Highly Commended

Okay - tonight I was awarded a Highly Commended prize for my art at the Royal Canberra Show

Kristin won 2 First Prizes..... go Kris

I am very happy..... and just a little tiddly (celebrating)

Entered the Canberra Show

Well I did it - I have entered Billabong Symphony at the Canberra Show

Billabong Symphony

I like this piece but it doesn't fit with the work I am doing for the exhibition and it really catches the eye....so it is now at the showground.

I went through the 'is it good enough' thing on Friday .... but I got over that pretty quickly - I saw other works there too and I thought mine is very different to that and different is absolutely okay.

Kristin also put in 3 framed photos so we are both doing great! Keeping my fingers crossed for Kristin and my works that we sell some and get some recognition

I am about to start on the Canberra Times Outdoor Show piece........ I have the plan and am ready to begin - I just need lots of hours now!

Cheers

I think I have found a gallery for an exhibition

As most of you know I am planning an exhibition next year and wanted to find a light and airy gallery for it

A few months ago we went to ANCA in Watson and it looked good but there were so many people at the opening there it was hard to tell....

So today we visited it again and had a chat about size , it is perfect for about 25 - 30 paintings and the light factor - plus it is white - good foil for my work

So I will put in a prospectus and see how I go...... it isn't too expensive and they don't take a commission - only drawback is that I have to arrange being there for two weeks while it is open - there goes 2 weeks of leave.

But it looks good so hopefully I will pass the initial test ..... exciting - O will let you know how I go

Here's hoping, keep your fingers crossed
