This is a winner in the making. I'm crossing my fingers.
Just in case, I'll send chocolates to the judges! Let us know as soon as you know!

Here's my news about this painting: it took an Honorable Mention and a Jury Top Fifty award. Click on this link to Greenhouse Gallery to see more winners, including a couple of Kim Dow's paintings (go, Kim!). So many good paintings by terrific artists are on those walls, I am excited to have one of my own up there, too.

(Edit: I just spotted this - Forum partcipant Jonathan Hardesty won an award for his still life, congratulations Jonathan!)

I probably wouldn't have entered this painting without the encouragement of these posts on the Forum and so ... very sincerely... thank you all again.

Bravo!!!

Green House Gallery! Wow! One of the best galleries in the country - a wonderful, fabulous gallery to show your work. Recognition here is well-deserved. Heart - felt congratulations to you, Linda.

Carol

PS It's way too sexy a painting to show your husband. You really should keep it secret from him!!!
