Snowflowers Giveaway!

It's almost my 2 year blog anniversary and to celebrate I'm giving away 2 prints! I started this blog January 15th, 2009 and I wasn't sure I'd like doing it but I've had a great time. I SOOO appreciate all of you visitors and the wonderful friends I've made!



I'd like to make a new header and I've had some ideas but nothing that is really exciting. So, to be entered for a drawing to win Snowflowers please be a public follower of the blog, and then leave a comment on this post telling me what the phrase "art on the page" means to you. (Or if you can't think of anything, just leave a comment!) I'm hoping your ideas will help me create something fun and new for the header.

I'll have the drawing next Sunday Jan. 8th and I'll also start the next week's giveaway with a different print. Thanks again for the support and wonderful comments these last two years!!

    Hey Jill, I'm not a frequent visitor in your blog but I'm glad I've stopped by. Your prints look really good and so I hope to win one true your give-a-way! The phrase "Art on the page" means to me, discovering something new every time you look at an artwork or children's illustration!! The little details in someones work are so important an they make you want to look at the art over and over again!!

    Oh, and for I forget congratulations with your second blog anniversary!! :)

    Hi Jill. I come from days long before blogging but like your print making, I commend you for sticking with it so ardently. What it means to me is that it allows me to see you once again. It's so nice to see this calling of yours bear fruit. It reminds me of your clean and imaginative zeal that cuts through the everyday humdrum, much like you did back in the days of The Pearl. Here's to many more years.

    Thanks Dawn, Leen, and Steve! It's good to hear from you guys!

    Thanks for your thoughts about art on the page, Leen. I like the details in illustrations too and I'll try to include lots when I make the next header.

    Steve- I'm so glad you found me again after all these years! You are so nice to think of me as having imaginative zeal. :)

    Your current header is so delightful it will be hard to match. It is from your imagination to the viewers Imagination. Art on the page makes me think of a person with colorful paintbrushes for hair transitioning to visible art. Maybe the hair is interspersed with colored pencils and maybe splotches of colored paint dripping onto or turning into a scene. Oh gosh, wish I was in a creative frame which is hardly never. But I do enjoy your work! Thank you. Sandra Schram

    Jill, love your website and blog! Art on the page for me means that the left and right hand sides of the brain get married in one quintessential image.

    Cheers! mary trimble
