Surely you will progress in the utilization of the talent that G‑d has granted you toward the strengthening of Yiddishkeitand G‑d-fearing behavior.

I’m so thankful to have gone to estee’s art class in high school. She helped each of her students develop our own styles and gave us an outlet for our creativity. Seeing her example as an accomplished, frum woman is amazing to have as a role model!

Unbelievable

Congratulations Estee!
I remember the doodles on your notes in school, that you mention in the article, as well as your hand drawn rabbeim scrapbook in 8th grade. While those were well done, you certainly have come a long way in terms of developing your style and perfecting your artistic skills. Im amazed- though not surprised- by the artist you have become. Wishing you tremendous success in doing what you love and finding happiness. Keep up the awesome work!
