Sandra ,how many years have I known you? 15? 20?s how many of your art books have I not only purchased but referred to ....... more times then I can I count! I was teaching myself since I was home bound and then found your class, met you in Sante Fe and I now consider myself "Sandra Taught". Every painting on the wall...I owe to God for the idea and to you for the magic in bringing it to life. how many emails over the years for 'help' and you were never too busy to answer...and now read about the real you1. I knew you were special, each piece you painted was special as you imagined more in the color then was visible to the eye! and now reading your background I see it all!!!! how fortunate was I to learn from your books. your class and your answers to my " I have a question" emails for the last 20n years!!! love you!!!
