“I took this class immediately after completing Iva’s “Instagram Reels: Boost Your Engagement with Art Reveal Videos” (which I loved!) and it was a winner as well! Fun, easy to follow, inspiring and full of practical tips. I drew over a dozen personalized GIFs within a day of taking it and it was so much fun! I continue doodling new ones whenever I get a chance or when I want to put a personal touch to my IG stories – it just takes minutes to create and the satisfaction is immediate. I actually find it very relaxing and enjoyable to doodle my GIF sketches, a great warm up for a drawing session!”
