I absolutely loved this course and will definitely experiment more. Thank you to Etchr and Dena Marshall hope to see more from her. I’ve seen a few other examples and it always amazes me how different each one is and so good.

I have really learned a lot from Dena Marshall about drawing and shading. And her technique is so relaxed and freeing. They are just scribbles - but the way she teaches brings all those scribbles together into a pretty realistic picture. I have not been able to make such a three-dimensional image with sketching before.
