Want to take a moment to express my gratitude for all the likes, comments and reposts of the art I am posting here. I do take the time to reply and send my thanks. I may have missed some however. If so, it was not intentional. Thank you all. I appreciate you.

Hi Cass, Hope you and yours are doing well. Thank you for the encouragement to sign up for MidJourney. I went for the basic 1yr package. Slowly working through the get started guide. My initial impression is that this could be the best sketchbook I ever had. Thanks again.

Thank you Cass. I admire you for moving past your condition and embracing a new way to touch people with your talent. I am at a similar point. I am going to set up an account there. Thanks so much for your message back.

Greetings Cass. I love the art you are posting. As a painter, did you find MidJourney preferable to other options? Is MidJourney a place that artists, wanting to test out AI, are welcomed? Thank you.

Will there be a point where posting to Twitter will tarnish your reputation or brand? In the early days Twitter became an excellent platform for Journalists. Many a career benefited from posting. Now your content is mixing with some, for lack of better term, slop. Hard to give up that follow list?
