Isabel! Ni hao ma? Ni de huar hen piaoliang!! Tebie hao kan! (Sorry I don't speak "Guangdonghua"...) I lived in northwest China - and Beijing - for four years, and even with that, my Mandarin is pretty shoddy).
Hey, I had the extreme pleasure of seeing one of your original works - up close and personal! What a treat - it was gorgeous!! My student, Jeanene - who so luckily aquired it - showed it to me a few weeks ago. She's lucky and you are a very generous spirit. I really admire you so much. You are so awesomely gifted and the fact that you are so dedicated in spite of the conspicuous lack of support for your art by those around you...it says a lot about your character. Don't worry. Remember what Joseph Campbell used to say: "Follow your bliss! "
