And the Peoples Choice Award Goes To

Mary Zimmerman, for Abstract 1!!!!!!

Hi All,
I can hardly believe it. Wow what a night. Thank you all for your support and of course the Man upstairs.

Now: The Annual Regional Fine Arts Show (June 3-28, 2013) sponsored by the Lincoln Gallery and Thompson Valley Art League was great. I won 1st. place for “Abstract 1″ in the Mixed Media category and I won the People’s Choice Award for “Abstract 1 “ also. Ribbons and checks were issued for both. I melted as I was deeply touched, and dedicated this win to my sister Pat, who always had my back.

The juror who judged the show was Diane Edwards a Master Pastelist with the Colorado Pastel Society . She’s got a BS and MA in Art and Education and of course has her own fantastic career.
Wanted to share a couple of comments she had about “Abstract 1″.
” The painter has brought the shapes off the edges in a very interesting way. The
colors are very well placed.. It is an exciting use of color. It could be hung in a
totally different direction as well. It is a really nice piece and has great contrast.”

Well that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Hope all is well with every one!!!
