My Jayne,

Good work.

I do hope you are becoming very fascinated by the balance of these abstractions of math and imagery. If not already, then soon you will see the world with enhanced understanding due to these very studies.

Let the out-of-reach books be dismissed. Proceed with the folding and tiling; mastering geometric folding is the mark of excellence, as demonstrated by the origami article.

Once you've finished these, and I've approved of them, I will advance you from geometry for now, and connect things to perspective study.

With that said, let me be clear about something, My Jayne.

Understand that our relationship is impossible without mutual trust; you trust in my wisdom, and I trust in your curiosity and passion.

It is expected of you to meet my demands, yes, but it is also expected that you strive for an inside-out understanding of the entire world at large, starting with my art lessons.

You cannot become any more than a puppet of education if you do not wire yourself to question everything. Wait for an alleged truth to be approved by your judgment before accepting it as truth, even if it's considered axiomatic.
This is the Art of Heroism.

Never enslave yourself to one who will not teach you to become free of needing a Dominus.
I will see that you emerge from the coming months or years taking flight on your own, no longer needing residence under my broad wing.
You must meditate on this.

Captain
