I think if you look at the reviews on Amazon it shows you self-portraits by students at the beginning of the 8 week class and then at the end. It’s amazing. I think you’d really enjoy it?

I watched some YouTube tutorial and it helped a lot with skills. However, if I want to do it real good, I need to put in the hard work.
