Terrific! Thorough and presented by a charming, very professional teacher. Excellent videography. I so appreciate all the extra resources and links — I am an artist in a remote corner of South Africa. Captivated by the international trend for these raised effects, I got some tools and tried to figure out how it all works. Well, HELLO! I battled until I turned to Domestika. I needed this course and Mariana’s generous spirit.
