TAODA...



Guess what !!!!I was contacted by the fabulously talented Neva Waldt of Art Dolls by Neva and was asked to join the wonderful group TAODA I can't believe it and I'm quite nervous, I will be meeting with them this coming weekend,I can't help but feel that I'm way out of my league. I'm not fishing for compliments either, I
just truly feel inadequate,they are all so accomplished true artists who have been published in Art Doll Quarterly ...toldja!!!!..OF COURSE I SAID YES, but now I'm feeling something in the pit of my stomache....
On a lighter note, I will be getting interviewed by Tina Winkle of Yes That's My Child
Screaming on March 13th, please stop by and leave a comment so I won't be all by
my lonesome ok? Thanks a bunch!
Blessings,Flora

    Flora, repeat after me...
    -I am worthy of peoples respect.
    -I am talented.
    -I deserve recognition for following my passion.
    -I am an inspiration to others.

    Say all of this over and over until that feeling in your stomach goes away.

    This is wonderful news and I am so proud of you!
    Will definitely visit Yes, That's My Child Screaming....

    Now now Flora...I know you are humble about it but I'm sure most of us that know your work are NOT surprised. You are amazing!! It's only natural that you progress in this fashion!
    Congrats!!

    Hello ZanAsha!!!
    I think it has more to do with Agoraphobia than with humility,
    What is humbling is everyone's responses.Many thanks !!!
    Blessings,Flora

    Oh, My Dear,Wonderful Flora,

    You're going to impress their proverbial buttocks'. You're every bit as talented and experienced as they are. It's ok to be nervous...never hurt anyone, but you go in there, girl, and kick some "stuff!"

    Hi Flora!
    I'm a member of TAODA....I won't get to be there this week when you come to the meeting, but I so look forward to meeting you! And don't be nervous! LOL
    Other than making you sing a song about the glorious art of dollmaking......that's what I'm going to miss seeing! (Just kidding!)
    Can't wait to meet you in person!
