It is cozy and looks so great with all your art work on the walls. Amazing to me that it was once your own bedroom as a girl.

I know Julian and her angels are very moving to look at. Your art, as you must know, is really pretty. I don't know how you do some of the techniques you do, but they turn out so neat. I love that you support other artists too. Often this is so rare.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04462378600522778350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067029835809758053.post-86637671969612413732010-04-15T18:23:10.592-04:002010-04-15T18:23:10.592-04:00How neat and tidy your workspace is.

Seems this room is the room from Harry Potter that is whatever you need it to be at the time you need it to be. <br /><br />Your Elizabeth is beautiful and I think you hit the drawing just right. While I am by no means a judge or an art critic, I did want to offer a bit of advice that is yours to discard or ponder. The flowers in the background seem to lead my eye all over, with no place to land. The one stem creates a line that draws my eye right off the page. The other flowers aren't connected to anything and creates a bit of discord to me.<br /><br />That said, the drawing of Elizabeth is gorgeous and you should be very proud. Keep creating!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02632197170824736812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067029835809758053.post-3598257335884812562010-04-15T12:49:49.022-04:002010-04-15T12:49:49.022-04:00Diane your art room looks lovely, it was so nice t...Diane your art room looks lovely, it was so nice to see it,and all the beautiful arts on your walls, love your "patchwork" pictures they are wonderful.<br />AnniMy Creative House https://www.blogger.com/profile/07953405003484550777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067029835809758053.post-39517503257326335472010-04-15T08:03:53.818-04:002010-04-15T08:03:53.818-04:00Your art room is so clean and tidy,I use my kitche...Your art room is so clean and tidy,I use my kitchen,I have a room but for some reason I end up in my kitchen.

That is OK I may not quilt for a little while as I have a painting mood.<br /><br />YOur art room has know a lot of fine times, and been with you for a lot of things. That is always why you hear people say "If those walls could talk". Also I think of an old Country Western song, Faron Young, "Hello Walls" Maybe they crack with the burst of information.<br /><br />So pretty to see art on the wall and recognize it, and also you tip on how you made it look like on a canvas, I like that idea a lot.<br /><br />I really have to get down and do some major tidying up as things have gotten so messy from my preparation to the show. I will I can't stand horrible messes. <br /><br />Enjoyed your post so muchEmelienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067029835809758053.post-29922046303420613592010-04-14T13:12:22.493-04:002010-04-14T13:12:22.493-04:00diane, elizabeth is truly beautiful including all ...diane, elizabeth is truly beautiful including all her surroundings! but i know exactly how you feel in your finished product. good people remind me all the time.."someone else LOVES your piece"!! i just love your story..how great is that to be creating in your old bedroom..tear drops here! xo wandawandamarie.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15527818434337586519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067029835809758053.post-46726733592474369822010-04-14T12:21:37.184-04:002010-04-14T12:21:37.184-04:00Thanks for sharing your space with us - it's g...Thanks for sharing your space with us - it's great to see where you create all your fabulous pieces :) Looking at all the comments here I think your outnumbered, yes Elizabeth definitely gets the thumbs up!jbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16465195156763157286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067029835809758053.post-4505043234837956812010-04-14T11:38:03.230-04:002010-04-14T11:38:03.230-04:00Your art room is beautiful, but I would call it a ...Your art room is beautiful, but I would call it a studio because that's what it looks like to me.
