Asp w gdańsku nawet nie ma przedmiotu o kompozycji (o kolorze, perspektywie i właściwie wszystkim co związane z malarstwem też nie). Także niestety nie mam tam żadnych dydaktyków do pomocy. Musze się więc dowiadywać wszystkiego na własną rękę. Chyba wszystkie arkana wiedzy posiada właśnie wschód. Istnieje niewiele tłumaczeń ich podręczników. Nie mogę oderwać się od Imperialnej Akademii. Jestem wniebowzięta, za przywilej tej wiedzy.
