I don't consider myself artistic, but Lisa made this look easy. It looks like a great place for a beginner to start, but still continue to use this to grow and improve along the way. In 2015 I watched a class of hers and did a few doodles. Just the other day (2025) I ran across my 'started' sketchbook from 2015 and it rekindled my desire. I watched this class and started doodling again. It's enjoyable and relaxing. Thanks Lisa!

Lisa makes these techniques so accessible by breaking them down into small pieces that anyone can do. By the end of the class, I had created several very fun pieces. What a blast!
