Hi Everyone....Wishing you all a wonderful last week in 2009....I can't believe how quickly time has flown by this year....and it has been a wonderful year....This week I will take some time to reflect on the year and see what I am most proud of....see what I would have changed or things I wanted to do but never had the time to ....I think taking the time to look at the past always helps us with our goals for the future.....I know one thing is for sure...I feel very blessed to have made so many wonderful friends through my blogging....sharing my art with you all over this last year has really inspired me and filled my heart....so thank you so much for your friendships and your kind words of encouragement and your feedback...I have grown as an artist because of you all...and I thank you from the heart.....I hope that you enjoy these last few days of 2009 and reflect on the year with family and friends...
Happy 2010!!! and may you all be blessed with Health, Happiness and much success in the coming year.....
I am also submitting this to Three Muses this week....theme...something old ...something new....the old is the memories of 2009....and the new is the possibilities that 2010 may bring!!!
and also to Illustration Friday....theme "renewal" I love a whole new year ...full of fresh starts and renewed dreams and possibilities.....

Yes, your old and new illustration is fantastic and your words are thoughtful, heartfelt and so, so true. The Land of Blog is an amazing, friendly, generous place to be.
Happy New Year from Marie, melting away in the summer heat.
I just wanted to stop by and wish you a Happy New Year! I thought about you and your little one/Cole over the holidays, hoping you were all having a wonderful time. Your reflections piece is very touching. I find such wisdom in this post. Hoping for wonderful things for you and yours in this new year.
Diana, Happy New Year! You my dear, shall remain my sweetest, dearest Canadian blogger friend who I consider one among the first blog friends I have met. You have been a true sisterfriend from the very start. I appreciate your support, your sense of humor, your inspiration and your encouragement. I have enjoyed following your art journey and watching young handsome and brave Cole grow up. I will always think of you as my sisterfriends. Happy new year!
Another beautiful piece of illustration! I hope 2010 is a great year for you.
Let's see how far into the year I can go before I insult you. Last year, I made it all the way to December.
Your pal across the internet,
JPiC
Happy New Year Diana! Thanks for allowing us to follow along on your artistic journey. You have a great blog and I'm looking forward to the creative things you have in store for 2010.
