I like her style and her process but I don't think this course is not for beginners. If you don't have a foundation about the Procreate, it will be hard for you to follow. Another thing is she doesn't provide the name of the brushes used during this course so if you want to learn to have the same effects and textures, the answer may not be there for you.

I am so grateful for the illustrator Chabaski and her comprehensive showcase of the complete creative process. I often encounter creative blocks and struggle with blank canvas syndrome due to a lack of "drawing sense." Chabaski's teaching was not only beginner-friendly but also ensured a quality output. Her guidance has been invaluable in overcoming these challenges, making the learning experience both enjoyable and productive.
