NANCY GORTON - 09/12/00 07:24:40 My Email:tolenag@earthlink.net | Comments: I was amazed at your artwork. I am a tole painter/decorative art painter among other areas of art work, but have never carved a single thing, but I think about it, and I would love to give it a go, as my eyesight is not as good as it used to be, and I lo e the feel of my work. Yours is the first place I have ever looked at in the carving arena. I was very impressed, and I just want to carve something, even if it isn't that good, I feel I can maybe grow in that area if I give it a try. I think I will ge some books in the library maybe if there are any and see what I need to get started on just a simple project. Take care, and keep up the lovely work. God Bless! |

I am retired from the Air Force and have plenty of time to carve. Will i will let you go for now. If you have time visit my site and give me your feed back.
