I LOVE her work and would definitely buy a book if she publishes one! Besides the fact that her drawings are so enjoyable I also really enjoy the deeper meaningful stories that go along with the images. This has inspired me to try my hand at what I call for me...doodle journaling where I too draw out images to go along with things I did for the day. My hope is to take this further and not just do it for a regular day of events...but learn how to come up with my own artwork to go along with my poetry or deep thoughts. THAT is what I am drawn to, but never went for because I did not think I could do it. Last week after checking this fabulous lady's site out I challenged myself to sit down for 1 hour and doodle out my day with images and text on 4 x 6 index cards. I was quite pleased with my first results actually and this proved to me I CAN DO IT. I just have to sit down and try. It took me 90 minutes in all....but I am now doing my second day...and have a special day where I went to a cemetery to find a friend's grave in my mind to do next. SO THANK YOU for such incredible images and stories and inspiration! She has really inspired me. I LOVE her work and would definitely buy a book if she publishes one!

And how could you now? I adore Caroline too, she is a creative Goddess in all ways, I have been a big fan for a long time too, of her work and of her as a human being. She could never disappoint us and I am so glad she is reaching out to agents. She is a genius and her work should be honoured and shared. Boy do I feel the love! And how could you now?
