Enzie,
YIPPEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy and proud! This is well deserved, your painting is beautiful. You are growing by leaps and bounds and I am impressed that you have stuck to the subject matter you are most passionate about. We paint what is in the deepest parts of us. Your jury of peers recognize that in your work.

Than you Alex!

Patti you made me smile. What a wonderful, nice comment from a friend!
Thank you! I always keep in mind what Marvin once said to us in one of the workshops. It went somewhat like this:

"We are like farmers. We will have to plow the fields and spend a great amount of time preparing the ground to ready it for the seeds. Then we plant and wait....."

Some of us have to wait longer than others, but eventually the labor of love pays off and we can bring in the harvest. In due time even the wind takes some of our seeds and scatters them in other places, making others aware that there is a field blooming in some corner of the world.
