Thump! Thump! Thump!

Jimmie,

That's just me jumping for joy for your well deserved award.

I cannot imagine what you could do if you actually got some sleep!

Hey, thank you Sharon!

How wierd, I just sent you a PM because I had'nt heard from you in a while. Spooky.

That would be horrible! If I ever got sleep, I would'nt be able to do anything.

Jimmie,

I saw your winning drawing as I perused ARC the other night when I accidentally "found" the section on the winners! I was totally surprised and so happy for you! I can't think of a person who deserves this more than you. Talent abounds!!

Congratulations to you guy!

Denise

So this is what happens when I'm offline for a couple of weeks! If that's the case, I'll break my computer for Jimmie's sake!

Can I say that I'm not surprised? I'm just glad you entered the competition. If you had told us that you'd done so, I would have immediately asked what you were going to do with the prize money. (And, by the way, I'm using the proceeds of a recent sale to pay my taxes. Taking care of the practical things helps an artist more than an impulse purchase or hedonistic binge.)

My heartiest and most sincere congratulations, Jimmie. Spread the word. That's not bragging - it's business.

Wow, Jummy those late nighters that you pull have paid off in a great way.

Your drawing is not only inspiring but you have managed to bring a unique quality to the fore and you have raised the bar to all draughtsmanship lovers, students and admirers. You also have managed to show the beauty of the pencil. Well Done!
