I can only echo what everyone else has said! I think I would agree about it being the best of your drawings that I've seen. The overall feel, expression, line quality, and--well--everything about it is wonderful. A well-deserved award. Congratulations!

Thank you David and Natalie! ;)

The reception and awards ceremony was yesterday and I was so pleased to discover I won Third Place! I have to add that one of our own, Amanda Grosjean had a beautiful self portrait in the show. Nice to meed you Amanda!

Congratulations!

No one has more heart than you Patty. Well deserved!

I'm choked up! Thank you my friend and teacher!
