Hi!
My arm is getting better slowly and can tolerate a little drawing movement, but...

Lyn,
Thank you for your words....Yes I have seen Heartfelts' work. So beautiful.....Back when Shannon was born no one even did photographs, I was told by Shannon's Mum. I have though long and hard about this kind of portraiture for a long time and it has been welcomed so far... I am a very spiritual person and when I draw a portrait of any kind, I 'tune" in. I felt very calm and serene whilst drawing Shannon, and without going into details, was told I captured that. I have also learnt (although it took me a long time) that tears are the biggest compliment that can be paid to me for my work, for it means I have captured the very essence of the subject.
Makes me feel very blessed to have my talent to share..
