Nice email

Danny,
I am a 43 year-old Special Ed. teacher in IN. I have always been an art fanatic and took many lessons way back in my teen years. Since then I have just “dabbled”. I had to take a “leave” from my job in Feb. and have researching altered books/artists sketchbooks/drawing and came upon your book. It is

incredible. I am reading and rereading it every day! I love everything about it! I have borrowed it from the library and will buy at least one copy as soon as I can afford it. I HAVE to have it! I have always wanted to be an artist and during the past few months have done more art than I ever imagined I could. It is wonderfully theraputic and cathartic! You have truely inspired me beyond words. Your book is my “bible”. Since you started in your 30’s I am hoping that it is not too late for me since I am in my 40’s. I want to draw, write and make stuff 24 hours a day (I sleep very little). I just wanted you to know what a wonderful thing you have done in sharing your journey with all of us “aspiring artists”. Please keep it coming, I just can’t get enough and now I’ve found your website and love to see the work from so many talented people. Thanks for all that you have done for me, my life has been changed forever.
With warmest regards,
Holly

Danny, I sold my dental practice here in San Diego abut 3 years ago……Took a class with Jan LaFazio……I Journal almost every day….I am enjoying my watercolor time more since I started journaling……I'm not quite sure why that is….I'll bet there is a lot of thoughts that could come up in answering that question….Anyway…I have your Illustrated Life book….Read it over and over….I wish I could read all the little writings…..Be Guzunt…Eddie
