I was a bit unsure to buy this course at first, but I am SO glad I did! Although I would prefer the course went a bit deeper into basics of tezhip, the overall content is so amazing that even though I haven't been able to complete the course yet due to some reasons, I am already able to make designs on my own. And that coming from me is huge, because I got introduced to proper Islamic art only a year back, and I discovered and fell in love with Islamic Illumination much later. Thank You Dr Esra!

Let's say it is an ok place to get acquainted with Islamic biomorphic patterns.
But to really understand the composition of the various elements that make up these patterns and learn the nuances of how to draw them "correctly" loyal to its tradition, we need to seek elsewhere. Also the teacher hasn't taken measures to makes the lines she draws really visible. I was gong to follow along just for the fun of it but gave up not being able to see what she is doing.

PlusThis course was challenging and engaging. Esra is a great teacher - super knowledgeable and quite funny! I enjoyed learning about the history of this art. Unexpectedly, I learned a few important techniques with using watercolors I hadn't learned from tutorials dedicated to watercolors, so that was a great bonus!

Eu estou amando o curso da Esra! Ela explica com muita paciência e cuidado, assim como a própria arte da iluminação Islâmica. É raro encontrar conteúdos online sobre Tazhib em inglês, apenas em turco ou farsi. Parabéns para a Domestika!

Es genial este curso, ¡Me encanto! Como estudiante de antropología me interesó muchísimo y abrió una gran puerta en mi forma de entender el arte islámico. Ya me puse en campaña para conseguir los materiales para pintar en Córdoba, Argentina.
