And I am so happy that through this strange world I met you.<br />Your work inspires me daily.<br /><br />Happy New Year, and great new things.<br /><br />xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoBarbaraBarbara Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01342757136485853833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-75245609898474530902012-12-14T10:43:04.591-08:002012-12-14T10:43:04.591-08:00Thank you, Donald.

What amazes me is that they think, If it's online, it's free. <br /><br />I looked at over 200 cloud photos and paintings and none of them were like mine--except the follower who visits my blog (and looks to have copied the ideas of many others). It would be okay, as I stated, if she had given attribution and changed the colors and shapes more. Puh.<br /><br />I so appreciate your thoughtful comment, as always. <br /><br />Oh, yes, some of my best paintings have been completed after a dusting of pique! <br /><br />Glad you like the website. So true. All things 'computer' slow me down.<br /><br />Warm hugs from the desert!Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793226305585541931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-55969380309123202072012-12-13T13:42:22.639-08:002012-12-13T13:42:22.639-08:00Glad you are back to smiling!

Besides, your painting was more exciting and more you -- can't copy that!<br />I really like Power Circles -- all those textures and lines and gobs of paint are just wonderful. Maybe painting in a fit of pique is not such a bad thing?<br />And the website is lovely, draws one in. Dealing with that always falls to the bottom of the list for me...<br />Cheers!Donald Diddamshttp://diddamsdigitalart.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-63590397327665054122012-12-12T10:13:16.627-08:002012-12-12T10:13:16.627-08:00Good morning, Jeane!

Shame on those copycats, fer sure!<br /><br />Things are going really well with Diego and Zorro. They are both snuggle bugs. Zorro is a hoot with his young self scampering around with a ball or Frisbee in his mouth. They are a fearsome looking pair, though, and a lot of animal flesh to walk. Makes me feel settled and calm--like riding horses without the height!<br /><br />Thank you for stopping by. Let's hope that a little public shaming will teach the ignorant not to copy, eh?<br /><br />Warm hugs! <br />p. s. Love your photo...AND your fabulous new studio.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793226305585541931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-55226973008425598512012-12-12T08:57:16.279-08:002012-12-12T08:57:16.279-08:00good morning Melinda, oh I had such a wonderful ti...good morning Melinda, oh I had such a wonderful time on your website - it's truly wonderful and set up to make a person want to explore it - oh, dear, shame on copycats - it's a very old problem and always extremely disappointing when it happens - can't tell you how many times I've run across my exact words /ideas on someone else's site a day or two after they have appeared on mine - sigh - hope all else is well in your world and that the might Zorro is mixing well in his new home xoxoJeane Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07027843717050683473noreply@blogger.com
