The Snow Queen

And another New Year's greeting, as a greeting card, from the same person a year later.

You consort with people who have a fine eye.

I cannot help but feel sad, though, when I look at this picture, at the thought that Margaret Tarrant is long gone.

(Okay, enough of my being a depressive in your 'blog.)

That's a beautiful illustration Thom, but in the world of Snow Queen art my favorite is H J Ford's, even though it's not in color.

Daniel, depressives are welcome here, especially of your sort. I lament the passing of so many of the artists reflected on this 'blog. And hey, with your comments, it appears I still consort with discerning folk.

Steve, you took the words right out of my next post.
