Oh, Anita!!! Your artwork always shows such great imagination and this art is no exception... I absolutely LOVE how your colors are so vibrant especially against the black frame around the whole page, plus against the black stamped images as well as the stark contrast of the white. GORGEOUS, gorgeous, gorgeous!!! The way that you have blended and melded your ink colors is truly special and exceptional, but then whatever you create is always so special, so very beautiful, and always so individual and so very interesting. What a joy it is to see your art, and to even sometimes see within your art the wheels turning as you are creating, I find that particularly exciting and rare to see in an artist, not that I pretend to have any great knowledge, but I do know that I find your art to be so exciting and really interesting, and I so appreciate when I can learn from an extremely talented artist as I can and do learn from you!!! I love the neat way that you have used your stamping as well as your stenciling, and the beautiful white stencil of the criss-cross lattice at the bottom of the image is so clear at the top, then you use the same stencil in a tone-on-tone manner at the top that provides a neat balance, and such beauty!!!
Thank you for providing me such enjoyment to see your wonderful artwork, something that I can learn from and put into another piece of art-- what a thrill it is to learn from someone whose art is so wonderful, Anita, for I am in literally awe of your work and of you as an artist. Thank you for giving me such pleasure, and I know that you have done the same for many others. I still treasure the supplies you have sent to me for doing some fine hand-stitching, I will use with joy and pleasure--I have been experiencing some health problems that have prevented me from using them but I look forward to using them as soon as I can--I will send you photos and look forward to the time that I can have the pleasure of playing with them, I hope that will be soon.
I have favorited this artwork so that I can re-visit this work and learn more and have more enjoyment looking at it again in detail. Your style is so varied, you have so much talent in many areas, that makes me admire your work even more!
Do stay safe and healthy especially during these very uncertain and challenging times, I do hope that in your area, that conditions are improving. How I appreciate any opportunity to view more of your art, Anita!!!

Love that collage type stamping against your warm colours! So wonderful that the stencilling make such a crisp pattern on the bottom and gets all misty at the top! Beautiful!
