    Sorry about the drawing in landscape orientation It was the format it was videoed in. I hope it wasn't too distracting. But i thought it was a better tradeoff than cropped top and bottom and overall much smaller. Or did you find it too hard to watch? Please let me know in the comments below.

    The unusual angle was actually useful, because it provides a kind of abstraction. (And anything is better than that 'shorts' format.)

    This is really beautiful. I was wondering if your wife still finds your tremendous art skills to be impressive or has she gotten used to them. Thanks for the tips.

    Love what you are doing Stephen. If you don't mind may I request you to keep the audio levels higher for the videos? It will be really helpful. Keep up the great work.

    Thanks Meetinder. I just record on my phone, I thought sound levels were automatic. Perhaps I can adjust them in editing. I’ll ask someone. 😀

    It’s a 210gsm drawing cartridge by Art Tec. A German paper repackaged in Australia. 😀
