No doubt. But your lessons are universal and timeless, so one day maybe. I appreciate your help.

I just read it. I think you are right, and i like the pen on paper. I tried it last year. Theres something about it that ... forces you to either think, or just go crazy because ... well... i don't know, you worded it better in your article. And absolutely i will draw in ink to improve.

But, honesty, the website is too big for phones. Why not package it in to an app, you know, and obviously you probably have thought if this, i wouodnt know, but i use my phone for everything, and sliding pages around the screen, well its not ideal. So an app that presents the information in a mobile freindly way would be a great thing for me personally, but maybe perhaps not enough people for it to be worth it.

But also. I like to ramble a bit, so forgive me if i sound abrupt or stupid. :)

This is awesome. Ive taken up sketching. This block way of looking at things is very interesting but seems very difficult. I should maybe teach myself this, but your guide is very good. It just seems that i have tried to look at your website but find it too intimidating. Maybe you have an app, i will check. But wow, would this be good in an app.

I digressed there, but what i actually wanted to say is that i always had a affinity with drawing, but i let it go. And for a couple of years ive had a phone with a stylus so i have re-entered the fold.

I use sketchbook pro, but i have very littke guidance there. And i have noticed your tutorials. I dont know if theres a bunch of you or you're a solo practintioner/teacher, but, well, i guess its a niche- but as a i think of it, how many people draw on tabkets here? Or is it mostly paper. Anyway, ive digressed again.

What i really wanted to say was i wish i could have an art fundamentals app, and that that would be the ultimate fusion of learning for me. But i guess i can fiddle with the website.

Anyway. I dont mean to sound grouchy about it, but it might be usefuk to you to know that someonr out there might want somethibg like that, though i woukd do my research by taking a poll or something.

But, obviously that wasnt waht i wanted to talk about, but what i wanted to do was to say thank you for all your effort. Even this box thing, i feel ove kearned something by just looking at them, and i will probably try and replicate it and see what new skill, or fraction of skill emerges from my future drawings.

Sorry about the meandering reply, but i have adopted a kind of very loose style of writing which requires no editing.
