Thanks so much guys!!!

I heard the good news couple of weeks back, but was kinda embarassed to mention it. Felt bad for Beth cuz she wanted to pop the news but I asked her to wait. Now that I'm here, I can show off then and say I also got finalist for 'angelina'.

What was real cool was that the same week I won a Winsor Newton award for 'ling' at the Ridgewood Art Center in Jersey. I think I might also be in the second "How Did You Paint That" from International Artist Magazine that came out this week.

Before anyone thinks my head might grow, I'm really starting to hate the shirt on my recent pastel, so that'll keep me grounded.

I don't think my drawing was one of the best technically, but I think it was one of the only that made eye contact so it must have been the emotion thing. Either way, the money will help pay some bills.

Thanks again everyone and to Terri for starting it.
