I am also fascinated by icons and it's the memory of seeing them in churches in St Petersburg that I cannot separate from the candle-lit gloom broken by shafts of sunlight and the smell of incense and deep reverence. Have you thought of looking at any poetry as part of this project? I am thinking of the Blake Prize (about to be announced I think).Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10319288384527465859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23198946.post-50192515083285998272010-04-03T12:41:52.839+11:002010-04-03T12:41:52.839+11:00What a great class.What a great class.ElizThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05691208021622155317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23198946.post-76065093337323823652010-04-02T22:07:59.873+11:002010-04-02T22:07:59.873+11:00Hi Alison, thank you so much for returning to my b...Hi Alison, thank you so much for returning to my blog and writing your comment again.

It's best to share with others - the class shared and since, for these small pieces, we each only needed 2 - 4 sheets, total cost about $2.50. So not really expensive.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15003579922396408184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23198946.post-68832743671432382172010-03-30T14:39:23.839+11:002010-03-30T14:39:23.839+11:00Ali you are fast becoming one of my favourite arti...Ali you are fast becoming one of my favourite artists.

As always, I am awed by what you and others know about composition anddesign--heavy work for me. <br /><br />Thanks for the information about Rosalie Gascoigne and Justin O'Brien. <br />annieanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021356337010751802noreply@blogger.com
