Hi Linda,

I greatly admire your work also and have followed your posts and referenced your website for months. Related to the entire population of a small town in Southwestern Ontario, hmmm? That's not uncommon around here; Brandon must be your married name? Don't tell me you're a Brubacher or a Martin!

Hey Michele,

I am going to look into the Angel Academy also. A year ago-ish I re-applied to the studio art program at U of Guelph (I left in fourth year), but came to the conclusion that it might just be a waste of time and money, as you found at Queen's. I think the art market in Canada is very backward in many ways, but there is a TON of money in Waterloo area and I am cautiously optimistic. About 10 years ago I did a booming trade in pet portraits and was regularly asked to do people, too. They were all cheap and though the pets were good, the humans were very second rate. I'm not going there again, I want to produce the caliber of work that I see coming from people such as yourselves and the many others I have seen here and elsewhere.

Thanks to both of you for your warm welcomes.
