|
Marlana Hendrick – Talented modern impressionist who works in smaller formats; highly imaginitive and vivid pieces (ebay seller id: stillrun)

I revere nature, have an empathy for the pagan and heathen, the goddess and the manly arts. What appeals to me is genuine emotion from any source..." (ebay seller id: pieboy)
|
Tascha – Charming paintings of animals and people. Tascha says: "Most of my paintings are small in size, they are like little gems. People who have bought from me usually want more. They love to create a grouping of my paintings on their wall." (ebay seller ids: pretty_nifty and pretty_nifty_too)
