    Good morning Paul from the state of Wyoming USA!
    Just wanted you to know I have been watching your tutorials for almost 2 years, subscribed to your channel as well. Gave up my art to raise a family, and just in the last couple of years got back into it. Stumbled across one of your videos and have been hooked ever since!
    I practice your techniques a lot, I paint along with a lot of your videos, and really have gotten my confidence back. So, thank you again for being such a great, and selfless human when you are teaching!
    Happy 2024!
