This series is beyond amazing! I went to Charleston for Thanksgiving and now see why you love it so much. I also saw some of your fabulous paintings at the Sylvan Gallery. Kudos girl!!
Unbelievably fantastic! You're well into that 10,000 hour theory from the "Outliers". Practice obviously makes more than perfect. This is wonderful! Thank you for your daily presentations.
