    Mimi, of all the pics in that flickr slideshow, I truly think yours was the best. So what name did you decide to go by, mimitabby or biciclista?

    Bleeker, thanks for posting those images. Which painting is Mimi's?

    Mimi, very cool in getting picked up by Time. That's phenomenal. Are you a professional artist? Is this something that will help you build your portfolio?

    Yay for Mimi!

    edit: oh, duh, let me pay more attention to your sig line...sheesh.

    So, has anyone thought of doing a show of these works? I think a DC gallery should be contacted and this should be done soon! (in time for the inauguration). This could be so big!

    Congratulations, Mimi!

    Congratulations Mimi! It is so fantastic that you are able to harness the passion of your beliefs on canvas and better yet - that people can feel your inspiration and that it speaks to them.
