Illustrator
Hello, I'm Jauni,
a.k.a Tofublock on social media.
Ever since I was a little child, I loved art.
I started drawing as a hobby,
grew my social media presence,
then eventually ended up where I am today
- as an illustrator!
When I first started,
I experimented & played with
various styles and colors.
I give credit to that time for helping me
develop my original style of drawing.
After I mastered my unique drawing style,
I was fortunate enough to participate in workshops,
draw a book cover and do commission work.
These experiences have helped me go further
in experimenting & studying a wider variety
of colors and their applications.
I'm very excited to teach this class
and wish to help as many students as possible.
During this class, I'll share my knowledge
of color theory and how to apply it properly
to create whimsical & dreamy art
to advance your art style.
Illustrator,
Jauni

Interview with
Expert Illustrator,
Jauni
My passion is creating art that evokes a certain whimsical or melancholic feel. In this class, I want to emphasize the role of color theory as well as lighting & shadows in creating that sense of nostalgia and longing in art. I relieve a lot of stress while I'm drawing, and it translates into my art pieces which the audience finds calming. I'm very honored to share the process behind my art and hope it'll help other students to create atmospheric illustrations as well.

What makes your class different
from other classes?
One thing that differentiates my class would be the first-hand knowledge I've gathered over the decades as an illustrator. I want to share the skills & techniques I've acquired over years of practice, and use them to guide others to discover their unique style. Another highlight of my class is color theory. Although the theory is widely prevalent, applying it to practice can be very challenging. After taking this class, you'll learn how to express a melancholic mood in your art piece, which will help you expand your skills as an illustrator.
Question.03

What would be the most important takeaway from your class?
I want to emphasize how colors can speak a thousand words. You can evoke powerful emotions just by selecting a specific color palette, and that is something I appreciate when creating nostalgic art. I hope to share my perspective on colors so that students will have a better understanding when creating an atmospheric illustration.
