Artist Heather Adams writes,

"I've been trying out your new Dry Media brushes...they are amazing and I love the textures. This is drawing a I've done from scratch using mainly the Square Chalk brush and Blender.

This drawing was inspired from a painting that I saw hanging in the hotel where I stayed on my recent holiday. Thank you so much for these wonderful brushes, I will be using them often."

Danish freelance illustrator Lars Bjørstrup writes,

Just wanted to say that I am very happy with your great set of Artists' Brushes that I purchased from you last week. Here is my first painting with these brushes as a contribution to your pixlBlog. The painting is a still life based on one of my photographs - and a few notes on the process similar to what you describe in your tutorial videos.
