T here are people who simply make life better, and I have a LOT of them in my life. The groups to the left are not in chronological or alphabetical order, but then they didn't come into my life that way.
I am mentioning only still-living people here, and some who I hope are still living. (Another list sometime will list tons of those who have left the earth who made my life better, including the late Robert Genn, whose articles and advice will never be forgotten. And who quoted me in his quotes compendium! And Tom Schafer, who built me a studio during our short time together. |

There are online friends and colleagues who put a big punch of energy into my fuel tank. I have met so many beautiful folks on the LinkedIn forums and in other groups. There are folks who have published really kind and uplifting things online that I save to boost my spirits on rainy days. Here's one that came in today, August 15 2014:
FROM Lucia Neagu, Independent Arts and Crafts Professional "Susan, I looked at your website twice, thinking about you and your work. What impressed me most was the sensitivity, richness of your artistic expressions and the roundness of your interests. You do so many things successfully , even know how to use the computer to benefit your art. You are gifted, well informed, open minded, outspoken with firm convictions , experienced, generous and genuine. It is a pleasure to know and understand your drive in art and , of course, because we are neighbors to meet you soon. Your website presents you very well." ---- And in December 2014Blushing from this comment by artist extrodinaire, Bette Ridgeway: "Susan, your work is magnificent. The presentation of the slide show of the progression in creating an original work is masterful!!! I am now a fan of your work..... " ------ |
