I have just finished the course and would like to thank Michelle for creating this course and sharing all her secrets to her success! Her course will take you through everything you need to know from what supplies to buy, materials to prepare, to the techniques of bottle painting step by step. She'll also share how to set up onsite and how to make income as an onsite bottle painter for luxury brands or commission work. So you'll not only learn the techniques and skills of bottle painting itself, you'll also learn how to get your foot in the door and get hired to do this for income as well as how to market yourself! Through and through a very worthy and well thought out course. I'm so excited to take what I've learned into practice and many even get a job or two from it! Thank you so much Michelle!:) Your grateful student, Rancy, from @calligraphybyrancy
