This was another spectacular painting by Phyllis. She is so talented. This was my fourth purchase, and I expect I'll add additional pieces soon. I love the stories, symbols, and emotion behind her art, and that her paintings transport me to another place. Thanks again!

Deanna, it's brilliant to know you're happy with this your fourth(!) of my artworks. I love that you relate to the feelings that I express in my art - and the way you are having it framed sounds absolutely perfect (thank your sharing that)! What can I say but a heartfelt thank you - your lovely words and message brought a huge smile to my face this morning :-)

Thanks for this great piece of artwork Phyllis and for helping support the Ukrainian crisis. Phyllis sent the artwork very quickly and it arrived the next day well packaged. Phyllis kept me informed about when it had been posted which was excellent and even included a hand written card which included tips about framing the artwork. 100% happy customer

Thank you for such a prompt, positive response Martin! I’m delighted that you’re happy with my drawing and it’s wonderful that something created when I was feeling sad and helpless, has been able to help the charity a little. Thank you … 🙏🏼

Another beautiful and delicate artwork from Phyllis matching the other two that I previously purchased from her. She is super kind and she delivers fast. The artwork arrived one or two days after I bought it! Thank you so much, Phyllis. I will definitely be buying more of your art.

Oihana, wow, you’ve created a trio of my little wood-engravings! And it was thoughtful of you to send me a photo of how you’ve framed them in white - I really love that presentation! Thank you :-) x

This is the third piece I've purchased from Phyllis, and it is simply lovely. I love the earthy romance of her paintings, and their ability to transport you somewhere else. "Golden Beloved" features a beautiful gold paint, making it a bit different than other paintings I've purchased from her. As always, Phyllis is communicative and super sweet, and the paintings always arrive very quickly. I anticipate more purchases in the future, though I'm running low on wall space and will likely need to rearrange to add them. My husband jokes that our house looks like an art gallery, though I view it as a compliment.

Deanna, just a day after your purchase of the Winter Tree, to see that you had chosen 'Golden, Beloved' too ... well, what can I say? I was utterly thrilled! Painting with warm gold gouache on this, my favourite, grey handmade paper, is simply a joy for me, so to read that you like the effect is wonderful ... and it's lovely that this one is a contrast to the other two paintings too! Sending my very best wishes and thanks.

It took me a few tries to actually leave feedback for "Memory: Winter Tree on a Summer Night" as I have felt overcome with emotion every time I tried. I'd just experienced a loss when I made this purchase, but this painting made me think of better summer memories. Anyway, this painting really touched me and will be a special piece in my home.

Dear Deanna, I was so pleased when you bought this painting on New Year's Day. Now, reading your moving words about what it meant to you and why you chose this image, it adds another level to the story. I am sorry for your loss. This painting is indeed about memory, about being calm and reflective, so I feel very touched that you chose it. Thank you Deanna.

Such a lovely artwork. The fineness, the delicacy,... It's the second time I buy an artwork from Phyllis. She is really caring, not only with her work and how she delivers it but also in every single communication. Thank you Phyllis!

Dear Oihana, what a lovely surprise for me when you chose another little wood-engraving *and* that it's similar in shape to the previous one, both being curved. So it's a perfect companion piece! I do love the set up here on Artfinder that facilitates communication between collector and artist - that is something very precious and unusual. Thanks again and best wishes to you. Phyllis :-)

The painting arrived in the US in only three days and is even more beautiful in person. I've already sent it for framing and can't wait to get it back. I also loved the included greeting cards featuring lovely prints. (Though I doubt I'll actually be able to part with them.) I look forward to adding additional pieces by Phyllis in the future.

Thank you for writing this and letting me know that you like it - it means a lot :-) Sending you my best wishes, Phyllis

Dear Oihana, thank you for the super-swift review! I’m so pleased it got to you quickly and that you’re happy with it. Although I created it in the late 80s, in my London days, it seems like yesterday! Thank you very much for buying. Very best wishes, Phyllis
