You gave me this incredible gift. I don't know why you chose ME, but I am truly thankful for it. I hope to make you proud & to use it to bring you glory.
Mom
You have done so much! From letting me be crazy creative when I was wee little, to being there for me in triumph & tears. You have supported me more than anyone could imagine. THANK YOU. No one could ask for more.
Dad
Even though you don't always understand it, you have passively supported my career. Thank you for BF & my beautiful workroom.
Kathleen Moody
Thank you for putting up with the many questions & requests for critiques! Without you, I would never have come as far as I have!
Chris Nandel Flint
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of oil painting! Because of you I know how to paint!
Maggie Bennett Jenner
You were the one to urged me to try sculpting in epoxy, for which I am forever grateful! You also forewarned that "It's hard, hard work." But encouraged me nonetheless to follow my dream.
Laurel Dedes
You have been a great support, willing to help me 'get out there' as much as possible. Even going so far as to add a page to your own site for me before I had one of my own, & then encouraging & helping me build THIS one!! Also for giving me a crash course in how to pack & ship when I was just starting. & for helping me out on my first offers. Not to mention that you are my go to person with any real life horse question. You are AWESOME!
Corina Roberts
Always supportive with praise for any of my creations. A fierce friend who I don't deserve. Also willing to put up with my scheme of shipping an Aggie out to your show!
Deb & Randy Buckler
Deb, there is no doubt that I would not have come this far without your help! You put up with soooooooo many questions when I broke into the AR world! It was like standing over a pool, about to jump in, but not having the foggiest idea how deep it may be. THANK YOU.
Randy, even though we have never spoke a word to each other, thank you so much for your incredible work. My ARs are always gorgeous!
Thank you both for always trying your hardest to help, not only me, but anyone! You two are the salt of the Earth.
