“I couldn't let the weekend pass without thanking Alisa Cooper for an absolutely fabulous introduction to Travel Sketching. Her easy and supportive teaching style made learning so much fun. I have to confess I am hooked for life. Now bring on the once a month workshops starting soon. 🥰❤️🤗
PS: I feel like I’ve come such a long way in 6 weeks and hopefully the progress will continue “😀👩🏼‍🎨🎨 Rajini. March 2024
