Dear cyberscribes and calligraphy friends all Deena and I were talking about WEATHERGRAMS when she announced: WHAT? I squeaked Be it her hand, her memory or her image I know that our love for AnnE will mark our work forever! and I hope that she likes the words Deena asked me to
share and that Roger asked her to present at the Celebration of AnnE's Life IMAGES Everyone has an image A picture that they keep To keep on shelf or fridge or heart To pull out when they need For some, the picture’s silly A rose between the teeth Or purple shoes, crocs I believe Standing beneath the sleet Some will picture angel’s wings Another star up in the sky Footprints on a sandy beach Or a warm hug in the night But for me, the picture’s clearest Printed on the page Today is all about the art Created, guided by our sage Her hand will help draw beauty And her hand will help find peace If we let it guide our work Today, we’ll find a bit of each Shirts by AnnE of the Tassells Weathergrams from scribes around the world The best attribution would be: from the famous and the infamaous ~ all who loved AnnE When Deena walked to the podium, I remembered that when AnnE was first told that her Cancer had recurred; Deena created an ATC that grew into a greeting card and framed art that has spread around the world. We included it in the book and are sharing it with you here.
