    Let me know when Lois gets there with her fudge…I won’t be far behind. (as long as there isn’t any NUTS in the fudge)
    Never thought I’d see the day when a tree rat makes it into the world of fine art. You’ve done well grasshopper.

  • Jan Piller replied

    Oh I was taking a picture of the fence and the squirrel just happened to jump into the shot! Thanks Sir Von! I’ll tell Lois that you want your nuts on the side!

    Your palette channels the medieval masters Jan. You’ve revealed a mood that moves me up a story arc. And after all, art without wonder is merely craft.

    Wonder-full!

    That’s a sweet compliment! Thank you Ted!

    Okay, wait a minute…two things…One, how did I miss this one? You are really doing amazing things with texture lately…artistic, appealing, wonderful. Two, how dare you give my room away??? I’ll gladly share with Lois if she brings enough fudge, though! :) We’ll also have to get her out in a kayak with us! Think we can talk her into getting stuck in a tree with us?? :)

  • Jan Piller replied

    hahaha ! Lois is up for anything I’m sure!! And if not, we’ll teach her!

  • leannasreflections

    I have to agree with Les about you doing amazing things with textures lately. I so enjoy your work. I would love to sit wth you while you edit someday. you have so much to teach me. :) Another masterpiece Jan.

  • Jan Piller replied

    Come on up Leanna!! Free lessons! And free food and free room and board! And free fudge if we can Lois to come too! Aww hell – I’ll supply the fudge even if she doesn’t come!
