Thanks, Joe, for sharing your lovely works and for sharing your hints. I'm a Stampin' Up! demonstrator who has been playing with our lighthouse set Coast to Coast and using Seaside Sketches on a vellum overlay. I will use your hints to walk around the house to clear my head and settle some of the placement problems. I have also seen your lovely cards in national magazines where I've enjoyed your detailed work. Stasia Todd

Enjoyed a lazy Sunday morning looking at your artwork. Well done Joe! On our holidays we often take a "road less travelled", just to see where it leads - and several times have ended up at a lighthouse - once on Kauai, once on Quadra Island, BC and also in Nova Scotia! They seem to call us and make wonderful photographs too. Christine Sibbald

Hi Joe, I really love your work! So much, that I added it to my favorites. That is a short list so please take this as a high compliment! Fellow A-B-Y member, Trish

Hi Joe - Very interesting web site. I love the way you depict lighthouses combining rubber stamps, pastel, inks.. I have always been attracted by lighthouses and paint them in watercolor or add them to some of the collages I create.I got attracted to your web site (through Nita leland's group) as you have the same last name Nathan as my maiden name and I am always please to correspond with people named Nathan. Denise Nathan Enslen from Arkansas

Love the latest additions! The beaded scenes are wonderful. Like what you are doing with the Distress inks too. Love, Zeborah

Hello Joe, You do such beautiful work. You have a special talent for creating beautiful skies and waters-in my estimation, the most difficult part of scenic stamping. I wish you would share some of your secrets and add tutorials for skies & waters to your website. (Tyra is great at doing tutorials & I'm sure would help.) I don't know if you are familiar with Golden Rule Supply but they have some very nice lighthouse scenes, as well as other scenic stamps. Unfortunately they do not have a website. I discovered them at the RubberStamp/Scrap Expo in Milwaukee. Always enjoy your posts to the various egroups we both belong to and looking at your art work. Linda Fonslow
----------------------
Hi Joe, What a pleasure to open up a magazine and see your art! Love looking in your wonderful galleries as well, keep groovin' on! Hugs, Karen Ouellette

Hi Joe, I love the images you have done. I haven't done much stamping but you sure make it look wonderful. Joyce

Hi - I love the use of the Ranger inks! All of your work is beautiful. The microbeads are nice. Thanks for sharing your works. Linda K. from Louisiana

Hi Joe, It's great to regain contact with you. I just read your message on Lessons for Card Crafts and browsed your great site. I love all the updates you have done since I visited you a couple of years ago. You stopped by my ExGenieites (OURS) forum on Delphi and we chatted a bit. Your addition of the micro beads and new use of color is really great and I'm so glad that you are having such fun with your creativity. Sue Bell aka StampCrazy

Hi Joe, I just love your work! It is just beautiful, both the pictures and all the vibrant colors used to bring each one alive. You have a real talent with the rubber stamps. I can see how you have been to each one of the location that you have made. You are a real inspiration, keep up the great work. Thank you for posting your site in the group messages. Diana Neeley

Hi Joe! Had to take another peek at what you are doing. You and I used to exchange cards when I first joined Silver Stampers and I have kept every card that you sent to me. It is wonderful seeing your enthusiasm and how you are "growing"! Hugs, Andree C. in Olympia, WA.
----------------------
Hi Joe, I just browsed your web site and enjoyed every page of it, I also belong to Bmuse group. Your art is exceptional, very inspirational, and above all gentle to the eye to enjoy. I have started back at crafts, after having a stroke, using my left hand only. Your email referring to the Distress Ink by Ranger is what caught my eye. I find it very interesting, and something I would like to try. Thank you so very much. Florence (grandmaflory) Brick - Daytona Beach, FL

Hi Joe. I grew up in Maine and always had lighthouses around. Loved them. I was friends with the Coast Guard lighthouse "keepers" which was kind of fun too. Love the coast of Maine forthe lighthouses there. We have some here in LA too. Thanks. Marge@stampznstuff
----------------------
Joe and Tyra - What a great combo. Two of the most talented people put together and you find one of the most awesome sites seen in rubberstamping! Thanks for sharing! Someday I will get to see you in person, Joe. We live so close to eachother. Sheila Turin

Hi Joe . . . Your artwork never ceases to amaze me. I remember when you joined the Silver Stamper's and I thought your work was great then. Though I thought there was no room for improvement, you proved me wrong. No words can really properly describe the beauty of your lighthouse art. I especially enjoyed my visits with you and your lovely wife, Suma, and appreciate your teaching me your technique of those lovely chalk skies. Friends forever. --- Irma Hunger, aka The Whipperstamper

Hi Joe, Welcome to Stampers Corner - we are lucky indeed to have you join us !! After browsing your website, I can only say one word - - WOW !!!!!!!!!!! Your artwork is absolutely phenomenal and your talent is extraordinary. Beautiful, Awesome, Inspiring are just a few of the words to describe your gorgeous work. The vivid color combinations, textural "feel", movement, composition, and style is just breathtaking. The animated gallery is so unique - I've never seen anything like it - absolutely fantastic. I have been a lighthouse collector for many years, so your art touches me very deeply. I feel as though I'm right there in the scene - I can even smell the warm ocean breeze brushing against my face !! Well, maybe it's because I live in Florida and smell the ocean everyday - but your art really has a calming, peaceful effect on me. Thank you so much for sharing your work with us. Oh yes - - and your art room is fabulous !! I'm looking forward to visiting your website VERY often !! Blessings, Ann Ullery
