    wow! i am so amazed at this! i have always wanted to use a program like this to draw/paint with but have always been too intimidated to try – this is the perfect way to help others learn about technology, and you make it seem so clear and easy. your confidant words along with the smooth sounds of (your) great jazz make this a place i want to come escape to on a daily basis. thank you for shaing you and your talents with the world, laura…what a gift you have! ~rachel 04.07.2011

  34. Anne says:

    Hey there Ms. Laura,

    I’ve seen some of your works on Youtube just a moment ago… they were impressive. I would like to say congratulations now that you have your own Youtube channel and showing the community your creative skills and helping them develop theirs as well.

    I, myself, have also been wanting to be a good digital artist, but unfortunately… fate drilled holes in my pockets. So the only materials I could dab my paintbrushes are on papers and cardboard and stuff… It’s no biggie, but it ain’t no fun either…

    Anyway, don’t forget to celebrate your achievement with much enthusiasm as you draw, and hopefully someday you may expand your community of artists to very high limits.

    Thankfully, I’m not too envious of talented individuals like you, but I’m really damn hoping I can reach the heights you guys reached. Congratulations again!

    Regards,
    Anne

    P.S. Sorry for the very long comment (“-_-)…

  67. Kymberlee says:

    Congratulations!
    I will definitely be enjoying your new channel, thank you!

  68. Bunnyfreak says:

    Don’t have illustrator but glad to know this resource is available.

  69. Anne says:

    Yes… and by the way, I also want to thank you for the tutorials because i recently downloaded a trial of Illustrator and watched some of your tutorials, now I’m learning about vectors and stuff.

    I would also like to thank you for the chance to win a tablet. That would definitely be a great help for aspiring digital artists/ graphic designers and for those who are already professionals.

    I do hope I get a chance because it’s kinda hard to draw with a mouse; mostly undoing things instead of creating things. Like what they say, practice till you bleed…

    Thanks again. (Sorry for double-commenting if it was illegal)

    Regards,
    Anne
