    Wow Kathy! This is such an exciting giveaway! First thanks for introducing me to Julie's work. I have several favorites from her Etsy site. The green apple and the field of wheat are wonderful and I also liked the cup of tea and the one of the keys that you are giving away! Very talented!

    She's definitely talented! I would say my favorites that I saw on the site were the keys and the green apple. I'm a follower, of course! Thanks for the giveaway!

    Julie is a very talented artist. I especially like the "Say it isn't sew". I would love to be entered in the drawing.

    I am a button collector, so I squealed with delight when I saw her button paintings. They are so cute!

    What beautiful work! After mulling over all the beautiful work at Julie's Etsy shop I have to say that the skeleton keys is my favourite -- although it was hard to choose!

    I really like the mason jar painting. I also think the abstract/surreal landscape one, Barnacle" is beautiful.

    I've been a big fan of Julie's work for a while now! My favorite has always been Obsolete Beast, the big steam engine, but all of her work is worth a close look.

    I really love the skelton keys the most but I also like the mason jar. Both remind me of my childhood and grandma keys in a drawer.
    Have a blessed Friday...Tracy

    How did I miss this?! Whew, just under the wire!! Julie's painting of the mason jar (MidWest Memory) really caught my eye. It's amazing how Julia manages to make paint really look like clear glass!!

    Skeleton Keys is my next favourite, so I'd be absolutely thrilled to win your giveaway -- fingers crossed!!
