    all have info, or links that point to more info, about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by her used here.

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #2153 (March 6, 2019) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment. 

    P.S. She becomes the 1,000th named artist (38 unnamed artists so far), and coincidentally, the 38th female artist used here.
