Such was the beginning of my friendship with Susanna Gordon. After admiring her pages in Somerset Studio's Artful Blogging Premier Issue, I immediately hopped onto the computer and visited her site. From those first moments, I have been enchanted.
I am a horrible about lurking on blogs, but finally I built up the courage to leave a comment one day. Since then, Susanna and I have shared many conversations via email, enjoying each others company, talking about our daily lives, and our art.
I have admired Susanna's winged messengers for quite sometime. At one point I wrote her to say so, and she kindly offered to send me one, so that I might photograph a few of my own moments with her treasure here amidst the plains of the Midwest.
My winged messenger arrived in the post along with some other wonderful goodies, right before I left on my trip. I wanted to wait and offer her a proper thank you for such wonders. I look forward to reveling in this gift of friendship and sharing many more pictures of my messenger among the landscapes of Kansas in the future.

Hello Tracie!
What a lovely post. Susanna is amazing, isn't she? I am fortunate enough to be participating in a year-long doll project with her and many other talented artists. We are having so much fun.
I love her artwork and she has an incredible mind. It's so kind of you to dedicate a post to her.
I really enjoyed seeing all the photos of the proud artists below! I'm glad it was such a success. Thank for sharing.
I hope you're having a wonderful weekend.
All the best,
Holly
Thank YOOOOUUUU! Wow - I'm totally blushing here at the computer! I am certainly glad that we met through the blogosphere and now through writing letters.
I also love that you made the wings your very own. It makes me happy thinking that they are out there in Kansas, somewhere I have never been to before. Maybe one day?
Thank you. (still blushing and smiling!)
