TOTALLY HUMBLED and speechless!

I am totally humbled by an article in a magazine sent to me recently from UK...Popular Patchwork.com An English fan sent me a copy and there is a 4 page article about the Quilt Festival in Birmingham where my Mother Earth took out a 1st in the Art category. In case u missed it...here is the judges video comments from the Festival you can watch online. 

The reporter for the article Popular Patchwork writes very poetically and flowery compared to our Aussie counterparts and I read the article imagining a stiff upper lip, with a perfect Queen's English accent.

The article describes Mother Earth as ...."......an incredible landscape quilt of rich terracotta colours achieved by painting with bleach onto black cotton background .......on large scale and to such great effect. It had all the luminance of a Dutch Master and I found Mother Earth to be captivating."

Now I had to read this a few times to really get it...that the reporter was comparing the light in my work to that of a Dutch Master artist...such as Rembrandt, famous for his luminous glowing work. O M G I think I can die happily with that comment to my resume!
