These works of art are hauntingly beautiful. I cannot wait to get my hands on this book. I love Robin Hobbs work and your work so both together will be thrilling.

Comment on Saturday: cats and bears by Cathryn Fairlee

Hello Jackie,

I am an editor of Storytelling Magazine and am looking for an illustration for the next issue which focuses on fairy tales. One article especially talks about women who marry bears. I would love to use your illustration on the cover, but we have no budget for this. You would get full credit and contact information as well as a pdf of the magazine. Are you willing to give us permission to use your lovely art? Do you have a 300 dpi resolution image of it at 2 MB? My deadline is June 2nd.

Thank you for considering this.

Thank you. I hope to have good news about his house some time soon. Also hope to be re issuing The Seal Children and if so will add a dedication to Glyn.

Again, thank you Jackie … it seems to me that it was meant to be … that this one little man, who saw so much of a world that puzzled and shocked him, should return to Wales, back to the hills and through you, share so much with the world that give us a glimpse into not only his heart, but the souls of so many around the world who felt him kindred.

Jackie, thank you so much for sharing the “Last Words” for Glyn – I had thought of him very strongly just a few days ago, and finally found time to look for your blog … I am very glad that I got to know him through your writing, and so pleased that I had the opportunity to send a card to him those years ago … it was as much a privilege for me as it was an enjoyment for him … truly an important event both for those of us who shared and for Glyn to realize the world knew of him and his life in Wales. God speed him on his further way, the next leg of his journey. Hopefully there will be a way to preserve the cottage that he so faithfully kept and loved. Thank you for allowing us to share a tiny bit of your friendship with him.

I have been wondering what had happened to Glyn-now I will tuck him away in my memory knowing that he had an incredible friend who cared for him in life and death enough to fulfill his wishes placing his spirit in a place that he loved. You were both blessed-thank you for your moving eulogy-I will remember it for a long time.

Oh, my… that was just exquisite. I’ve loved your paintings from the moment I saw them, and hearing the story makes them even more special. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much Jackie for this lovely tribute to your dear friend. Although Glyn never knew me and I knew of him through you, in spirit I will always treasure his friendship and the love he shared of his home and animals. Glyn’s quiet humbleness touched so many lives that I feel truly blessed to call him friend.

I love the following blessing — I hope you do to.

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the infinite peace to you.
