Happy drawing 😊

Genevieve! I got my ipad about two years ago. Your brushes were the first i ever bought. An author hired me and I officially have my first published illustrated book! Thank you so much for teaching me how to create digitally! I will be buying your course next!

[mariamangion]

Genevieve, your captivating videos never cease to impress! Your exceptional talent, delightful personality and entertaining content makes every moment an absolute joy. I adore you and your positive impact is undeniable. Keep shining and spreading the love 🥹💕

[bihardelicacies]

The way you teach us, any one can become a pro. Great video I just love it. And i am not saying it, I made it also as I don't have any tab any ios, I made it on my phone with the app ibispaint x. Thanku for your video mam😍🥰. Love from India🇮🇳.

[elifnuray]

I followed your video step by step and I could draw finally. Thank you so much. I would love to share with you 😊

[digitalartistsstudio]

I love these kinds of videos, thank you.

I love listening to your videos while drawing! I usually don’t follow the tutorials but take small tips whilst doing illustrations :)

[bhoggard]

I'm basing mine off my daughter. Little girl with light brown hair in a purple dress

[rachelriley]

Genevieve, you make drawing shapes look effortless. You have incredible precision!

[EIBIPolymerClay]

my character is wearing shorts with flowers and a large collar 😊 thanks for your videos!!!💙

[samanthachristopher]

My character is happy, with a big brown ponytail. I had a hard time placing the arms in the beginning, so mine will be singing, not holding a flower. Love your content! I've learned so much from you Genevieve!

[Annamakesart]

Thank you so much! 😊❤ this is so cute 🥰 and I can’t believe I’m so early 😅

[rofaydaramadan]

I just love your channel. It's really helping me to improve my skills. Your voice is satisfying, and your tips are clear and helping and easy to follow. You are doing great, Keep going 💪❤

[lidiyaivannikova]

This was my first-ever drawing! It took me a week, and I couldn't figure out how to draw legs from shorts. So, I drew a girl in a lilac dress (you'd never catch me in a dress, let alone a lilac one), but with my straight and bleach-damaged locks lol. Thank you for this tutorial!

[fjepmod]

Genevieve, Thank you for sharing your skills and ideas which I'm translating to a different art app. So far the only difference is the types of pencils and brushes. I'm learning so much. My character is a young girl sitting cross legged painting. She will be part of a bigger picture if not, someone a bit like her. It's all learning and practice just now.

[Persephone]

I tried to draw myself. not the best drawer but I'm trying and that is what is important. love your videos and I also love following them. <3

[AmSaTre]

My character is wearing a crop top and jeans! Love your videos!❤

[tjt]

My character is a little red head girl with two braids in overalls that are rolled up a little. She is blowing a wish on a dandelion ( not so good at drawing that. ). Super fun!

[KhalidAskar]

Genevieve, your videoa are ao inspirational and educational.
Been following most of your videos since getting my ipad and procreate.
Keep up the great job. Hoping to finish my childrens book by the end of the summer thanks to your videos 🎉

I found this one harder! As a beginner I had trouble with the hands and the ear, as simples as they might be
