Excellent presentation, in wondrous detail, which was very useful. Lots of tips about different animals too, not just cats. As far as Ms. Nice's work, this is terrific. 5 starts are for her.
HOWEVER, Artist TV has screwed up technically. The presentation is well over 2 hours long but, for some reason, after an hour and a half, it thinks you need to start over again and puts a big PLAY AGAIN notice right over what she is doing. You can't see the details of her lovely work and you can't pause it once that appears. I tried and it started all over again. So I have to sit through everything after an hour and a half, just to see the end of the presentation. Very annoying. I'd give only 1 star to Artist TV because of the technical difficulties.

Very well done! Presentation starts with drawing circles and ovals and triangles to approximate shape, then gradually they are refined. I really appreciated the examples and explanations of eyes - both the light reflections and the way hair/fur grows around it. The use of blending tools was illustrated quite nicely. Ms. Nice gives good explanations as to why she does what.
