"I wanted
to drop you a note for a special thank you for the great work
you did for Stacy!! She was feeling a little apprehensive about
turning 40 this year. Creating a special painting for her has
been the highlight of the year for both of us. I can't thank
you enough for your thoughtfulness and efforts with this one
of a kind gift. Your talent is truly wonderful and we are thrilled
to have your art work in our home. Thanks again!! ~ Patrick M.

December Testimonial:
"You and
Jim really got me this Christmas. I was so overjoyed with my
two beautiful paintings. I could not stop laughing because I
remember how you said they were for one of your collectors and
how sad I was at the time. You said if the paintings were meant
for our home then I would receive them. Well, I can't tell you
how happy I am...what a great surprise this was." ~ Lynda
Johansen ~ 12/26/07

let you know that your painting looks absolutely beautiful hanging

attraction, right in the middle. We are very pleased with it.
Thanks again for all the wonderful artwork." ~ Steve &
Judy Lane, Estell Manor, NJ ~ 6/28/07
January Testimonials:
"Yours are
the best painting of bats I have seen, as you portray the bat
as the beautiful, sweet and gentle creatures that they really
are. Of course most people wouldn't know this unless they have
seen our bats at one of our presentations, or at one of the other
bat conservation groups presentations. We of course get toknow
them intimately when rehabbing injured or orphaned bats and most
of them have very sweet personalities. Unfortunately this makes
it much harder and sadder for us when they don't survive their
injuries.I now have your bat prints at home and on the wall in
my office at work. I get comments all the time about how adorable
the bats look in your paintings." ~ Karen Moreno, Santa
Cruz, CA ~ 1/23/07

to THANK YOU, for coming into my life. Your talents in painting,
writing, and research are truly amazing. I have enjoyed seeing

at the Fall Festival was talking about an artist who lets you
pay for your painting on time and I instantly knew she was talking
about you. Here is my payment and I still love this piece! I
showed all my students (children and adults) and they all loved
it. They kept looking at it closely to see how you can make that
beautiful tree with just a few strokes." ~ Janice Mason,

June Testimonial:
"I
just wanted to say how much I am enjoying the Animal Spirits
book. It is fabulous - gorgeous artwork and very insightful.
And the Spirit Art emails really perk up the week. I was amazed
when I received the first one about turtles as just the week
before, for the first time in my life, I came across a family
of turtles. And then the next email was about hummingbirds -
one of my totems - and it made me realize how fortunate I am
here in California to have these delightful beings year round.
(interestingly enough, hummingbirds come to sit in front of me
- just a reminder to me that if they can slow down, so can I!
Anyways, thank you so much for all the joy!" ~ Carrie Mesrobian,
San Jose, CA ~ 6/17?06

course, the painting is hung! It looks great. John really loves
it, as I do. I just love looking at the paintings. I can't tell
you what they mean to me. I can say that sometimes it is hard

of my connections and what I do." ~ Terri Loy ~ 5/25/04

to tell you how very pleased and honored I am that you are going

just wanted to let you know that I went to your web site today
and everyone here at work was gathered around, enjoying your
paintings and our family pictures. I hadn't been on your site
in a very long time and didn't realize you had all those pictures

very proud that you are my sister. Everyone kept saying; "She
really painted that!?" I made the one funny family photo

completely at PEACE!

love your spiritart! It`s so seldom to see true spiritart, made
from feelings and energy, and not from technique and knowledge
of symbols and color / light! And so great to see that you are
so close to nature and earth in them! I love it! Really beautiful!
Keep up the good work, I`ll bookmark you!" ~ Lise Nilsen,

Micheal Teal , Canada ~ 8/7/03
July Testimonial:
"Just
a note to say, I really admire your 'primitive painting in Bob's
newsletter. I LOVE your tribal Kokopelli - type characters and
how they're busy making music and rain. Your clouds and lightning
bolts remind me of the big foreboding sign that I photographed
(in 1982) at the entrance to "Meta Tantay" - the late
Cherokee healer, Rolling Thunder's traditional camp in the Nevada
dessert." ~ Karie Garnier in Slocan, BC. ~ 7/22/03

"Thank
you so much for allowing me to participate in your lease/purchase

true spirit of our equine friends is simply inspiring!

a net search I found your terrific site. I love your loose style
and your colourful Watercolours. If your workshops were held
in Brisbane Australia I would be first in line to attend. I am
a retiree who paints in oil however I am anxious to return to

"We
stopped by the Markeim on Saturday to have a look-see before
your show ended. It looked great! You really had a lot there
- quantity-wise and diversity of style. Very cool. We're used
to seeing your work in a tent. It's pretty expansive when you
lay it all out. :-)" ~ Mary Sue Smith ~ 1/ 30/02
"Hi sandy,
just wanted to tell you again that the show looked wonderful.
the paintings were laid out very well, they "flowed"
nicely. I like the sailboat paintings also, I haven't seen any

wanted to follow up with you again to express my appreciation
for your contribution to the re-launch of my project website.
The feedback about the new site design and logo has been nothing
short of positive! I just can't express enough how much I appreciate
your work, your energy, and your graciousness. Letting me use
'White Buffalo Woman' on the site and adding the moon gave the
image just the right energy for an empowering logo for our project
and website. I truly believe you are a powerful role-model and
I'd like to share your story with others. Our newsletter is a
super way to do this, and it will be forever archived on our

Testimonials:
"Enjoyed
visiting your gallery, and other links on your website. (I visited
about 95% of them.) Connected to Monte, and the two Tony's. Impressed
with the fluidity - similar to yours . Enjoyed your workshop
story - again impressed with your recall and writing. I expect
you'll be starting on a book, one of these days. Thought about
which paintings I enjoy the most, but can't really make a choice.
As with Monte, I do like your compositions. Recall the cave compositions
most clearly, next the florals. All in all, I really enjoyed
the gallery finger-walk and how your web-site flows. Your writing
tone makes me, the reader, feel like you're talking to me directly
- good work. You and It, (the website)
just keep getting beter, and better, and better." ~ Sandy
Tucker ~ 10/16/01
"Sandy's

July
Testimonials:
"Your
web page is fabulous. You must have worked really hard to get
that up and running. When did you start with the abstracts? I
loved them! The pueblo landscape was really great too. You just
keep turning corners and finding more ways to express yourself.
Don't listen to those people who want you to put yourself in
a box with a "look". You are a free spirit when it
comes to art--you NEED to go all over the place. How boring to
settle on one thing and one way to do it--that's for people with
no imagination." Bobbie Zurbach ~ 7/11/01

First Cave Art Testimonial:
Hey Sandy! I love it!
After the Medford Art Festival
on June 4th, I came home and looked at your new Cave Art piece,
but I didn't have time to email. So, I'm playing catch-up today,
and imagine my great surprise when I went back to look today
and found 6 MORE PIECES! You go Girl... I really do like them. They are so inspired. There
is something very spiritual and "other worldly" about
them. This is really a great series for you. A wonderful body
of work.I hope your inspiration keeps coming through. ~ Rita
