La Vie Claire magazine beckons you to enter and escape to place of beauty and wonder.
Read what some of our readers have to say:
The Road to Hana
What a surprise that just came to me. I received an original watercolor based on one of the photos Doug Merriam took for the La Vie Claire magazine article about me and Hana (“The Road to Hana,” Summer 2008, left & above). The artist, from Camas, Washington, is a complete stranger to me. She wrote, “I saw a piece in a current magazine about you and for some reason I was compelled to paint you. I had fun working on the piece and hope that you will like it too. It is a watercolor painting, but I am experimenting with new varnishes to be able to do away with glass in the framing process. Take Care.

I am so amazed by the wonderful responses that have come to me from the article. A teacher in an orphanage in Kenya wanted my children’s stories to read to her students, and when I sent them, she bought stuffed animals to represent each character in the stories. A woman from Utah flew to Maui just to meet me and buy my work. Beautiful cards in the mail, again from strangers. Thank you all once again for your creativity and including me in your vision.
