Can wait to meet you....I think that it is important to clarify the difference between sketches, illustrations and renderings... Also... are we going to address Sketchup and Maya software as a drawing toll ? Thanks
Thank you! I learned so many good tricks and techniques at your Workshop. Very pleased with the experience. My most favorite part was to see you in action at the end when you used the pastels to sketch Falling Water. The room was silent as we mesmerized over your talent. Thank you!
Thank you! Taking your workshop was an incredible experience. It was great to hone my skills with new learned tricks. The best part of the Workshop was to see you in action while drawing Falling Water in monochromatic pastels. I enjoyed your handouts and appreciated your advice. I learned a lot from you Mr. Lin. Prior to the 2day workout, I had doubts on how much I could learn from you but was pleasantly surprised to see the before and after improvements. Thank you!
The pleasure was all mine. I gained so much in many different ways. I have a goal to sketch something everyday using the techniques you shared, the results are incredible. I am really enjoying sharing them with friends and colleagues. Thanks for sharing your gifts.
The site is great and has inspired me a lot with my designs and sketching style. I will spread the word about the Beloose page to others on my course. Thanks again
Yes I'm continuing to sketch and enjoy life. I hae been doing plants in my back yard lately, beautiful spring in Florida Amaryllis everywhere. Hope you are doing well also. You know what they say about, "people who can't take a joke"!
Greetings--and thanks for the welcome. I'm interested in knowing if you all will be coming to the midwest any time in the next 6 months...specifically Chicago or Minneapolis? Thanks!
It was a pleasure to meet you at the University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ. All your tricks were very helpful and I truyly enjoyed your jokes. It was a once in a lifetime workshop.
Thank you for the inspiring workshop. I have not smiled (and laughed) for quite some time. I not only learned some "tricks" in drawing, I learned the "tricks" to being a successful person. I definately hope our paths cross again in the future
Your workshop was so much fun and very helpful! Thank you for all the laughs and very useful tricks. I am very happy to have spent two days with you. I hope to see you again soon. Good luck in everything!
Thanks to both you and Brian for making the blog post a "Tip of the Week" - I'm extremely flattered, and glad to hear you - along with some members - found the information useful.
Tom is my brother. Not sure if you know that he passed away in 2008. I have very little drawing talent having been an accountant for the past 35 years; just thought I would see if I could teach an old dog (me, 64 years) new tricks.
Thanks for allowing me to participate in this past week's workshop as a TA. It was an outstanding experience to meet all the attendees from around the globe and pick up some new tricks. In addition, I got to sketch and draw some just for me. The workshop has progressed so much since I took it 20 years ago, and greatly appreciate the experience......both times!
This website is excellent! I wish I would have found you guys sooner. I'm a recent Landscape Architecture graduate looking to fine tune my craft. Thanks for providing such an awesome site!
Awesome time at the June workshop! Very invigorating. Great place to meet people from all over the globe in the profession. Hope to not wait so long in between workshops next time.
Had a great week. I knew I would learn a lot, but I didn't realize people from all over the world would be there. It was great to share the week with such a diverse group of
people. It was a great experience!
Thanks so much for everything, Mike. I very much enjoyed the workshop and learned a lot. I would be delighted to bring the kids to a future workshop, and would be delighted to come as an assistant, TA or whatever. I am not sure though, how much help I would be in helping people draw though.
You are the best of the best Mike, it was an honor and a gift in this world to be with you for the time we had. A wonderful and delightful group of people, a phenomenal teacher and educator like yourself, what more could anyone ever ask for. It does not get any better than this!
If you are ever planning a trip to Calgary/Banff, please do let us know, we would be delighted to host you and your family anytime.
Hey Mike! I'm so excited to talk to you again! I over the last year I am sorry to say that I have ignored my art talent and I lost some of it. But don't worry I am searching to regain my art skills and I thought Id join your site for more tips and help. I wasn't expecting a freind request from you! I am excited to be in touch with you again and I feel it would help me a lot to talk to you. I hope we talk more. Erick.

Hi Mike, Thanks for all your excellent posts and tips. Suggestion for last minute Holiday shopping: GIVE YOUR FRIENDS A SKETCHBOOK WITH PEN AND PENCIL! Especially good for young kids, who need to start drawing by hand before being consumed by digital technology! Best wishes, Paul
