You were right! I'm a super strong Christian, and I think it totally rocks that you are too! *cupcakes* God is the uber awesomest, and means everything to me! I really love all your stuff, and definitely will be visiting you quite frequently! I put those verses in my bio to let people know about me. First, that God is the absolute center of my life, and second that I'm totally open about that my religion, and am totally proud of it. Anyhoo, I totally love your work!! I know I already said that, but, seriously, I can't say it enough! You're AWESOME!! And as soon as the Extranet reopens, I'm giving you a link!!

'ello again! I'm terribly sorry, but apparently my mother talked to you online today. I wish I could have, but alas, time zones are such a pain at times. Anyhoo, I'll talk to you some time soon! God bless!

You've already read Hope One, but Hope Two is the other one I told you about. I'd love to hear which you think is better! Thanks a ton, luve!! You are such a darling!! *cupcakes*

Myrthe Smienk replies: "surprise surprise i read it yesterday, but I haven't wrote out a comment yet You'll hear from me as soon as I have the time!"

Hey, thanks for coming by and dropping a comment on my humble page
I see you have lots of cute stuff around here... keep drawing, keep coloring and keep posting !!

Ik wist niet dat je hier zo bedreven in was... maar vind het erg knap dat je het aan anderen durft te laten zien en dan ook nog eens die kritiek over je heen laat komen.
Gelukkig weet je ook hoe je dat aan moet pakken en laat je niet over je heen lopen.
Ik kan nog maar een ding zeggen en dat is...

KEEP ON DOING WHAT YOU LOVE!!

Myrthe Smienk replies: "thank you very much, honey Lately I'm really not into drawing (too busy with you perhaps) but I promised you to draw something for your new room, so I'll set my ideas on that Love You"

Wow, it's been over two years since I last left you a comment! That's far too long, my friend. How have you been? Where has God taken you these past two years? Are you still as passionate about your art and children? Is becoming a children's writer/illustrator still a goal for you? I'd love to hear from you and find out what's happening in your life.

Loved the fate of the lover one... Opens a lot of story ideas.

I like the Nri and portrait. That is interesting your portrayal of seasons matches the colours of the 'four humours' corresponding to seasons' elements, in the either hair, eyes, or complexion of the person representing it.
