Aww Susan! I can feel your joy and the excitement at all your ideas and potential. Sounds like you were truly in your element and you had the space to lean into your talents and play/ experiment.
I really relate to this. Art was always one of my favourite subjects and I did it for A Level at school. I think I do still have a couple of books somewhere and I can remember the fizzing feeling of inspiration. It didn't feel like a 'lesson'. It's only recently I've started dabbling in arty stuff again and I love it.
Loved seeing your art school sketchbooks, Susan. Especially the weird metallic pinecone. I feel that it should appear in a story by you!
Love this, but why wiuld anyone steal large artwork?! I think we need a photo of you circa this era!
Thanks for the love! It’s definitely a head-scratcher why someone would steal large artwork.
I'll try and dig one out.
RE the artwork, I guess they wanted to pass it off as their own? Or just didn't like me 🤣

Sounds amazing, glad you’re rediscovering your love for art!
I'd love to see those sketchbooks, Janelle!
