I love your landscape called "Algarve Spring", you can almost feel the warm breeze blowing the flowers around in the fields. Breathtakingly beautiful. Feels like a sneak peak at Heaven!

Did you paint before your husbands portrait or was it a fluke you started painting because your husbands original portrait was so bad?

I enjoyed viewing your card gallery. That's how I started my whole collection. I needed a card for a wedding and designed my own for my friends, they liked it and encouraged me to keep designing more.

That's funny about the party. Thanks for your uplifting comments about my work. I love your profile pic, very festive, shows your sense of humor. I just finished my Christmas card I designed for our family. I'll load it on later.

Hi Sandie, you have so many very lovely pieces. I want to make a list of my favorites, but it got to long. Let's see, you did a wonderful job with the "Tall Ships". I love the people and portratis, especially "Grandpa Walter". Your flowers are beautiful. Great work. ~Marianne
