Here are some comments about Billizetti's post:
"Bill nailed Constance's artwork with his words."
"Yay! God's power...love it! I would like to know how Constance did the art work (what medium)."
"Both Constance's art and Bill's poem are powerful pieces. I want to return to it over and over again."
"This contest was practically impossible to vote on, because they were all so brilliant! But I love how Bill picked up on such small details in Constance's artwork and incorporated them into his writing. It is a very synergistic collaboration!"
