Hi Susie, I'd be happy to give you some feedback on your forum post but I may have to circle back later as I'm at the office right now. :) BUT I have been meaning to tell you that I ordered my first Minted art print last week and it was yours! I've had my eye on Thaddeus for some time now. He be perfect in our playroom! I have two other of your prints saved in my account to order in the near future too. I'm doing the newspaper & flowers one for my daughter and we're having a little boy in February so I have to wait for his stats to order the sail boat. :) And I had no idea they were all yours until I looked closely at them! I'm a true fan. lol ttys!
