She is one of my favorites. I was happy to find your blog once again after someone had mentioned you as a favorite. I had seen your stained glass window drawing back in January and failed to bookmark your site. I look forward to catching up on your work--especially the interior and nature drawings. My deepest sympathy for the loss of your great grandchild. You and your family will be in my prayers.

I simply cant wait to get back to them as I feel they so suit my active mind and feeling of personal creativity.... Mainly because I am now painting in oils and I find the textural pieces work better in acrylics. <BR/><BR/>So sorry Amy - have responded in your own blog and re-sent a comment to the penhallowstreet blog. Thank you for your prayerful thoughts.Joan Sandford-Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04228835690449964257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5363771184265614010.post-19962033688598800242008-08-27T03:10:00.000+01:002008-08-27T03:10:00.000+01:00Hello Joan~Thank you so much for visiting me.This ...Hello Joan~<BR/>Thank you so much for visiting me.<BR/>This is a little funny, because~ I think you have mistaken me for Pen Hallow St.~ That is wonderful for me, because I love Pen H.S.~<BR/>You mentioned me having a new grand baby~ I am old enough to have a grandchild, but I was a late bloomer<BR/>and my children are 18, 16, 14, & 7.<BR/>But~ all that aside~ it was a wonderful mistake as far as I'm concerned.
