I have received Email's from people around the world sharing their stories and comments about my art. Many people have purchased my mandalas for their homes or offices, others have been received as a gift. Each story is unique and beautiful, and they all make me smile, and touch my heart. If one of my mandalas have made its way into your life, I'd love to hear from you. You can Email me at Stardancer@Mindspring.Com and thanks for supporting my art. ~ ~ Kathy ~ ~ |

"Your 'Remembering Sedona' mandala is so unusual! It seems to be almost 3-D to me, like a mountain coming out of the sea. It looks like you could take a journey starting at the center, transcending through all the levels which are rich with information and meaning. The ascent is where the information is processed, and the top is a pool of knowledge; the essence of the journey." ~ ~ Kat M., Florida |

"I received the Pele Mandala as a gift and I hung it in my office. It is the first thing that I see when I enter the room. It gives me a sense of peace and a sense of power at the same time. I am drawn to the source of that energy just as a moth is drawn to the flame. And I know that by indulging in that awesome power, I too will cease being the person that I am. I continue to let the power of the Mandala draw me in. I can not resist!! Thank you for sharing your incredible art." ~ ~ Richard, North Carolina |

"My husband surprised me with a beautiful tote for my birthday recently. The quality is superb and the colors are very pleasing. Also, I just ordered a silk purse as a gift for someone. I thought you might like to know the story behind that. Our son, who we adopted from Korea at age 1, is now in Korea serving our country as a lieutenant in the Army. Well, he met a girl there and they will be married in January in Korea. I want to give a meaningful gift to each of her parents and I thought the purse would be perfect for her mother. They are a very traditonal Korean family and I feel that something personal will mean a lot to them. Thanks for your beautiful work!" ~ ~ Jane P. - Nipomo, CA |
