As your coach and instructor, I'll work together with you to tackle any challenges.
You can check in daily with any questions, and every two weeks we'll get together on a Live call.
I've been creating fabric portraits since 2006 and helping people just like you learn this amazing technique.
Thank you Valerie for the videos and notes which are very helpful to me. I will look closely at the mouth lines and especially the note on the rounding of the teeth is a great help for me. So I appreciate it!
Great lessons. Thank you!!
Thank you for the video on the mouth and lips, it's going to help me when I do the next one. The notes are also good.
This course focuses on the mouth area only and does not go into how to create a portrait in fabric.
