Hello! I liked your wolves on the cover of the course, I would really like to comprehend the mysteries of creating art in this style. Accordingly, I would like to purchase your course, but I need to clarify a couple of details. First: I still do not perceive English well by ear, the text form (subtitles) is given to me much better, plus Google translator can come to the rescue) Do your video lessons have a subtitle function? And second, how can I make payment? Through what apps?
Rebecca Shay
There’s no subtitle yet. As for payment, I think you just click the purchase button on the website.

My favorite quotes from the video: -As a designer you want to direct the eye... and tell a story...through posture and facial features (secondary), -Simplicity equals mass appeal -Small versus Big, curved vs straight. -Nothing is even/ Break symmetry

that depends on your personal definition of ugly, sexual, beauty and joy.
