      I love your art, never fails to inspire me. Is there a way I can send you something? I’ve been watching you for years & want to give back to you. Something useful I think you might like. I live in Perth, West Australia so need to rely on international post. I am unsure if it’s best to text you this query through Facebook? If it’s possible. I’m the “pre-internet” generation so never mastered social media. Kind regards, Linda

    These bookmarks are so aesthetic... However simple it may look, recreating this level of aesthecism is going to be quite difficult! There is an overall Japanese feel to the illustrations, like origami...😍👏👍

You are very talented and I have learned so much by watching your videos. When I need a mood boost or a creative lift I rewatch some of your older videos. I love your bookmarks and yes I too was thinking gold like everyone else

    These are wonderful, and your tutorial is, as always, well done, easy to follow, and relaxing, even. These designs can easily be turned into greeting cards. Gonna go make some for my mom, who is an avid reader, and loves when I do art for her. Even though I'm officially old by government standards now (65), she still puts my art on the fridge sometimes, like when I was a kid. Thank you Ceecee!

It's much more than painting, btw!
