Happiness is … rowing down a river full of rainbow colored memories of magic afternoons with your trusted dog at the helm … ‘Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream!’

  4. Dear Kim,
    You are a beautiful talented lady. I read how you were treated at the Oscars and it absolutely broke my heart. My mother named me after you; I was born in 1966. I didn’t realize you had such a talent of painting! I love “Life is but a Dream.” How beautiful! You are a beautiful lady inside and out – I was bullied terribly in school because I am so fair complected; it tormented me for years. Just know you are special, talented and you are loved! Stay strong lady! Remember – the haters hate because they don’t even love themselves! Love Kim 🙂

  5. Good Morning, Ms. Novak.
    You are a very talented artist. I am not sure which one I liked the best. Although, “They Left Laughing” choked me up. What a special event and you captured it so beautifully. After reading what you wrote it made me think of my parents, aunts and uncles that have passed on before me.
    The poem with your painting “Once Upon A Time” spoke to me. As a young girl I often thought about trees, still do, and wondered which one I would be.
    Whenever I am being spiritual I am near a body of water, which if often. Lucky me. “Life Is But A Dream” reminded me of those times talking with God and, I am always asking what do you want me to do now?
    And, I have to say, “Mountain Man” is so detailed it belongs in a museum. Absolutely outstanding.
    I wish you well.

  6. Nice work Kim! I’m an artist also and want you to know that I enjoyed your art work and am so happy for you that you’ve found an outlet for your creativity. I also want you to know how much I enjoyed seeing you again as an Oscar presenter. I’m 68, so you’re a few years older, but seeing you when I was a teenager going to the movies was such a treat. I thought you were so beautiful and elegant and I loved your soft voice. I’m not gay but you sure were eye candy for me in the theater! You were beautiful then and you will always be beautiful. I missed seeing you in movies when you walked away from Hollywood but I think you saved your soul in doing it.

    Just wanted you to know,

    Cynthia Cameron
