Well I did it, I did my demo for a local art group. Full of apprehension  and nervous anticipation.  I showed a group of lovely people how I used Yupo paper. I painted a free hand Iris under close scrutiny , did my usual splat.  Then a page of daisies on a second sheet already prepared so it could be worked into . People seemed to enjoy it and did their own renditions.   They said a lovely thank you and I think they want me back sometime in the dim and distant .......and I sold a couple of Sams Tales....and they paid me...Yay.

Who is Slyvia?  What is she? That all our swains commend her..... You can be Slyvia again just as soon as you wish - only what with your being a published author now, I thought you might prefer a more respectful version of your name: but - at your command: Slyvia Ovens it is.
