Merry Christmas

Good morning everyone. This has been an amazing year. Crisis AND great joy. I can't say they were evenly balanced, but both of them wonderful teachers. One of the joys is my world here, in blogland. This is an amazing place - I can't begin to tell each of you how much you touch my life on a regular basis and make it richer. I am thankful and want to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas! I leave you with two of the 'December challenge' pieces configured in a possible duo. I will continue to work in my studio over the holidays and you can check in to see what is happening on my flickr page which you can click on in the sidebar. I will catch up with all of you after the holidays. Peace and Joy to all who pass here. xxo

Love your December challenge. You got a lot of work done. Did you come to any conclusions about the relationship of time spent to results? Because honestly, every one of them looks amazing. Happy holidays, Jeanne, and looking forward to seeing more of your work in 2010.

Happy Happy Christmas Jeane, to you and your family too.

It has been an amazing year...still can't believe we actually met in NY (did that really happen)?
Have loved following your blog...from acrylic to oil and galleries to websites!...WOW what a whirlwind journey you have taken us on.
Looking forward being here in 2010.

Best wishes to you and yours for the Holidays..and for an especially good New Year!
One of the hightlights of my year was the confluence of events that allowed for us to meet right here in NYC, sitting in my living room, chatting like old friends..which I hope will continue for a long time..this is what can happen from blogging!! Amazing!
