Hmmmm... now that I'm a famous published artist, I wonder if I can double (or triple?) my portrait prices? Just kidding, but wouldn't it be nice to be able to do so? You all can say you knew me when I just a nobody ;) :p

*squeal* what an exciting surprise for me today!

OMG! Is that your pencil drawing of Mystique? I'm having a hard time reading the print, but I think that's what it says.

I can't wait to get my own copy!

CONGRATULATIONS! You are so talented!

Yes, thats my pencil drawing of Minette. I'm actually embarassed by the caption -- I must have been iun a silly mood when I wrote it, but they must have liked it! :D :p

It says:
"Mystique" a colored pencil portrait of my former foster cat Minette. Minette is a mystery, and those green eyes mesmerize anyone who meets her.

Congratulations! And it is a lovely portrait - from one artist to another. (My illustrations have been published, too - but only in my husband's books and in the joint book we did together - so I didn't get paid for that.) Your drawing is beautiful, and your cat looks pretty, too.

***Deep sighs***.... and to think folks, we knew her "when....."

That drawing is worthy of printing for all to see but I don't blame your excitement one bit! CAT FANCY! WOW! That is something to be proud of!!

How EXCITING!!! :D I am just thrilled and so proud of you, Kim!!! My issue came in the mail just today.

Wow - CAT FANCY!!!! :D

heehee - yup we knew her "when". Oh and Kim, please don't raise portrait prices until you do a drawing of our Aneka Joy when she arrives in October.

What a happy, happy month for you.

Congrats Kim!

I used to subscribe, but the overseas postage got too expensive :(

Would someone with Paypal please PM me - I'd love someone to mail a copy of this VERY special issue to my NY postal address, from where it will be forwarded to me. I can reimburse the magazine cost and postage via Paypal.
