Allah'u'Abha friends. I have really enjoyed our site. Your shells are wonderful and I thank you for sharing how you came about being inspired to create them. Artists should share of themselves and you have nicely

I just popped in to say hello and to thank you again for the beautiful gift you gave me in Haifa, Israel. Remember? The colours were the same as the flag of my country! A big hug to you and Phil.

We talked to you at the Saibel Shell Show in Mar. 2005/ My seester and I loved watching you form you snails. I lived in Mich forever but I do love Fl. I am working with polymar clay and trying to make marine life. If I can succeed I shall show my shellcrafting friends how to do it. I feel enspired thanks to you. My seester, Fran, and I remember you fondly. Good luck and lots of hugs Ellie Gado

Annie, The pages of this website are, like your creations, absolutely exquisite! I had to make sure I looked at every picture you have posted of your sculptures. They are like candy for my eyes! I am also touched by the words you write... your story, your vision, your passion... you so elquently describe your experience as an artist. It has inspired me! It is clear that every form you put forth contains a piece of your soul and your art is truely worship. Thank you for being true to the promptings of your spirit and for sharing your gift with the world. :)Anisa

Hello. I met you and your husband yesterday, while I was working. Remember, I scooped out your goldfish. Anyways, I thought you two were absolutly the nicest people. I saw your shells and thought that they were amazing! When I was younger, I made things similar to that. I would mix the clays together and try to shape them into little things. Then, not too long ago, I learned to make wire scorpions. Just talking to you yesterday was a true inspiration to keep going with my very own artwork. Thank you so much!

I talked to you earlier today thinking that you were the lady that did the shellcrafting but I was wrong for a good reason. Your art is wonderful - I have not seen anything like it in this area. If you do put out instructs on how to use the clay I would be very interested. I would love to think I could create something as beautiful as you have. Thank you very much and it was nice talking to you on the phone.

Dear Annie, I truly love your art! Not only is it beautiful, but it has so much meaning. I know the students who took your polymer clay class last spring at Evergreen Commons really enjoyed being able to express themselves as an artist using a new medium--clay! Even those who did not consider themselves as an artist when the class began, ended the class KNOWING that they are indeed an artist. Thank you for teaching the class, and we look forward to you teaching another class in March 2004.

Annie, thank you for sharing yourself and your art.

Sincerely, Barb Visser Enrichment Program Director Evergreen Commons
