but now I'm feeling brave and confident to try to put some perspective as my background. Thank you so much Iva, your way of explaining things are so easy to follow ;)"
"Color is something I always struggle with in my work. This class gave me real examples to practice and start to create my own color palettes without feeling overwhelmed. Iva's explanations of why she chose certain colors also really helped me better understand the process."
"Great intro class to the basics of color, light and shadow with plenty of helpful tips and examples. I especially liked the comparing of both digital and traditional artwork. Thankyou Iva for your expertise and another excellent art class that is much needed for any student staring out in this skill."
"I was always interested to draw people and always thought it was going to be a difficult task. This class changed it! I am able to draw really cute characters now and I can't stop. So happy to have taken this class. Really helpful, accessible, and inspiring :)"
