First time trying animal caricature but absolutely loved everything. It's a whole new world for me and the ideas are flowing continuously. Thanks so much, Nina for putting this out into the world - I cant wait to see where this journey leads me!

I entered this program to gain skills in drawing animal characters and be able to create imaginative anthropomorphic characters and that is exactly what I achieved. I find myself creating characters with much more ease and without being enslaved to the initial references.
