Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you! That picture brings such joyful tears to my eyes! We often place our GURUs on pedestals, and sometimes, they do make mistakes. I only hope Linda realizes that we Love her in all her imperfections and that we understood her pain. Her lack of faith near the end and her lost sense of hopelessness without her Twin only serve to make her more human to us. If anything, it only makes us Love her more. Linda, wherever you are, we Love you!!!!!! And we always will--forever and a day!!!!!! ------------------ Consider the circle, measure it please, All its three hundred and sixty degrees. Wasn't that fun, and haven't you found You can do it again, the other way 'round? Now that we know how many degrees, Must be accounted for nice as you please Here come astrologers, what do they say? Divide the degrees in precisely this way. Take thirty degrees for each of the signs It makes a nice wheel divided by lines. Chris Angelino IP: Logged |

Man, that's beautiful. . .It certainly captures Linda's childlike charm and her innocent nature. I wonder who did such a remarkable work. . . Later, have fun with your mom Eternal

I looked around the guy's site some more and I almost turned green with envy He does truly beautiful work with a lot of detail, I'm going to look at more of the site later and try to sign his guestbook if he has one. I feel so inferior ARRRRGH! It's hard to be an artist, especially when you have 12 unfinished paintings IP: Logged |

Hey I hear ya man. I used to be envious of this one girl who drew the coolest pencil sketches you ever did see, but then I realized that I had all of that and more, it's just that I wasn't utilizing it. Us fellow artists gotta stick together Peace P.S. You do paintings Gooberlily? Me and paint just don't mix--instead my weapon of choice is the pencil, number two style. IP: Logged |

I'm with you Nep! Artists do need to stick together, wonderful to know you're in the club too! But with , I should have known that already! I don't use pencils that much, unless it's a really soft lead...writing with pencils must go against my vibrations or something, when I write with them I feel the same as when someone drags fingernails across a blackboard. Eeeks! I love the way pencil drawings look though, and I wish I could do it! I only have about 3 or 4 pencil drawings. I use a lot of black, grey and white paint when I paint...so maybe it's me trying to fufill that wish for drawing with pencils or charcoal! I'd love to see your artwork Nep, if you have a place online where I can see 'em let me know. And you're absolutely right...it seems to me that most artists are hardest on themselves. We all seem to have a streak of perfectionism in us. But, I guess, who would want to do something perfectly? It leaves no room for self-improvement IP: Logged |

Echoing all the previous comments... thank you, Eternal I am an artist, too... I draw dolphins real well, for some reason, they just manifest on the paper and tell me what colour they wish to be... they are deeply spiritual and highly evolved and enlightened beings... but you already know that... Wasn't/isn't Linda BEAUTIFUL??? Bless you Linda, wherever you are.. your message didn't die, sweet lady.. you changed my life forever, too... I love you xxx From over the Jools xxx (45 going on 5 going on Immortal...) IP: Logged |

Pices dominates my chart...but I haven't done art in awhile...I think I told you all this.My friend Erin is a great Artist. She painted a mural on the wall leading toher family room, it's an outside scene. Her husband came home from work and saw her painting the wall with all different paints...he was pasing the floor...he didn't know her in highschool like I did to see thekind of artwork she did. Is hould REALLY get back into it! I miss it terribly! IP: Logged |

And the watch is set on 12:20.. Twelve to one being the witching hour with the 20 minutes after as the time of silence for Atlantis sinking... ------------------
