Peter McPartlin 20 May 2007

Hi Cathy You can be justifiably proud of your work.So unique amazingly clever and dare i say very commercial. Peter

Artist Reply: Thank you Peter. I tried to look at your website but sadly the computer said no! I'll try again later. You have an extensive portfolio here though which I checked out. I love your naive style and adore your use of colours. Sadly my works are not as commercial as I'd like them to be. I still can't make a living from my art. Here in France, people are very conservative and my art is too different. I am trying to sell in the UK but it's taking it's time! Still, I'll keep plugging away at it because I feel totally passionate about what I do.

Ora Moon 18 May 2007

Thats amazing, Ive never heard of such a technique, this is just beautiful!

Artist Reply: Thank you Ora. I've spent the last 6 years trying to come up with something unique. You have a great eye for detail too. Amazingly intricate paintings you do.

jonathan shepherd 17 May 2007

This is one superb picture, i wish i could see the original to appreciate the 3d.

Artist Reply: Thanks Jonathan, praise indeed. It's hard to photograph something with texture and represent that on a 2 dimensional plane. I see that you're in the UK. If you fancied a holiday in France the last 2 weeks in August, I've got a show then in Monestiés, south west France. You could see the real thing then! I do occasionally have shows in the UK so I'll keep you posted. Regard, Cathy

Agnes Greyfriar 16 May 2007

You have such an original approach. Gorgeous portfolio, Cathy, congratulations.

Greg Joens 16 May 2007

Terrific color, texture and 3D look!

Artist Reply: Thank you Greg. Sorry I called Lilly a 'he'. You are very talented and I appreciate your comment very much.

Lisa Bell 16 May 2007
