I have been continuing to pay the monthly subscription to Ruzuku so that students who are currently on workshops can get their work finished before I stop teaching online on May 27th. Since inquiring about deleting my subscription to Ruzuku, I have discovered that the students currently on workshops, and any that enrol before midnight on Tuesday 26th May , can view the workshops and videos INDEFINITELY. So if you were put off enrolling on a workshop because you thought the workshops wouldn't be available after the end of May, we were both wrong.

The view wasn't too bad either . . !!!  The painted Bondaweb/Vliesofix drying on the deck.    Starting to build a 'pretty'. I call the process of building up the torn layers 'prettys and backgrounds'. Once you get the hang ...
