I watched a few more of your videos and they are all very quiet so I subscribed and put them in my playlist because I watch drawing videos late at night and can't stand loud voices or music. Thanks for great videos.

    Zin, I'm soaking up all of your demos/tutorials and learning so much each time. I am not looking forward to the day that I run out of them. Like running off the edge of the planet into space (if it were flat, of course) and alone in the darkness. Repeating many times would surely ingrain them more into memory. I am certain that you spent many hours learning, repeating and getting more proficient each time as we all must do. Then it is a matter of talent that separates the greats from the wannabes.
