Passing This Award On


Nothing will give me more pleasure!





As Sweetmango says...
"The truly beautiful part of this award is that the recipient gets to 'pay it forward' to another 7 people"

These are my 7 special people who I have come to know, formed bonds with through our common love of art and now communicate via the blogging world.
All have touched me in their own special way.

Here are my special 7....

__________

Sandra Wilson

Showcasing her wonderful talent in all mediums it seems. There is nothing Sandra cannot turn her hand at. A retired Art Teacher, Sandra very generously gives of her time still guiding and providing wonderful feedback and support in many art forums.

Those who come to know the woman, are privileged!

Personally... thank you for all your support in art, wise words in life, and most importantly your friendship over the time I have come to know you.

Mimi Torchia Boothby

Simple brush strokes with lots of colors
Painting with watercolours is my passion

MimiTabby as most know her, has a passion for capturing people in everyday situations with 'simple brushstrokes' Her journey in watercolours has been wonderful to watch. She loves her fur babies as much as I do and I was thrilled she has had her first art show as part of a fundraiser for the Feral cat Spay/Neuter project, donating 4 paintings two of which are from her series 'Whimsy Kitties.'

There is so much more to Mimi, than the few words I have said here.
