I wouldn't be able to do it if I did a million before this. <br />The light passing through the iced tea couldn't have been more real.<br />Really well done.

I considered being a writer instead of a visual artist when I was a teenager but decided I couldn't devote energies to both at the same time and become as adept as I hoped to be with either choice. I have continued to be a journal keeper though and am now involved in writing "memoirs" which I hope to self publish. I too am enamoured of writers and frequently write fan letters to my favorite authors - often the write back which is a real thrill for me. Would love to read your novels!Karen Martin Sampsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15180294856179918446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320847148928421544.post-66793247786570494122011-09-17T00:26:54.593-07:002011-09-17T00:26:54.593-07:00Beautiful painting, Crystal.

Everybody knows how amazing your portraits are, there are none better than yours - but you know that sometimes artists stick within their comfort zone and avoid other subjects, so you never really know what else they can do - I didn't realise that you could paint still lives with the same beauty and life as you do portraits. I mean I would have guessed, but there's nothing like seeing the real thing. This really is extraordinary! I reeeeeeeally want to see more!!! :0DSandra Busbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622208510609673242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320847148928421544.post-64717117009588699712011-09-16T05:43:57.143-07:002011-09-16T05:43:57.143-07:00Bravo Crystal.
