  3. I know I've said this before, but you sure can pick 'em!
    The bad news is, I am beginning to want to go to some of these artists and buy stuff. I need to control that impulse if I am to get the new fairy tale journal off the ground!

  6. This is the coolest. I adore beetles (I have a gorgeous stained-glass bole-weevil on my studio wall) - and this is a perfectly beautiful one!
