Hi Michelle.

I understand that you are back from the sittings of the three "men in black". I hope you were able to have some fun with them, and get them out of office! Congratulations on this prestigious honor, I'm proud to say that I knew you when.

I'm looking forward to seeing some works in progress, or at least the finished pieces.

Jean

These should be very interesting portraits to paint. The first gentleman wore a casual jacket and bolo tie, the second one had his signature beige Stetson cowboy hat in his hand for the sitting -- and the third governor came to his sitting wearing a black Stetson hat, bolo tie, leather vest, big silver belt buckle and black jeans -- perfect for Wyoming!

Oh how I adore living out West. I'm excited to see these paintings, Michele!

Yah! And three cheers for you, Michelle! This sounds like great fun. Sharon, I totally understand that Michelle would never compromise her professionalism in her pursuit of fine art with a capital F (fun). Hee Hee.

Congrats all around for you! Now I expect to see some really Fine Art come out of those hands of yours.

Jean

Oops!!!!!

I just reread what I wrote earlier. When I said "out of office", I really meant out of THE office! My apologies to anyone I may have offended, I just forgot to type a simple word..............duh.
