Sheila Tajima and Carrie Jacobson, the talented and generous women who have launched the Art for Shelter Animals Project , sent this lovely thank you for my donation of a few dollars to help the cause. They have a unique spin on linking visual artists with local shelters. Sheila and Carrie are energetic in their support of animals in need of homes, and in their support of their fellow artists. Thank you both!
Speaking of energy and drive, the indomitable Cathyann Burgess, has sent along the Lemonade Award given to bloggers who show gratitude and a positive attitude. Cathyann is a prolific and talented painter from Virginia whose site has some of the most lovely springtime daffodils, not to mention my favorite e.e. cummings quote. I'm honored, Cathyann. Thank you.
Phenomenal father and painter Tom Pohlman zapped the Passionate Painting Award back my way this weekend. One look at Tom's work, and you know this man is passionate about life. He is the brushwork king, and always has a light-hearted word of support for his fellow painters. Thank you, Tom. You are a shining light.
(please see previous post for my passionate painting award list....)

This just in ! Also received the Passionate Painting Award from the fantastic painter Douglas Hoover ! Am humbled. Thank you so much. Doug's glowing paintings of life on the N. Carolina coast are superb. His harbor, boat and beach scenes are a vacation for the soul.
I'd also like to say if you love cats, and great photography, please visit Doug's friend Teressa Williams' site and see her cats of Ocracoke Island. They are stunning.

Hi Liz,
I tried to bring up the Lemonade Award Logo, don't have a clue how it's done. I did however give thanks to you and Nancy on my blog, but again didn't know how to highlight your names so people can just click on your names. I still have lots to learn about blogging. In the meantime thank you.
Thanks, Cathyann. I just call 'em like i see 'em!
Can't wait to see your dog portaits. : )
