Response to Kathryn's Work
"I have seen your painting in both daylight and nighttime now, and it is utterly gorgeous in both. It was lovely to see you today. We very much enjoyed your visit. With sincere thanks and appreciation for your amazing talent and beautiful spirit."

"You capture plants in such an etherial nature. Almost as if it's the cosmic photoshop, where plants are designed, before they're placed into their actual environment."
