Hi Ann, just a brief visit after a long forced absence. I have to say it, though Val is my own OC, I so seldom see such a fine and lovely blend of colors used in works of art here at DA. Perhaps I haven't looked far or deep enough, but you do, indeed, have such a skill. It takes my breath when you make such efforts with it. Truly, I am impressed all over again.



I hope you are well, and I hope to be in touch eventually once I deal with a few personal and unfortunately serious health challenges. Real life always overrides the needs of our private souls and psyches. Nevertheless, it is a goal of mine to see certain fictional characters brought to life through art as only you would do it.



(((hugs for you )))



I have been holding a personal prayer for you (should any diety exist) so that you should be well and happy in the Ukraine during such difficult times. So relieved to see you are still here... More later...
