I'm sure you'll have no problem with your goal - thanks for looking here. <br />Hi, Susan. My studio is a blessing. Right now I'm missing it after a few day's absence.<br />Merry Christmas, Katherine. Congrats on the exhibit you just finished. <br />Thanks to Ron Bigony. I cut and pasted your e-mail because you need some linkage. I always google "A href" and cut the code out, and then stick in the URL and words to display. I have no knowledge of HTML, but I can move a mouse around.<br />Hi, Steve.

It's really quite brilliant on so many levels. Great job!<br /><br />I find that black foam board works really well when too much light is flooding my studio.<br /><br />Isn't this season so much fun?
