I just adore collections of things and you seem to have so many. I was really amazed at the amount of work you have too! Wow. Looks like a beautiful place and a lovely space for an exhibition. I loved the shelves and would have liked to have a good look at them in person. Well done. Looks great.andrea joseph's sketchbloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17074404376405604742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977564569973321926.post-36716959375755726932007-09-15T17:34:00.000+01:002007-09-15T17:34:00.000+01:00Oh my, this one is absolutley stunning Eileen.

I have ...Hello Milly, Thank you for your comments! I have had a look at the lovely video that your daughter made. It really is quite spendid. Congratulations to both of you.<BR/><BR/>I am laughing about what your site says about not being able to do without drawing. Maybe I am the other side of that! Not only can I imagine it, I involuntarily live it. Still hoping to figure out a way to both keep my financial demands steady and still be able to "do what I would really like to do."<BR/><BR/>I am a patient person!<BR/><BR/>Milly, it really was wonderful to see you getting the exhibition ready. You have so many beautiful pieces. Thhe framing that you used is very much along the lines of what I used to use for my etchings. <BR/><BR/>When I used to (seems a lifetime ago) exhibit my very big colored pencil drawings ... one single shell on a single sheet of hot press fabriano artistio watercolor paper ... the paper would sort of be floated against whatever the backing was. It is so long ago, I cannot quite remember.<BR/><BR/>But all would be in a frame, with a width very much along the proportions of what you used. (The drawings were big, so framing was very expensive.) That could have been a reason that I moved back into oil painting, thinking that a stretched canvas, or wooden board could hang on its own.<BR/><BR/>Don't we artist make odd decisions?<BR/><BR/>xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.com
