My recent painting, "Look At Me" was selected for the Beverly Art Competition and Exhibit. I am extremely excited and honored to be included in this exhibit!!The reception is November 5th, from 7-9pm for anyone in the Chicago area. Yea! Now I'm off to celebrate :)
Spectacular Karen! All right with you if I share this beauty and your showing with my readers?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Well deserved! I love all those bows!! And the colors are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI had to mention you, with your link, in my post today, because I painted a ribbon (not successfully, I admit) and yours are so beautifully painted. I admire your work!
All these tones of blue make a really compelling piece. You really master the art of the ribbon, if i may say so. BRAVO, Helen

Congratulations!!! That is so exciting. Take good care of her - can't wait until she comes to her new home!
