Premium-Wonderful Tool

I purchased premium but unfortunately this 80-yr-old brain could not figure it out. I contacted the help desk and got a very quick response.
“Greg” was very patient and after 3 attempts I’m there. I have trouble doing value sketches. This tool maps it out for you with 3 values. I would highly recommend it to any new artist.
