    Janet, I knew you would rescue a book I made back in 2015 and was so inexperienced that I just couldn’t move forward. It was lovely to let it go and gift it to you and I am intrigued how it will turn out once you have covered it in wipe off paint. And now I have the honour of a book named after me. Who knew there would be a Barbara book in your house. I loved watching you making painty papers. And the tip of putting different texture on a ring was so helpful. At the moment my art space is in the corner of my kitchen, so I am often having to tidy up. The luxury of having a room where I can leave everything out still eludes me, but it I am still working on it!
