I must say, 2009 has been a good year for me so far! First of all, as I was clearing away some odds and ends from Christmas, I came across a raffle ticket that I'd forgotten all about -- and much to my amazement, it was the winning ticket! The prize -- an original watercolor by Maryland artist David Daniels, from whom I had taken a workshop many years ago. Here's a link to the painting I won, and to David's website; MrWatercolor. It's a beautiful thing, I can't believe it's mine.

Secondly, I was contacted by a local recreation center which was interested in buying local art. Now, there is nothing I like more than a buyer who seeks me out! They bought two works, no quibbling over the price, the works will hang in a public space.... what more could you ask for?

All of this as I'm still basking in the glow of last year's "Excellence in the Arts" award! I had a link to the info on another website, but they went and moved it (how wude). So when I get a chance I'll add it to my bio section. It was a pretty big deal, so of course I'm embarrassed by it.

I still haven't had much time to update this website; running the Manassas Art Guild consumes every free moment I have, and then some. But I've finally added the most current exhibit schedule. I'm scaling back on exhibits a bit this year, and concentrating on staying local for awhile; but Manassas is a pretty nice place o visit, if you'd like to take in an art show.
