Alora, I am so glad to have found your page and learned of your talents: both in art
and marketing. The fact that other artists can succeed over the net is encouraging for
people like myself, those searching the widening horizon for a niche of belonging. I
hope that whatever may come your way, you will continue to bring happiness to the daily
lives of others. In appreciation, E Rachel from Illinois
me gusta tu trabajo.si pintas animales,quieres a los animales.si quieres a los animales
eres
buena persona. Pepe from Spain
I just love the horses - never tire of looking at them - and the other critters also.
Everyone who sees them is very impressed. My mom runs an art gallery in Denver - she thought
they were outstanding. A few people have commented that the creatures have an almost human
quality to them. from Kim
First I have to say that I love your work! I am re-tiling a
shower and I wanted to find something special to do with it. I think I found it in your tiles.
I am a wildlife rehabber and I raise orphaned or misplaced baby mammals. I deal mostly with
squirrels and I have really grown to love them. Your squirrel is wonderful and I think this is
what I would like although the fawn is wonderful too. If I ordered the squirrel could I have
you make some others to go with it? Sandy from California
I am in awe . . . I have never seen such beautiful tiles!! We are building a home and I
have to find a way to incorporate some of your wildlife tiles I love so many of them . .
especially the squirrels, chipmunks, native birds (cardinals, etc) Linda and Kenny from
Ohio
Alora your artwork is as beautiful as it always was.
Whenever I look at my Blue Jay I think
of you :) Debbie from Eugene
I received the tiles today and they took my breath away! They even made me cry because the
squirrel looks so much like Ginger. What can I say but thank you,I am so pleased with it.
You do such beautiful work.
Thank you again, Sandy from California
The red-tailed arrived today and he looks terrific! It's really going to be fun planning
the rest of the tile to go with him. Thanks so much for your beautiful work. Mike and

You create beautiful tile murals. I am interested in learning how to paint tiles. I purchased
some plain white matte finish tiles hoping that I would experiment with them. Do I need the gloss
finish? I have my own kiln. Did you ever try using enamel powders/gelatin method? I have only
worked with porcelain and china paints so this is a new adventure. Any info would be greatly
appreciated. I am hoping to create some tiles for my kitchen.
Thanks,
Donna from Michigan
