The colors are beautiful, an whimsical! I have enjoyed reading about your shop, and had hoped to visit it sometime. But alas, you have moved on, and now I will enjoy reading about your new adventures! I can totally imagine, how you would have to mourn the store, since so much of your heart an soul would have been poured into it 24/7. But, I so get what you mean about negative stuff. And criticism is hard to take.....like the bumper sticker says...Mean people suck! Recently I sold some of my pieces to a local store to sell. I thought that I would be so excited, but when I picked up the check, it was kind of a let down. I was so much more thrilled, when I sold my pieces directly to the customer who was going to enjoy them. So I would guess that is how you would have felt everyday with your customers...making them happy, with the "perfect" thing or gift for someone. So I wish you the best of luck, in any new endeavor the comes your way!! I love your art!! The colors are beautiful, an whimsical!

And, BTW, I love the pink and blue sketch just above . . . any surprise since those are my favorite colors!
