I honestly thought my ATCs would arrive in time, and when I didn't hear from her to confirm they'd got to her, I emailed her. I got mad when she didn't reply, because, as I explained to her, I've had a couple of letdowns in past exchanges, and I get really cheesed off! So again, my apologies to Susan - in public this time. She has returned my ATCs as promised, and sent me three of hers in the parcel - most unexpected, in view of my rudeness. They are just beautiful, Susan - thank you very much for being so forgiving.Gina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07532527261977368083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32540525.post-18259635573583734832009-02-03T01:01:00.000-05:002009-02-03T01:01:00.000-05:00Susan, your work touches me in a way no other has....Susan, your work touches me in a way no other has. Keep doing what you are doing and all will be well. You have proven yourself as a professional curator. Your show was fantastic and I am sure the next one will even be better.lindacreateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00649177865914580565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32540525.post-8499123487061516062009-02-02T09:56:00.000-05:002009-02-02T09:56:00.000-05:00You've opened my mind so much "The Suze", and no p...You've opened my mind so much "The Suze", and no paper would or could have done that---you've led by example and hard work and vision. You've engaged on a personal level, and a professional one.<BR/>It was fascinating and fabulous speaking with you last night!arleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14036114069539254266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32540525.post-83948339145646654262009-02-02T08:32:00.000-05:002009-02-02T08:32:00.000-05:00I've been waiting to hear you say that!!!!

A degree can't teach you to be SUSAN and that is what your art is about! You DON'T need it. You never did.Wandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08987178371117192422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32540525.post-16892192764687153972009-02-01T23:52:00.000-05:002009-02-01T23:52:00.000-05:00Well, there's absolutely no doubt about you being ...Well, there's absolutely no doubt about you being an artist nor about your work being art.<BR/><BR/>I enjoyed the photos you posted of this show. I "get" conceptual art and some of the work is intriguing. Personally, I could not work that way. For me the craftsmanship of my medium is an important element. That's too bad in a way. There would be no unfinished projects taking up space in my studio if I could be satisfied with just the concept of my idea for each being present.Nellie's Needleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12468773469685787840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32540525.post-79895719781471469002009-02-01T17:55:00.000-05:002009-02-01T17:55:00.000-05:00Doreen and especially Carol have said it all!

I have a degree, admittedly in ceramics so i have switched dicipline but I feel all the time as you do, so the piece of paper obviously does NOTHING. While there were some fab, thought provoking pieces in the sho you just showed us, not one gave me the emotional reaction that I have got with your pieces. and as for the person down under well, long may she regret her oh so quick tongue. Do not allow that to cloud your experience, it is a triffling, a pifling piece of pettiness by someone who should have acknowledged, A) the postal system and B) the fat that you had a show resting on your shoulders. All your thoughts on the juried show are right and just and if it is an open thing, I will be there with bells on!
