    Thanks Mike, I Look forward to participating

  • Jose Fernandez

    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

  • Tommy Thurston

    I finally wrote a testimonial mike, so check it out.

  • Carmen Santana Telesca

    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!
  • Carmen Santana Telesca

    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!

    Hi Mike,

    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. 

  • Aron Downing

    Hi Mike, Thanks for the warm welcome. 

    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

    Hi Mike.  Did you change how to add images on member profile sites?  When I now try to add images, the process is unhappy.  Yours in communications, Jon

    Ps  I think before I was just able to paste or drag them in from my computer.

  • Gregory Colangelo

    Hi Mike,

    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"!

  • Mira Lee

    Wow! Mike thank you so much for the welcome :)

    I really enjoyed brian's workshop! I learned a lot and I am so happy that I learned about this amazing website!

    Thanks again!

  • Kathleen Sanders

    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!

    Hi Mike,

    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.

    Respectfully,

    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

    Thank You

    Abigail.

    Mike -

    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.

  • David Papandrew

    Mike

    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.

  • Moira Gannon Denson

    Hi Mike and Brian!
    Any east coast workshops in the near future?  
  • rock.heindel

    Thanks! Appreciate it!
    Hoping to be able to attend one of your seminars but in the meantime I enjoy your website.
  • Jeff Roberts

    Mike,

    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!

    Hey Mike, 

    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!

  • Dave Wells

    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.

  • Greg Tice

    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!
  • Piyush Consul

    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.

    Kindest Regards

    Thanks for wishing me a happy birthday! It's so great to see how this site has grown in the last couple of years. The content is top notch; it's great to see so many people contributing. It seems that you've been quite the world traveler with your work; I'm so happy for you. Maybe I'll see you in your CA neighborhood sometime!

  • Jennifer Paredes

    Thank you :)

  • Helen Marshall Adamietz

    Thank you for your lovely welcome wishes Mike:) I have let my classmates in the Interior Design Program at Alexandria Technical College know that they can sign up on your site. One of our teachers attended your workshops and speaks volumes about the techniques learned and incredible improvement because of your guidance. I look forward to learning lots, and will surely attend one of your workshops as soon as I can.

    Thanks for the welcome Mike - I really enjoyed your workshop last year here in New Zealand.  It made a massive difference to my drawings.  thanks again Dave

  • Paul Fenner

    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
