I enjoyed the presenter's calm, soothing voice. Her explanations were clear. Clear instructions and demonstrations. I learned a lot. I have fun doing all the practices. Absolutely wonderful! I just retired from teaching for 37 years and wanted to start a hobby. I used to do calligraphy with pens so I thought I'd try brushes. I ordered all types of brush pens, paints, etc. Each day, I journal scriptures. At first it was very different using a brush but as Michaela says, "Practice!" I've been doing it for 2 weeks and have to admit, I'm getting much better. I know with time, it will get easier. This class went slow enough that I could follow the instructor without frustration on my part. I am a perfectionist. I love the varied activities. She is such a great instructor. I look forward to other classes with her!This class offers so many tips for practicing hand lettering and it is progressively structured. Great and exciting new tips all along the way. Loved the class. Please have more lettering classes. Wonderful class, loved how it was all broken down so simply. Thank you Micheala.
