I'm somewhat nonplussed by all of these comments, which I sincerely appreciate. As I told Minh, I only teach sporadically, somewhat because of space limitations which I hope to rectify in the coming year. But mostly it's because I see myself as a struggling student and am usually stumbling about in "learner's mind" and it doesn't occur to me.
Minh, and everyone, take advantage of whatever opportunities for learning come your way, wherever you find them. I lost a decade after art school not using my training, and have had to run to catch up in these last years.
Consequently, the only REAL mistake I think anyone makes is to stop working in the face of adversity. All other hurdles can be overcome with time and practice.
And, holy cow (!) please call me Tom.
