Congrats Lianne!
Thank you again Jethro!! xo
Congratulations on your MDS feature, Lianne!
Thanks so much Freddie - that means a lot to me. I know the letter is in some respects hard to relate to but the idea of love beyond the grave...that moves me.
a wonderfully touching accompaniment to the letter.
Thank you so very much Ward - I'm so glad you liked it.
Outstanding work! Powerful and moving story.
Actually I wouldn't have posted this at all except for the letter and the story. Love that lasts beyond a lifetime...that's worth sharing. Thank you John.
Powerful pairing Lianne! Nicely done!!
I'm so glad you could feel this one Jethro - that means a lot to me!

Thank you so much Chris - I'll be there for a little while at least my friend. Looking forward to it!
Very moving,terrific history!!:)
Yes, I thought the struggle that must go on inside a man or woman torn between two ideals, two loves needed an outlet. I'm not thrilled to be making art out of war but the letter made it worthwhile. Thank you Andy.
Wonderful work.......grand composition !!!!!!!
Thanks so much John - I appreciate that.
lianne, truly a very moving art work.
Thank you so much dear Rosa - I find it hard to make art out of war but the letter said so much to me I wanted to try.
Beautiful work!!
Thank you dear Eitan - I love the deep emotions expressed in this letter so I had to find a way to share it. xo
Simply wonderful !
Thank you hon - that's really lovely of you to say!
This is beautiful and moving, Lianne! Looks so much like an old master's painting!
That's just the loveliest thing to say Judith - thank you so much.

Val it's just so lovely of you to drop by and leave such a lovely comment. xo
Excellent work
Thanks so much Joy - so lovely of you!
excellent work ! love the letter to accompany the image !
Thank you so much dear Cary - I'm so pleased that you liked it. It's such a touching expression of love that survives even death.
What a great image and corresponding letter. Terrific work, my friend.
Thank you so much Matthew - that means so much to me, especially coming from you!
Lianne, I have always loved the passion in this letter. And so well written, speaking of a love few people find. Your artwork to accompany it is both beatufiul and painful. I love the letter copied beneath the art. So touching and yet a harsh reminder of the civil war and the lives it took and those it freed.
Thank you so much dear Ramon - as I've said to Fred - there are still men and women willing to make this sacrifice. I don't know that I could. But the love of which he speaks IS something I can relate to and the hope of reunion and lingering presence so beautifully expressed that I wanted to pay tribute to that most of all. xoxox
A very moving letter; I find it hard to relate to personally, but I admire such faith. For me, the image speaks of the making of history... the words written in the sky...
I understand the difficulty relating Fred - yet there are still so many men and women willing to make this sacrifice for what they believe in. And the thing about history is...as the old saying goes...if we do not remember it and learn from it, we are condemned to repeat it. One only has to look at the evening news to know that's true. Thank you for your lovely supportive comment Fred. xo

Lianne, I do believe we're still connected to loved ones that we've lost through what we loved in them and how it carries on in us and our lives, thanks for sharing your art and interest, I'm constantly learning from it.

A beautiful and well done piece and the 'My dear Sarah' is just heart-wrenchingly beautiful. You have done it again, my friend! I love the lines of text softly placed in the sky! Thank you for including the youtube.com reference as well.
