Vicki Cook: Hello again! I know I'll keep returning because there is something so exciting and unique about your collage work. Honestly, I can't take my eyes off most of the pieces! Do you sell your work? My hope is that you will continue to update Picturetrail so we can see how your art evolves and share your fresh, new ideas! Also I would LOVE to trade an ATC with you ~ just email me for a link to view my available cards (all 1/1). xo January 15, 2008 10:16PM Tara Finlay: Karenann, I have lost track of you over the years. How are you? Come check out my new work at http://bytara.blogspot.com. Still rocking your art!!!! Tara November 24, 2007 8:23PM Kristine: Dear Karenann, I think your tribute altered book journal "Tuscon" is fabulous, and love the way you use paint. "Tuscon" inspired me to create an altered book about a recent trip to Mexico, instead of a stuffy scrapbook, and it has been a blast! I've read everything I can find that you've written on techniques, but how do you manage those wonderful southwest backgrounds like the Saguaro Cactus Page with the turquoise color peeling in places and the the burnt orange showing underneath? Not by sanding...please share! August 11, 2007 8:00PM vicki cook: Karen - Your art is stunning and so inspiting! Really breath-taking.....I'm an instant fan! Please email me if you have a blog or additional website-thanks! xoxox take a peek at my blog: http://beautyofthegarden.blogspot.com April 7, 2007 6:44AM Donna: My Mom just died a couple of weeks ago and I'm making a sewing-themed art shrine about her. I found your site via Artella. I'm reeling with ideas now and ignoring my executrix duties because I can't stop looking. What gorgeous stuff. December 13, 2006 8:48AM Beaches: I would love to know where you get your art for your inspiring designs! They are beautiful! March 1, 2006 6:57AM Jolande: I've seen your work at ARTchix gallery,googled your name and came here on Picturetrail. Wow what a gorgeous work I see here, you are definitely one of my favs, Karen!! Jolande The Netherlands December 30, 2005 7:01AM Lorraine/Glimmering Prize: Wow! I think that's all I can say. Your work is so inspiring and beautiful. Thank you for posting it with Art-e-zine, so I could find it. Amazing! November 28, 2005 3:18PM Alecia Ackerman Grimm: Your work is inspiring & thought provoking. Thank you for sharing it. September 25, 2005 10:01PM Delila: I have found one of my favorite artist, after i saw your art :) www.sepiaartstudio.com August 29, 2005 10:33PM Carla Naron: Hi Sweets, I just enjoyed a leisurely stroll through your gallery and have come away so inspired. YOU ROCK! much love, C July 6, 2005 1:39PM Toni Curtis: OH MI GOSH!!!! What can I say except all of your work is absolutely beautiful. I could spend hours and hours just admiring. It's like looking at a coffee table book full of beauty. June 24, 2005 6:51AM Elizabeth Hogg: Karenann, your work is awesome. I came to the mailart from art-e-zine and am bowled over by it. There are so many details, such good colour and every placing is just right. I long to try it and know I could not do so well. I loved the journal pieces too. June 23, 2005 3:18PM Cris Cunningham: I love your recent pieces. You never cease to amaze me! xoxo, Cris C June 22, 2005 8:38PM carol rose Parker: I always check in at "new stuff" at art-e-zine.com, and just saw your pieces of postcard mail art. I was very fascinated and entertained — and envious of your ephemera collection. But mostly, I am enchanted by your ability to put things together — especially when you use a few words that seem to say exactly what the person in the vintage photo is saying/thinking. I've collected vintage and antique photos forEVER it seems, and have used them in other ways in my artwork; but you have inspired me to try new ways of using them. They (the people in the photos) are always so full of information that is just waiting to be interpreted by someone: artist, patron or both! Thank you for your beautiful work! June 15, 2005 1:07AM Xebarts: I LOVE your artwork!!! You were referred to me by Lisaof NM. I would also like to be friended on your LJ if you are willing? I am Xebarts on LJ. Great work!!! :D Thanks for sharing!

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your pics with the world. I love to browse your site and see all of your creative genius. I would love to use some of your art in my zine, ABZ. Please drop me a line to discuss this. Thanks! Autumn Clark December 26, 2004 3:26PM Tammy: Hi Karenann, I've long admired your beadwork in the Artchix gallery (among your other wonderful things!) I'm curious how you create the pieces such as the star ornament on the holiday gallery page. I'd love to learn. Anyway, I love your work...thank you for putting it out in the world! cheers...tammy www.itsmysite.com/tammygilleystudios December 3, 2004 2:58PM maggie phelan: I love your work so much! Every time I check in, I'm more bowled over than ever by what you do. Your Fallout Shelter journal is beautiful, & very touching... "Hiding & Invisible" is particularly poignant for me. Where do you find your inspiration? Thanks for sharing all that you do! October 1, 2004 11:27AM Corey Moortgat: Hi Karenann, I like the new fallout shelter book (I love miniatures!). I'm curious about the ornate metal-looking trim on the cover. Is that real metal, or german foil? Where'd you get it? Thanks-you're stuff is great! ~Corey September 27, 2004 9:36PM Céline NAvarro: WOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! is all i can say! You rock girlfriend!!!:D September 19, 2004 2:58PM Katie Kendrick: Karenann, Your artwork is inspiring and enchanting...

June 8, 2004 7:11AM Victoria Sylvestre: Karen, these pieces are incredibly detailed and very interesting to try to diseminate their meaning. I would love to read the book that you could write that would tell us the behind the scenes story. June 6, 2004 4:51AM michel merle: Very elegant work. I use found objects in my work, but it is usually rusted and in a state of shattered abandonment. May 16, 2004 11:41PM Theresa Hall: Karenann, I have always been in awe of your art.
