      I love your art, never fails to inspire me. Is there a way I can send you something? I’ve been watching you for years & want to give back to you. Something useful I think you might like. I live in Perth, West Australia so need to rely on international post. I am unsure if it’s best to text you this query through Facebook? If it’s possible. I’m the “pre-internet” generation so never mastered social media. Kind regards, Linda

    I’m baaack! It’s 12/30/24 and I’m stuck, can’t seem to do anything worthwhile. So back to your fabulous bookmarks in part because I gifted myself with some metallic paints from Lisilinka. They are fabulous and I can’t use them without your voice in my head; perhaps that’s why I had to come back for a refresher course in simple elegance. 😉

    These bookmarks are so aesthetic... However simple it may look, recreating this level of aesthecism is going to be quite difficult! There is an overall Japanese feel to the illustrations, like origami...😍👏👍

    Thank you so much for all that you do. Your tutorials and soothing voice have inspired me to begin painting as a way to deal with the loss of both parents in 2021. I can't tell you how you have helped bring me back to the present moment and find gratitude again for this amazing life we have. Blessing to you, and I really appreciate your gifts. It's much more than painting, btw!

    These are wonderful, and your tutorial is, as always, well done, easy to follow, and relaxing, even. These designs can easily be turned into greeting cards. Gonna go make some for my mom, who is an avid reader, and loves when I do art for her. Even though I'm officially old by government standards now (65), she still puts my art on the fridge sometimes, like when I was a kid. Thank you Ceecee!
