The winner is Carol Steel, a long-term follower of my blog and a blogger at http://carolsteel5050.blogspot.ca/ .

Hi Sheryl. It was wonderful to see so many people there. I am happy Carol won the book. Now, for a while at least, I can get back to writing! Jane

Hi Pia. I had lots of fun running the raffle. Painting blackberries is an interesting study in using ultramarine blue with some cadmium red and titanium white. I like the look of your new studio! Jane

I am so pleased to have won the cover art for your first book. What good luck for me! And thanks for the mention of my blog and my wins at the WFNB competition this year. I haven’t been blogging much lately because I have been concentrating on my poetry. Thank you again, Jane for sharing your work of art and poetry with the larger world. I’m sure anyone who buys your “within easy reach” will enjoy the memories, the poems and the drawings very much. I am happy to have been lucky and to have won your painting. It means so much to me.

How wonderful that another long time friend and nature poet, Carol, should win this painting. Excellent. Reading looks packed, Jane. I have heard great things about it. Well done.
