    Another beautiful post.
    I am flattered and honored to be included in your space.
    When I think of your studio, I think of the golden hue I remember.
    These pictures show that. Just lovely, Irene!

    I would be embarrassed to show you my work space. I can lose stuff for WEEKS in the delicately balanced piles of STUFF! I keep trying...

    Hi Irene,

    Oh, I remember those S&H stamps! We would get to go shopping with them when I was a kid. So many great pieces that you've shared with us today. Love the journal page and the Ray Charles drawing on the envelope - very clever!

    Happy WOYWW
    Peace, Kay (35)

    Here's a very belated welcome to your first WOYWW. I actually had a look around your blog. You make lovely art, and many of the people you visit are on my blog roll, too. Sorry it took so long to get here. I'm running very far behind due to internet problems. Happy very belated WOYWW from #1.
