Spence Report post Posted July 20, 2009 I'm happy he's back with his family and that he can pass his expertise down the line. Johanna, you should revive this thread every 3 - 6 months. I'm sure the newer folks would be interested. I know I was right away. I can't wait to get started. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iwannabeacowboy Report post Posted July 20, 2009 Billy and Mary are 2 amazing people. It's hard to believe her paintings look so much like real pictures. They were both given a gift of talent that most of us can only dream about. Wishing you and your family the best. Charlie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnBarton Report post Posted July 21, 2009 Thank you Billy for all the wonderful art and inspiration. I hope sincerely that you can recover as best as is possible. You did a cameo that completely blew me away. I am sure you have heard the term "blown away" in reference to your work. I have never met you, and sadly probably never will, again thank you and I wish you the best from here on out. John Barton - apprentice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
