Description
when I heard of the passing of Valou, Valerie Ducom, my heat sank..... so young, so gifted... caring and full of laughter.... had nothing to say except ... good bye for now.
this is a re-post of an earlier image that Val liked. she said it reminded her of how she felt around her horse.
celebrate her life, or mourn our loss... just remember.
Ride Free, Dear One, until we meet......

A beautiful tribute to Valerkie, one I know she is looking down on and remembering....she was not only an artist so loved by so many, she was a friend, a true friend and missed so much....
A simple and sober "Comic style" Poser Render, but very well done, elegant and beautiful image⦠True that she really looks like very much our dear Valerie! Her death was for so many of us a terrible shock as I said also in my last post. Have a nice weekend nevertheless.
