Hello Mia!!! How lovely to see one of your paintings and to hear from you. So sorry to hear about your back - must make things very difficult. I love your Christmas card - very simple and perfectly executed - spot on! I am dabbling with pen and wash at the moment, trying to get to grips with it. I wish you were posting regularly, as I could do with the inspiration. Take care, Thea.

Lovely to see you here again Mia! Very sorry about your back, it must be very painful. I love your Xmas card, so very simple but effective. It somehow has got the Christmas spirit in it! Take care now! Satu

Wondered where you got to Mia. Sorry to hear you not so good. Love your card!

Welcome back, Mia! I've missed your postings! This is lovely - it evokes a long Christmas tradition and atmosphere, but has a contemporary feel to it. I'm sorry to hear you're not well. I hope you will recover soon.

Thank you all so very much for your warm welcome back and your lovely comments. It feels good to be back, maybe not for posting so often as before. But I will do my best :) Mia

Do you know, I was only thinking of you the other day and wondered whether I should click on one of your old postings and ask you where you were! Then, out of the blue, I spot this one of yours! Psychic or what..LOL. Love your card and sorry about your back, sounds painful.

Louise had the same thought as me and you have beaten us to it! I missed this one somehow. All the best.

This is a Christmas card I designed for my youngest daughters mother-in-law. Pen and wash - as usual (lol)!!!!. What do you think of it? All comments welcome. Sorry for not posting very often (trapped nerves in my back), so I can't work or paint regularely. But I still watch the POL-site every day.
