Questions, answered
Should I buy this course once, or subscribe?＋
Both work. A one-time purchase gives you lifetime access to this course, yours to revisit forever. An OB Art Circle membership instead opens this course and every other included course to you, for as long as your subscription stays active.
What materials do I need?＋
Each lesson lists what to use. For most ornamental work a sketchbook, pencil, eraser and a fineliner pen are enough to begin.
Is this suitable for my level?＋
This course is pitched at an intermediate level, but every step is demonstrated slowly so motivated beginners can follow along.
How do I pay?＋
Outside India you pay in US dollars through PayPal, by card or with a PayPal account. In India you pay in rupees through Razorpay, by UPI, card or net banking. The currency is picked for you, and the INR and USD switch in the site header or menu changes it.
