recently purchased two prints, "talking hats" and "incognito" at an estate sale. would like to know what period they are from. I have viewed your southwest paintings, WOW...beautiful, love the colors and adore the lambs. Are you just painting now? When were the prints done?

Mej, your art is amazing. It screens.......I ran away and did it. I am so proud. Meet you on the red carpet! Love Nikki...
Comment by: Pam Holstein
Mejo- I have waited for four years to see your digs since you left me in Indiana. Your art is amazing! The Chicken Farm Art Center in San Angelo, Texas is a haven of creativity. After our collaboration on "There's A Spider in My Mailbox", I knew you were destined for greatness. It is by far the most clever children's book I've ever written. Thanks for all your illustrations. love, Pam Holstein author of "There's A Spider in My Mailbox"

We stopped in today, Friday May 7th for our first visit to your gallery. We live near Buffalo Gap. Cheryl talked to you about living in Indiana. We really like the white cow with red background. We have a mixture of cowboy oils and some modern pieces. We will be back to look at your paintings before too long.

I really enjoyed your painting, the Brahma- Charollais, in the Seven State Biennial Exhibit. You could really feel the massiveness of the cow. My wife and I really thought it was nice work.

Comment by: Camille Shea
Mejo, In 1975 you created a quilt for my then husband to be and myself. I don't know if you remember this,but you came to our apt(in Indy) and took photos of us and then created 9 squares from the negative of our photo. We are still married and have the quilt proudly displayed on a wall in our home. It is one of our greatest treasures. Camille and David Shea

I can't believe that I have found yr site. I've looked before. I live in North Melbourne Australia and picked up two of your wonderful prints 'on chipboard' - Incognito and Talking Hats - in a hard garbage collection. How dare they? I absolutely enjoy them and they are the only thing hanging on my walls. I've now looked at your work and I am amazed at your range and diversity. I congratulate you. Regards. I'll be looking

You are not only a good friend, you are also a great artist! I feel proud that I can say you are my friend and guess I better buy one of your paintings before you become too famous!
