Esther, a life long Montrealer, has been a student of the arts for most of her life. Her interests have included many different media over the years, foremost among which are Stone Sculpting, Ceramics, and especially Painting.

Her studies took on a more formal character in the early 1980's, when she began training at the Saidye Bronfman School of fine Arts, working with such professors as Rita Briansky, AmyLee, Rose Cobeil, Brigitte Radecky for painting, Stanley Lewis for Sculpting, and Myrna Brooks Bercovitch for "mixedmedia."

She pursued her strongest love of Painting and Sculpture throughout the first half of the decade,producing some of her more notable works such as Landscapes and Still life. In addition to the Saidye Bronfman School, her tutelage continued with a number of different teachers in Institutions from Montreal to Miami, including the South Florida's Art Institute of fine Arts in Hollywood, Florida, and the Montreal's Visual Art Center
