I have been looking at the net and finding artists that show their finished projects and I found the best site ever when I found yours. You are so very talented and I want to thank you very sincerely for sharing your work. It gives me a goal to strive for although I think it will be years to ever be as good as you are. I also enjoyed the pictures of your family. I would say that you are very blessed with talent and with a great family. May God continue to bless your talents.

I have been stenciling for about 11 years in my home and for gifts. I started one stroke last summer learning with Donna's books and videos. I recently heard of Donna Lee and love her work sooooo much. I bought her videos and am trying to learn her fabulous rose. Not very easy!!! I call her the queen of painting. How long have you been with the group? Your church will be very happy with your beautiful work you will do for them. Thanks for sharing. I live in Victoria, B.C.

April 9, 2004 6:19AM Laura: Gail, Love the milk can and the black T shirt. I was gonna try those "damp fabric" instructions too, did some on a sample piece and had too much "bleeding" and haloing to suit me so went back to textile medium and folk art. Want to teach OS so can't use So Softs ! I have a couple of other questions if you don't mind emailing me when you have a few moments. The LIly card is great, I didn't like the sample on th group so didn't try. Thanks, Laura April 8, 2004 12:57PM Pamela in Los Angeles: Gail your work is Fabulous! The colors, technique, simply fabulous.

April 7, 2004 12:59PM Gerry Wildberger: I absolutely love your cross with lillies. It's always so refreshing to see things that people have painted when they think "outside the box", and don't just copy what they have seen everywhere else. Lovely, absolutly lovely. Your Pastor will be thrilled, how blessed he is to have you. Happy Easter, Gerry April 7, 2004 5:40AM Tammi Barnes: I love your new t-shirt.

You do such nice painting on so many different things. Thanks for sharing your album. Anita August 23, 2003 10:48AM dottye: so enjoyed your pictures, what is the on line course you mentioned? Babet's? Re the jar with the lid turned upside down, I have made some using mayo or canning jars, put in dried fruit (that I dried myself), bought the votive candle holders from walmart and used them. They will fit in the top of the jar great, and the candle will only stick up a short way. I then tied ribbon or rafia around. You can glue the votive candle if you want, I left my as I didn't want to seal it. When the candle burned, you could smell the dried fruit. I mainly used orange slices and nuts. I made 21 one them for gifts for a function, and everyone thought they were so pretty. August 16, 2003 10:40AM cathy: Great use of recycling on your candle jar!
